"Inaction breeds doubt and fear.

Action breeds confidence and courage.

If you want to conquer fear,

do not sit home

and think about it.

Go out and get busy."

~Dale Carnegie

 

       

 

 

ABCD,

I love your 'to-do' list.

Time for me to get out my calendar and

start filling in those blanks. 

There's something satisfying about writing down

a day's activities. 

My calendar serves as my journal.

How are you?

Sending hugs and loads of gratitude to you for your

sensitivity.

Love,

Ins

“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.”

― Henri J.M. Nouwen, Out of Solitude: Three Meditations on the Christian Life

"BELIEVE IN YOURSELF"

 

Believe in yourself -

in the power you have

to control your own life, day by day,

Believe in the strength

that you have deep inside,

and your faith will help

show you the way.

Believe in tomorrow

and what it will bring -

let a hopeful heart carry you through,

For the things will work out

if you trust and believe

there's no limit

to what you can do.

Blue,

How are you doing?

That's a beautiful poem, and it really speaks to me

on many levels.

Self-doubt has crushed me many times.

This roller coaster ride of symptoms, plus

the challenges of every day life, can become

so overwhelming and wearing.     

I appreciate all encouragement and inspiration.

It means so much to me.

Thank you, so much Blue.

Sending hugs and gratitude.

Love,

Ins

I don't care too much any more what people think. Wish I had felt like that many years ago.

 

I plan to do whatever I fancy when this is all over.

 

Life is too short to worry any more!! 

 

Hugs, everyone

"Solitude is not something you must hope for in the future.

Rather, it is a deepening of the present, and unless you look for it in the present

you will never find it."

~Thomas Merton

FOR MY DEAR SWEET FRIEND INS,

 

THIS JOURNEY IS ONE THAT CAN KNOCK US TO OUR KNEES, CAUSE US TO BE FULL OF SELF DOUBT, STRANGLE US IN IT'S CLUTCHES, BRING ABOUT UNBELIEVABLE FEAR, AND EMOTIONS ON A LEVEL THAT WE DID NOT EVER THINK POSSIBLE.  IT CAN ALSO RENDER US HELPLESS TO THE POINT OF NOT BEING ABLE TO  GET OUT OF BED, TO TALK, TO LAUGH, TO FEEL JOY (ON ANY LEVEL) TO DOUBT OUR ABILITY TO GET BETTER,  AND OH...SO, SO MUCH MORE.

 

INS, IT IS THE DRUG TALKING....WE MUST NOT LISTEN.  WE TALK TO THE DRUG...IT DOES NOT TALK TO US.  IT IS EVIL!  YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL...IT IS THE DEVIL IN PILL FORM.

 

PLEASE HEAR ME...WHEN I SAY...

 

"YOU"

ARE NOT ALONE!

"YOU"

ARE HURTING AND HEALING!

"YOU"

ARE WOMAN AND STRENGTH PERSONIFIED!

"YOU"

ARE GRACE AND BEAUTY!

"YOU"

ARE VICTORIAN LACE AND FLOWERS!

"YOU"

ARE IMAGINATION AND LIGHT!

"YOU"

ARE SEXY AND STRONG!

"YOU"

ARE POETRY AND ART!

"YOU"

ARE MUSIC AND DANCE!

"YOU"

ARE FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE!

 

INS, I LOOK AT YOUR THREAD, AND I SEE "YOU" EVERYWHERE I LOOK. ALL OF THIS IS "YOU" AND WHAT "YOU" HAVE CREATED!  BY DOING SO, "YOU" HAVE BROUGHT (WHAT IS THAT YOU SAY) LIKE WITH LIKE.  WE HAVE ALL GRAVITATED TO THIS SPECIAL PLACE THAT MEANS SOMETHING TO EACH OF US.

WE ALL BRING OUR OWN UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE TO "YOU" AND "EACH OTHER" WHICH STRENGTHENS US "EVERYDAY"!

YOU SEE "INS" WITHOUT "YOU" THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THIS SPECIAL THREAD, AND THEREFORE, "WE" WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN JOINED TOGETHER.

"YOU" ARE A BLESSING....DON'T EVER FORGET THAT, AND "YOU" ARE LOVED!  BY MANY!

 

FOR YOU...I BRING LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP 

FLUTER

 

MERCY ME

"THE HURT AND THE HEALER"

 

[[Fl...]]

OKAY DAVE86...DID YA FOLLOW THE BREAD CRUMBS THAT I LAID OUT FOR YA?  HMMM, WELL?  DID YOU.

 

YOU JUST CAN'T GO WRONG COMING TO THIS THREAD.  TO DO SO WOULD BE TO GIVE YOURSELF A DAILY GIFT OF "FRIENDSHIP, STRENGTH, POSITIVITY, FUN, LAUGHTER, COMPASSION, UNDERSTANDING, AND YOU MAY JUST FIND YOURSELF BEING LIFTED UP"!

 

WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO COME GET A DAILY TRANSFUSION OF FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE ALONG WITH LAUGHTER....IT DOES A BODY GOOD!  TRUST ME 

 

GO ON DAVE...YOU CAN DO IT 

 

BIG HUGS,

FROM YOUR FLUTER FRIEND

[[Fl...]]

MORNIN EVERYONE,

 

POPPING BYE TO SAY HI!

 

I THINK OF EACH ONE OF YOU DAILY, AND I AM HOPING THAT YOU ARE FINDING PEACE...ALONG WITH MUCH NEEDED HEALING. 

 

HOW BLESSED AM I TO HAVE EACH OF YOU IN MY LIFE.  MAN, WHAT A GOD SEND. 

 

SENDING AN ABUNDANCE OF HEALING THOUGHTS TO EACH ONE OF YOU!  MAY YOU HAVE LESS SYMPTOMS, LESS PAIN, LESS OF WHAT EVER IT IS THAT IS SPECIFIC TO YOU, AND MUCH MORE OF EVERYTHING GOOD...INCLUDING SUPER HUGE PICTURE WINDOW AND MAY IT OPEN TO LOVE, LIGHT, HEALTH, FRIENDSHIP, ENERGY, JOY, PEACE, HAPPINESS, TONS OF LAUGHTER, AND A FREEING OF ANYTHING THAT IS WEIGHING YOU DOWN.

 

AND THERE JUST HAS TO BE MUSIC AND LOTS, AND LOTS OF IT

 

MANY HUGS, AND MUCH LOVE TO ALL,

YOUR FLUTER FRIEND

Hello all,

Yes Fluter I followed the crumbs, haha. Thank you for the trail. I know you enjoy this place and I do come here every few days or so and enjoy the supportive postings and the overall feel of friendship. Sorry I don't post very much on here as I am still overwhelmed by the newness of everything benzos but I do enjoy all the post in here. Thanks to all of you
