A place for random thoughts....

Ahh, NJ, what a great place to live ...

Texting While Walking Banned in NJ Town

 

Thanks to those who said an extra prayer for my cousin who was dying of pancreatic cancer. After her year and a half battle, her bones betrayed her and became so brittle from the radiation and chemo-therapy that she opted to stop all treatments after she broke her pelvic bone and was told that she would not be able to walk. She passed away over the weekend at her home, outside of Atlanta, surrounded by her family and friends.

Damn cancer is all I have to say.

:cry:

 

YUM ....

I finally gave in to my craving of a candy bar ....

A WHATCHAMACALLIT .....


It was Delish ! :lol:

 

:grouphug: So sorry to hear this. Thoughts and prayers for all of you.

 

I'm very sorry for your loss Tassy. :grouphug:

 

Why is it that people who have an evil soul and constantly put others down are believed and prosper but those who honestly want to do the right by everyone around them are the ones who get left behind?

This has always been an issue for me....

 

I try not to let stuff like that bother me; karma has a way of catching up with folks like that.

 

May God touch you and your family with His peace which is beyond all understanding. I pray that He comforts all of you. So very sorry & sad for your loss!!

 

Your question is not alone. I have pondered this thought many times and have most often come to the conclusion that, life is just not fair & that God never said it would be, but He did say He would always be there for us.

Yet still, I struggled with the times when good people die while seemingly evil people live on. I have had all of my life to ponder this question due to my Dad & his wickedness.

So I say to you, my thoughts are that those who "accept Christ" might go early while those who do not yet get it, perhaps, God, in His infinite mercy, gives them extra time in hopes that they will eventually "accept Christ". I know I hope my Dad will.

I believe that God is full of infinite mercy. Maybe He is just showing mercy to some in hopes that they will come to Him. Who knows why He takes the ones who have accepted Him. But because they have done so, they will live forever in His love.

All of that being said, losing a loved one is such a horrible pain & I do not make light of it. Our loved ones are gifts!!

 

To put a positive spin on this... being left behind might be a blessing in disguise. It may mean that there is another opportunity in the future. I do believe there is a reason for everything that happens (or doesn't happen) in our lives.

 

:iagree: So sorry for your loss.

 

I'm so sorry, Tassy. Cancer is cruel.

:grouphug:

 

Tassy, I'm so sorry for you and your family's loss. I definitely agree with the damned cancer!

 

Thanks everyone, extra thoughts and prayers are more comforting than you know.

:grouphug:

 

SO sorry tassy!!

 

Aww Tassy, I"m sorry for your loss



s/n I guess I should be thrilled that I got gas for $3.47/gal? :?

 

Tassy, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I agree, damn cancer.

 

Has anyone ever really seen a full grown sesame?

 

I've asked the same question about a full grown brussel.

 

Thanks y'all.... we drove up to Atlanta (Alpharetta actually) from my moms in FL today, 9 hrs - 600 miles. Wake tonite, funeral tomorrow. :cry:

s/n - Then back to FL on Friday to finish helping my mom get moved. I'm just happy to be able to spend a nice chunk of time with her and consider myself very luck to have such a happy & healthy mom. :hurray:
