Lanterns of Wonder, Peace, Hope, and Healing...

Ms. Tabitha · 11-20-2011, 09:41 PM

For Betty ~

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy! our life, our sweetness, and our hope! To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vail of tears. Turn, then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us; and after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus; O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

Betty ~ I will surely miss you. I look back on our visits and the laughs we shared.
You were such a beautiful and classy woman, inside and out.
You touched my heart and I loved you so much.
May you rest in peace

Blessings to All for a Peaceful and Thankful week. Family gatherings can get us rubbing up against each other, rub lovingly...Blessed Be

Tonight I light a candle and say a prayer for my sister in spirit, T, and her family.

Her brother was killed at his home last night. Possibly over drugs. The investigators are still getting all their details together. The guy that attacked him still not found.

It was sad enough to see what drugs had done to her brother's physical appearance. But when he got into the meth and heroin, the flesh melted away from him. Skin and bones.

They have a rough time ahead of them.

Artdecogoddess · 11-22-2011, 10:43 AM

Lighting a candle for my brother... he is very ill and I am desperately worried about him. Pat - I love you, you are challenging and silly, gruff and oh so very human.

A very dear friend, well, she is family really, is in ICU awaiting her second angioplasty for a femoral blockage. Its impeding circulation to her foot, resulting in purple toes - never a good thing for a diabetic.

Please remember my dear Addie today.

Peach · 11-22-2011, 06:53 PM

I am asking all of you to light candles and remember a dear friend. Some of you may know, Wicked Suzi from the dash site. She passed on today, my heart hurts for missing her.

christie · 11-22-2011, 09:45 PM

Addie came through two stints (blockage in each leg) but did lose a blood vessel in her foot. They were able to restore circulation so we are hopeful she will have a full recovery. Please continue to remember her in your thoughts.

Ebon · 11-22-2011, 09:55 PM

For my brother in his time of grief....

miss entycing · 11-23-2011, 08:43 AM

keeping the flames soft, and brightly burning here, always.
for continued healing of heart, mind and soul.
for continued hope in strength, wisdom and truths.
for continued faith in closures, to remain closed-and to never go back.
for continued courage, to fly free from the inside- for myself.

brightest blessings my friends, always... and in all ways.

She is home resting now. Very grateful her son went back to rehab when he did and is available to actually be "present" and help her right now. I will talk with her later when she wakes up... and tell her how I think it is pretty nifty that with the balloon in her foot, she can now "walk on air".. soft smile and a mini-happy feet dance.

Huge heads up for those of us still smoking and especially those with any complications regarding diabetes. I have a quit plan in place and will probably ride her tush as much as I can from a distance to please quit also.

We ( my particular age group) are at that time when our close friends are beginning to feel the pains and sicknesses that come with getting older. In as much as I am able, I will be making greater efforts to be healthier for myself, friends and loved ones.

Thanks for warm wishes for our friend. She means a lot to me.

greeneyedgrrl · 11-23-2011, 08:58 PM

for my cousin... may she have compassion, may she have peace, may she be filled with love and understanding, may she be free from fear.

Hollylane · 11-23-2011, 09:05 PM

For Max and his mother.

Turtle · 11-24-2011, 12:18 AM

For friends and family, and for being able to go home when you have had enough.

Hollylane · 11-26-2011, 01:50 PM

For the elderly Golden Retriever that SoNotHer found dumped in the park today, unable to lift it's hind quarters.

For SoNotHer who happened to be in the right place at the right time to help the injured dog.

For the dispatch person who found someone to come help when all local animal rescue services were closed for the holiday weekend.

For the officers who volunteered to help on their day off to get the dog to a vet who could help.

And a big FU to the jerkface who dumped the gentle creature there instead of taking him to the humane society 3 miles away from the park, or to a veterinarian.

Tommi · 11-26-2011, 02:23 PM

Leigh · 11-26-2011, 02:46 PM

This is for one of My very best friends, Sharon, who was hospitalized in ICU today after having a major seizure. I don't know anything more at this time but no one can see her right now and I'm gonna be worried sick until I know that she is okay ~ I'm praying hard again for her, hoping she will pull through this :-(

Lady Pamela · 11-26-2011, 10:38 PM

Sending out love and light to all in need this night.

Also asking for a lil energy to be sent my way.
Just got out of the hospital and have a ways to go before I am back to normal.
Need a lil energy and healing to boost me.
Also I may have a blood clot in my arm from IV bursting my vein. Watching it tonight and hoping that is not an added issue...Thanks to all for assisting.
Been a tough battle but will get through it..smiles

Turtle · 11-27-2011, 12:38 AM

I pray for those who need healing as they go through medical challengers, I ask for care for those who have been abandoned, I wish smooth passage for those who have died, and I pray we all have the calm strength to be with these challenges and the people going through them...Blessed Be, Amen, and Ashe

Pat - I love you, you are challenging and silly, gruff and oh so very human. ADG __________________ [ Responsibility to yourself means refusing to let others do your thinking, talking, and naming for you...it means that you do not treat your body as a commodity with which to purchase superficial intimacy or economic security; for our bodies to be treated as objects, our minds are in mortal danger. It means insisting that those to whom you give your friendship and love are able to respect your mind. It means being able to say, with Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre: "I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all the extraneous delights should be withheld or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give. Responsibility to yourself means that you don't fall for shallow and easy solutions--predigested books and ideas...marrying early as an escape from real decisions, getting pregnant as an evasion of already existing problems. It means that you refuse to sell your talents and aspirations short...and this, in turn, means resisting the forces in society which say that women should be nice, play safe, have low professional expectations, drown in love and forget about work, live through others, and stay in the places assigned to us. It means that we insist on a life of meaningful work, insist that work be as meaningful as love and friendship in our lives. It means, therefore, the courage to be "different"...The difference between a life lived actively, and a life of passive drifting and dispersal of energies, is an immense difference. Once we begin to feel committed to our lives, responsible to ourselves, we can never again be satisfied with the old, passive way." Adrienne Rich
