Hi All.

Seems it may be time for a success story. Most the old timers know Lostva's Story quite well. It's a true inspiration and good read.

God Bless,
Jo

I cried all the way through this thread...<p>I, too, will plan A FOR LIFE...<p>I have been inalterably altered by this and WILL NEVER return to my 'former' self...<p>If you don't change the way you do things, you'll always get the same results.

Jo, <p>This is just the boost I needed- I can't thank you enough for posting it. I have very little contact with my H at this time, and I have been debating whether to send him a light letter now and then. I now have my answer. Thanks again!<p>AS

Lostva's story is one of my favorites. She did good. She's a wonderful, strong lady.

Thank you so much for this thread. I just lost it here in my office as I experienced the hope and the joy that is possible for me. Lori, you are an inspiration. And you gave me clarity about how this may happen, slowly, gradually, building to a crescendo, in God's time, not mine.<p>What came to mind throughout your post, Ro 12:12<p>"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faitful in prayer".<p>Thanks, all, and God Bless.

Thanks Resilient, I really needed this one, I am going to print it out tonight- I have read it before, and it is such good sense... funny I have not had much lately, I have kind of acted like a screaming kicking 2 yr. old at times, or a crzy low self esteemed person, but I am coming back to me.<p>Thanks to all of you folks, as you are really helping me out even more than you know.<p>Hugs, HONEY
