TR,<p>Just wanted to let you know that over the months I have admired your wisdom, your advice and your friendship. <p>I have admired the way you raise your children.<p>I have admired your independence.<p>I especially admire your kindness towards everyone.<p>I also want you to remind you that there are going to be those people out there that are sad, angry and bitter, and from time to time you will meet them and they will say mean things to you just for the sole purpose of hurting you. Why? Because they are miserable and they want you and anyone that is happy to be miserable too.<p>Our goal.....(the nice people of course [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] ) is to remember that we don't have to be sucked into their anger, bitterness and jealousy...we can choose to ignore. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Yep, I'm sure you already know this, but I'm reminding you...just in case you needed a reminder. [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <p>ANNA

Anna, <p>Thank you for your kind words, but they don't get to me..my ex is the same way..which is the main reason I am no longer married..<p>I also understand that some people do not in anyway shape or form know God's love nor live under His grace..many still live under the law.. they do not fully comprehend the love God has extended us..as sinners..I know I didn't fully comprehend it either until I went through this mess..I understood on one level..but I didn't fully comprehend it all..<p>I actually sent an e-mail to someone about this very thing this morning..so it's okay..I know and fully understand the spiritual context of whats going on..and I'll have to share that e-mail with you [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Again..thank you for your kind and loving words..<p>I sent you the portion of the e-mail I was refering too..it's kinda like..but I think you'll enjoy it..<p>[ April 09, 2002: Message edited by: ThornedRose ]</p>

Anna,<p>Good morning...<p>And your welcome for the e-mails and I'm glad you found them insightful..<p>I know that when I first began understanding those things it was like 'WOW' this is what the 'more' is supposed to be like..and I found great comfort in that..<p>And I feel that is the Wonderful news that others wish to share..it's not the condemnation that they are sinners..but the peace you find when the 'what
else' is understood...
