You and I must be birds of a feather (or pens in a pack as the case with writer’s may be). I completely agree with your thoughts on the matter. I keep going to my quiet place and doing what I can to make the water’s calm but right now… it’s difficult. It’s a very odd situation, I’ll be explaining it soon and hopefully easing everyone’s worries- promise. :) Thankies muchly for all your kind thoughts. I need all the ones I can get.

Without knowing the circumstances, it’s hard to know just what to say. Although it is hard to accept, sometimes, most of the time, the Universe delivers and/or provides experiences that we need for some reason that may not be clear until later, maybe even much later. Usually, what I do is seek a quiet place and contemplation, then go with my gut. Where we come from and what we experience helps to shape us, but how we respond and deal with those experiences is what counts. We are what we make of ourselves. I wish I could be of more help; I hear you hurt, I feel it in your words. Hang in there and know that I am sending good thoughts your way. ~LisaB.
