Balm for the Spirit


My grateful heart fills.
Blessings received from my friends
soothe aching spirits.

We may never meet
beyond written words posted
on my blog pages.

You are still true friends
offering solace and hope
when it is needed.

We are discovering a new way for people with MS to finally hear each other in a forgiving medium where we have a safe harbor for our feelings, among true friends, Virtual friends, best wishes and hope the Peacemaker may find her Peace. <3 mary

HI JUDY - SO very sorry to hear of the battles you are fighting for your security and peace of mind as of late.I also was unaware your husband is ill. I am truly sorry that you have so much to carry. I am honored to be amongst those that share in the hope of your poems and I hope, as well, that my words to you bring you some comfort, perhaps strength and always, understanding.
Love to you
Gail
peace.....

In the virtual world distance is of no matter, because we are so very close ... I regard a lot of blog comments as virtual hugs, as they can be so powerful to read

At times, I, too, feel such gratitude for my bloggy friends. I know I'm surrounded by loving and caring family and friends, but sometimes, they just don't get it. That's when I turn to my virtual friends here, who always understand and offer encouragement. It's true, we probably never will meet in person, but in my dreamer's mind, I always see it happening!
Peace,
Muff

My gratitude extends to my male blogging friends too. I just could not find a suitable image.

Mary, Gail, Anne, and Muff,

With the cessation of the nonstop harrassing phone calls, the safeguarding of critical accounts, and reduced ID threat, I start to breathe more deeply. Ironically, I am now allowing myself to feel the fear fully too. But this is all far better than where I have been. Thank you for being a bulwark of support for me.,

I honestly don't think I could cope very well without my blog family. You are a part of that family Judy, and I thank you for all of your support, and wisdom.
I hope some light shines now for you and your hubby, after the dark days you have encountered.

Thank you, Karen. I feel the same way about you. I am honored to be part of your blogging family. I am still in shock but light is appearing to dispel it.
