Embracing my Inner Me in progress

[Rita]

Grace, I am glad you spent your anniversary with a lot of fun and joy and love. And it is an important date! You gave your heart and soul on that day 28 years ago, you have been a loving wife for 28 years, that is a victory! What H does with that, did with that, will do with that, well, that's between him and God.

I am in the same boat with the pain of seeing a child in pain. I sometimes sit at the pieta at my church and just let myself feel that connection with another hurting mother, Mary. It's the only way to make any sense of it at all. Last year I was at a huge cathedral, crying at the feet of a pieta, and when I stood up after a long time, this woman, a tourist in my city, was standing there waiting for me, so she could hug me and tell me everything would be okay. I felt like Mary was sending me that message. (I wrote about this on one of my old threads.)

((((Grace)))))
