Dear Mom

Mom:
First happy birthday to you! I love you so very much and sure do wish we were there. I know you will never see this message but it is in my heart. You are the best mother in the world. I know how badly you wish you could help right now but....we do understand. I know mom, if you had the money, you would help us. It's hard talking to you about this one on one because at times, I feel like a failure. At 47, I should be "grounded." I should be employed, my bills should be paid and it is humiliating for me. Things will get better. I have faith! You are a great mom. You taught us to be kind and considerate, to work hard and to live life. I've never met anyone in my life like you. Always with a smile, always laughing, always loving. It breaks my heart that at 67, you are home alone on your birthday. My gift to you....I am going to start looking for a job in Florida. I want to move us down close to you so we can spend, whatever time left we have, together. Happy Birthday, I love you so much!

My daughter's Sweet 16

My heart is broken, and if anyone can help me here, I will do whatever to pay you back, work it off, or whatever to make it right. My daughter is a good student, a sweet kid and she's turning 16 on Valetine's Day. I do not have extra money for what she wants for this special day. She doesn't ask for much, she is the most precious thing ever, and I am just heartbroken. I have 6 bucks to my name, but she wants something that costs $200. It;s a grey "Daydreamer" bag from Juicy. Please help... I have Cancer and might now have many birthdays left with her...Please...

Another birthday gone by....

This last Sat. was my birthday...just another day as things went. But I was a bit depressed by it's arrival and subsequent departure. It seems that the day just keeps counting the years till the end of my given time. The closer I get to the proverbial "hill" the more I dread the ticking of the yearly clock that pushes me ever closer.

I've looked behind me, at the descent of my health, the damage of stress and the deterioration of my physical abilities. Even my memory and sharpness mentally have been effected over the last few years.

I fight the inevitable, but I'm not some celebrity with truckloads of cash to go to some fancy "body shop" spa and get the wrinkles ironed out, the flab tucked or the assets lifted. The years of struggle, to carve out a niche and support my family have left telltale signs.

I used to dye my hair as blond as I could, seeking to recapture the sun bleached style of younger days. But also because I could hide the multiplying white hairs that began to appear...in blond hair I could call them highlights.

But the blond of my youth turned to the natural golden brown and at times I'd give in and let it take over. And with money tight I've had little choice. Now the snow and silver are slowly taking over and the darker chestnut and golden browns are often intertwined with snowy white and silver threads.

I know that I need to try and get myself healthier, but despite the countless visits to the doctor and test after test there is nothing solid to diagnose. A random number of things are wrong, but nothing to link it all together...though I believe that the high stress I've been under for several years may be a large part of the problem.

It is easier said that done to remove the stress from ones life. I've tried my best to keep my center, but financial issues and shortages are far too frequent now. With the lost income from my cousin and the rise in expenses, there's a huge gap in the going out and coming in columns. No matter how hard I try, I have to admit that I'm still floundering as I try to establish some way to make some extra income streams.

I'm hoping that I can keep my focus, reinvent myself and find a way to get ahead this year. I need to make changes; I need to increase my income and find a way to make the changes I want happen. I don't know how, but I need to find a way to move forward.

If I could find the things I need without the cash, I'd do so, but somehow in a world run on paper currency, I am stuck having to amass as much as I'm able to get things moving.

For those that has passed that mid-life marker, I salute your strength and dedication to press on to find a way to reach your goals and dreams. So many have found the path to reinvent themselves in the later half that proves, there's no decline in life after 50, if you choose to rededicate yourself to the journey.

I've some years left to try and recapture that passion and lust for the time ahead, to enjoy the experience and not dwell on the eventual end that lays on the horizon. There's a million memories, thousands of tears and tons of laughter still ahead. I just need to focus on the gift of the day and find the joy to look forward to the surprises of tomorrow.

Warm, Bright Blessings to all...

"Happy Birthday Ekikaseven"

Happy Birthday Ekikaseven,
Today is a special day for you and for all those that have the opportunity to love you. When the Lord created you He created a person with a big heart. You go that extra mile to make people feel loved and you have the ability to help the sun shine though in all situations. I can honestly say I have been blessed through you, and I am thankful the Lord loves me so much that He placed you in my life.
I pray that the Lord blesses you today with people you love, and special memories. I pray that God blesses you physically, Spiritually, and financially. I pray that all your prayers are answered according to God's will, and you feel His presence in a special way today.
Thank you for being you and thank God for creating you. You are loved and appreciated. Happy Birthday

Krishnas Birthday

Today, September first, is the day many Hindu's celebrate Lord Krishna's birth. It is a day that is often marked by the giving of sweets, so my husband brought me home sweet chocolate & oatmeal bars this morning. Today I am baking in return some sweet oatmeal filled bars. There are many stories available online on how various families celebrate, and all worth the reading.

Blessings my dear friends and Namaste-
Anora

Birthday for my son

I was wondering if anyone would be willing to send my son a birthday card. His birthday is  Nov. 8th and we can't really afford to have him a party but he is having on at school this friday (his teacher is throwing him a small party). For a gift from his brother, dad and myself, we are giving him a scrapbook. I had started him a baby book (birth until now) and just finished it. I know this isn't something he really wants for b-day but i put alot of hours and love into it.

But he loves getting mail, so i think cards from others would really make his day. If you would like to add a gift card., dollar or a small gift that would be great but just a b-day card is perfect. He is into spongebob, board games, bakugans and batman etc.

Thank You and God Bless

I am a first time grandmother living in North Carolina.  I have a son, daughter in law and granddaughter in Florida.  Her 1st birthday is in one week.  I am so desparetly trying to get there for her birthday.  I have no money.  I have a car to get there but no gas, motel, gift, food or anything else.  This is my only child.  I know other people have bigger problems that probably deserve more help but I would so much want to see my granddaughter.  Anything you can give would be greatly appreciated.  Perhaps motel credits, airline credits, rental car credits or cash.  If you can help, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thank you in advance.  I hope I can make it.

Update on Justin

Well, I feel very blessed today.  My son turned 18 years old yesterday and his birthday was very special.  There was so much love felt at his birthday party, I dont know how to explain it.  Maybe it is the fact that he is dying and it could be the last birthday we celebrate with him or maybe it was because he is now a man as they say you are at 18.  Whatever the reason, it was very heart felt and I will never forget it.

As for his health, things havent been so good for him. His blood is clotting and he has to have another av fistula surgery because the first one did not take.  He is having to take blood thinners now.  That adds 2 more pills to the 24 he takes on a daily basis just to live.  He is so strong and has been a trooper through all of this.  He was having a problem with anger, but that comes and goes along with being scarred.  We have had to face the fact that he is dying and its been hell for us all... But we move on and meet any battle we have to face together... Our love is stronger than any disease or any problems that come our way.
