DH, It is useless to live with regret. It serves no purpose. You came through for your family. That is the important thing. Your story truly reveals...You are a softy. Be proud of that. Hurry with the next part, please!

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful is the strong, brave wife of a strong, brave husband. Oh, that the world had more like you. I can imagine you are both the kind of people who though you have many more reasons to crab and complain can still wear a smile on your faces that will be an uplifting force for those around you. Thank God for your courage, your committment and for your ability to give so generously.

Evil can be found anywhere we choose. If this type of x-ray will stop terrorists from getting on planes with weapons, I am all for it. Our right to privacy is minimal in comparison to what evils a terrorist can spread.

Yes, xtine, we were coming back from ND and were around the Fergus Falls area as darkness became complete. It was then that I saw those beautiful lights that you described. I was happy I was not driving so that I could enjoy them for the remainder of our trip.

Reply to Spending The Day In Jail in Blogging JoeUser Forums

You have my admiration in this and many other things. Gossip is not a popular subject, but is a popular activity. I am glad that you are not one of those that loves to indulge in it. There are so many cohorts of that evil, not the least of which are deceit, malice, slander, arrogance, cruelty and pride. Those are hate filled things that the good Lord abhors. When evil comes out of our mouths, it is an indicator of what we hold in our hearts. “By their

Insighful. May this kind of wisdom spread far and wide. How anyone can let cloudy weather, a team's loss, a word of criticism, a broken nail, an imagined slight, a cancelled event, etc. bring on depression and worse is beyond me. There is always another day and it should not be spent lamenting about the past. Good post.

Difficulties Overcome in Religion JoeUser Forums

There were several male boarders who were older than I. They flirted with me constantly. One of them was especially obnoxious. One day, after he had made a very explicit pass at me, I lost my temper and slapped him a good one. Immediately, I was sorry and scared. He was a very bright lad and he recognized his chance to hold me hostage. He said that he would be telli

Living My Temporary Vows in Religion JoeUser Forums

Although I took my temporary vows in September 1947, I stayed in Spring Valley until January of 1948. I went to “finish” high school at Oakwood, ND where the nuns of our order ran a Catholic School. I was allowed to sit in the classroom with the other students but I was never called upon to answer questions or allowed to participate in any discussions. A

Your name is courage. You may still have your moments of fear or even self-pity, but I don't see those moods lasting too long.

Reply to I love.... in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

Oh how I can remember those same feeling that you express so well. I still remember vividly the first time I held my child in my arms. I held him close to me and tiny as he was he wrapped his little arms around my neck and held on tight. I will never forget that feeling of closeness and blessedness. What a gift a child is even when they are now grown and on their own.
