Thank you my kilted wonder friend! Friar, I am so glad your mom is fine! This situation will have a happy outcome too, thank God. As for the other stuff, well HA I've got a blog and I'm not afraid to use it. lol! Ulla, your healing place sounds beautiful! I love cloud watching. It is so calming watching them float across the sky. However, I think I would enjoy much more on a terrace in Denmark. ;-) Joanna, thank you for the compliments on the writing! I used this opportunity to veer from the usual and take a chance with my public writing. I appreciate your encouragement. I love what you said about the shifting perspective. I am going to remember that as it such a lovely truth. Brad, thank you for the kind words and the Zemanta tip! I started using it and love it. I had planned to drop back in on that post to update you. I've done 2 posts so far with it and it rocks! Thank you also for sharing your coping strategies. Prayer always helps as does the support of family (as opposed to"family") and friends. Thank you Brad!

The past can be a heavy burden. You can't change it, you can't escape it, all you can do is ride out the storm. When I'm down I seek out family and friends, which always lifts my spirits. Prayer keeps me on an even keel, too. People sometimes equate prayer with asking for things, but I find meditative prayer and prayers of thanksgiving quite powerful. PS ... Nice Zemanta photo!

I hope you get some peace from writing the words. Please know that you change things for others by writing them. Like others, spending time in the vastness and beauty of the natural world helps (interesting we've highlighted big seas and skies - maybe to shift perspective?) Being a cat person I'd also have to say I couldn't have got through the last 10 years without cats! Take care Karen Joanna Joanna Youngs last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ConfidentWriting/~3/351466017/guest-post-at-t.html" rel="nofollow">Guest Post At The Middle Zone</a> Karen, what a beautiful piece of writing, even if written about a hard time.
