To All Who Love HimO God of the Universe, you shed your glory, your majesty, your omnipotence to become human, as Jesus Christ-- to get close to us, to connect with us, to be our role model and guide for living. O God of the Universe, you became the human Jesus Christ, to know us, to feel all we feel, to show us how much you love us by taking within yourself all our sins. O God of the Universe, you felt not just one person's pain but the pain of all of us, to wash us clean and bond with us, your creation, your children. O God of the Universe, you proved your trancendent holy power by rising from the dead, a sign that all of us who believe in You will also rise to be with You eternally. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the "Happy" in "Happy Easter." Happy Easter to all those who love Him. (By Joanna Fuchs) - www.poemsource.com/Christian-easter-poems.html

Thanks for the Easter greetings, itchin. Pretty quiet here in the big city. Bananny, that is an awesome, beautiful and inspiring picture of Jesus with the helmsman in distress in the storm. 22122

Happy Easter Everyone and may we all keep our "will and strength to survive" and our and love for mankind, and always strive to be the best we can be. toni, A good sentiment to live by. Not everyone is nice, though and some even "mean spirited" at times. Our family members can be especially trying because unless they have Morgellons, one's behaviors are simply out of line according to them and they looks they give you. I think we all have our moments when our patience is tried, though. But we really have to stand up for ourselves even if others get mad at us and that is the striving to be the best we can be, for sure though it may offend someone else. We have to remember this with our doctors who might not see us in a kind light judging us as "one of them". For those of us with Lyme, there are "Lyme rages" I have heard about. Drivers have gotten a bit more antagonistic lately driven by being in a hurry, I think. Maybe they have "Lyme on the brain" and don't know it. Thanks, toni, for those words. 22122

My parents, sister & her kids where good & then they weren't. I felt sad for them, I felt sad for all of us. To love & to be loved is the most beautiful thing to me, without it I don't think I could survive - it hurts really bad too. I'd be lost without my family. Itchin

itchin, I am so glad you had good people in your life. Not everyone has had that but even with the so called "bad" people, there have been lights of Heaven in them to make it worth while. No one is 100% bad or evil but sometimes a family of origin can be rather trying. I have this book I am reading "How to Survive the Loss of a Love". There is some brilliant and inspiring poetry throughout by Peter McWilliams who is one of the authors. Some are so funny too: I sat evaluating myself. I decided to lie down. ------------------------------------ 22122

I love her, but as I said to my mother & sister - I will love her more when she is dead. I've asked my partner to buy me the book for my birthday, which is coming up in a couple of weeks. Reading the table of contents told me I'm ok & on the right path. Thank you 22122

Since morgellons symtoms puts us in such a stress, I found the book helpful and will keep it out just to cheer me. I kind of get afraid to live my life and it reminds me, its ok to falter a bit. We are human and we are on earth school so not too worry, itchin. Parents, grandparents and children know how to push buttons. They find ones we never knew we had. 22122
