    VERY true. I smile and people often wonder what I'm thinking... then they start running in fear.

    Hey there Starty, I don't feel much like an Angel lately but thank you. Friend stood in the gap for me a few times and I told him earlier he was my Guardian Angel. Strange how friendships develop here in "Virtual Land", isn't it? Just look at you and I. A year ago or so, we knew nothing of each other and now we write e-mails, stand together on fun and serious things! What blessings I have had since arriving at AMHD!

    Rebbie, I feel the same way. You are all my friends, I don't know what I'd do without you. It's really strange, and hard to explain to others who haven't experienced it. I trust all of you, even though we've never met. I know you are all good people, and I am blessed to call you my friends. :) Great, now I have tears, jeesh. ;)

    M, now I'm really crying. Bad M, made Alty cry, not good. :(

    You all mean so much to me, what would I do without all of you?

    If only we lived closer to each other, I'd love to spend some real time with my friends. And then I could kick M's butt in darts or pool. ;):)

    Sometimes our hearts get tangled
    And our souls a little off-kilter
    Friends and family can set us right
    And help guide us back to the light.

    ~Sera Christann

    In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit. ~Albert Schweitzer

    Thank you, my dear friends (you know who you are) who have helped to re-kindle my inner fire. That inner-glow that is me. You helped me through the death of a dream and brought me out of a darkness that could have overwhelmed me. Yours is a friendship I shall always treasure. :)
