I love what you said about "my heart...Camara, <br />I love what you said about "my heart had not hardened and my soul had not withered." <br />It is easy to let your heart harden and your soul wither. <br />But you didn't take the easy way. <br />YOU really are a strong woman. <br />When some people go through what you have been through they get hard and cold and their soul withers and they close away that chapter in their life and never re-visit it. They avoid others that are dealing with challenges because it reminds them of what they have been through.<br />And don't you keep looking for others to help when nobody would expect you to do that after all you have been through but you do! You feel the pain of others and choose to help rather than to turn away.<br />You are a strong and very good person you are a woman that all mom's want their little girls to grow up to be like. <br />(((Hugs)))<br />CindyGr8Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09744116137088882820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541570168728565652.post-24501437514201005012012-01-04T11:24:43.525-08:002012-01-04T11:24:43.525-08:00Boy do I ever know what you mean. This is how I f...Boy do I ever know what you mean. This is how I felt for you from the moment that I met your eyes when I walked in to 3M3 back in - what was it, March? April? May? I can't even remember - until you got your feet back under you for real just a handful of weeks ago. <br /><br />People misunderstand 'empathy'. I think they mix it up with sympathy... with feeling "sorry", and "wishing there was something they could do." These are noble feelings as well, and not to be diminished, but if they think that this is empathy, they are wrong. <br /><br />This energetic absolute that you describe is empathy. The power of FEELING what this person is going through, and being completely unable to hold yourself back from lending them your strength, even at risk to your own well-being. I think we all have this gift, but we have forgotten it, or buried it deep somewhere and don't let it out. <br /><br />It doesn't have to be this awesome and terrible thing either... it can be lovely to share sweet and playful moments too, in this way. :)<br /><br /><3mrs mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04609428980766748600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541570168728565652.post-51920535380207560612012-01-04T11:19:19.545-08:002012-01-04T11:19:19.545-08:00You are an amazing woman!

Your strength and compassion are an inspiration to me to be a better person, more loving, more caring, more accepting and more compassionate.<br /><br />Anaya's life has touched so many people already. Her smile and her life will continue on forever in the lives of the people you are touching.<br /><br />I love you and I am proud to call you my friend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
