Sadly, we are not allowed to do this any more and we are poorer for that because surely, everyone can use help now and then and yet, do not know how to ask for it in a socially acceptable way.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704768195528999087.post-61405394212026132582009-12-04T21:49:43.410-05:002009-12-04T21:49:43.410-05:00I don't think I would have known what to say.I don't think I would have known what to say.Traciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612857982151448455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704768195528999087.post-42962302002297920162009-12-04T17:18:04.272-05:002009-12-04T17:18:04.272-05:00I just read what your comments make you do....inte...I just read what your comments make you do....interesting! but what I wanted to say was...simply pray for her and her mother.Melanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167151300858497228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704768195528999087.post-46639834976571490712009-12-04T13:33:05.118-05:002009-12-04T13:33:05.118-05:00Wow!

There were days that I could actually sense that they were becoming different people before my eyes. It was a beautiful thing. Sometimes I saw them changing in ways that were heart breaking. <br /><br />I don't miss the paper work, the ridiculous meetings, the grading lame papers, the attitude and the violence, but I do miss seeing the good grow and praying for the hurting. I'm glad you got to be there to give a comforting touch. I hope you get the opportunity to be there again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704768195528999087.post-88925858934398852042009-12-03T05:41:37.550-05:002009-12-03T05:41:37.550-05:00This obviously is weighing heavy on your mind and ...This obviously is weighing heavy on your mind and heart for you to post this late in the day. <br /><br />I woke up at 4:20 a.m. this morning with a pain in my shoulder. I wondered if this wasn't the Lord's attempt to get my praying for others. A young teenager is having surgery in the same shoulder in a few weeks. I prayed for him and a couple others. Now I'm reading blogs and commenting trying to ignore the pain. :-)Corrie Howehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02107352260276921770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704768195528999087.post-26084202456420453472009-12-03T03:47:40.532-05:002009-12-03T03:47:40.532-05:00This made my heart ache.

But to watch them being devoured by the dark powers of society and the world ... is a different level of tough. <br /><br />I love your writing.
