Something coming soon that I think you guys should check out...

I've had the good fortune of being befriended by this group of kids (well, I call them "kids" because I'm old enough to be their momma!). They open their journal once a year during the month of May, and their stories NEED to be told ( Read more... )

Added. Sounds like a wonderful experience in gratitude, and a reminder of how lucky I am that I've made it through without having to find myself in a similar situation. As for you, well, I more than believe it. & I send *Hugs* & applause for what you went through & the person you are today as a result!!

I totally agree about gratitude. These kids are just beautiful souls who happen to be in a "less-than-beautiful" circumstance... and the way they pull together and look out for each other... well, we can ALL learn something from them about loyalty and FAMILY, and how it's SUPPOSED to be. Whether it's family by "blood" or family by "circumstance".

It's the least I can do. You guys and gals have my UTMOST admiration and respect, and I just feel that it's my opportunity to give back just a little.

Perhaps one day we'll cross paths, and we'll all be able to sit down and just shoot the shit some afternoon. That would be ULTRA cool. :)

Peace. *hug*

oops, I forgot to mention... harleygirlsd April 12 2008, 18:17:15 UTC

I took the liberty of suggesting you guys for an LJ spotlight slot. I hope you don't mind/object, I just thought it was a good way to get the word out.

I just hope that the gods of LJ have enough common sense to wait and feature you guys *IN* May, ya know? *heehee*

I've been there since the beginning; neve regretted one minut of it.

I feel like I know many of them already, and I've never even met any of them in person yet.

They'e taught me so much, so very much.

I agree completely.

They teach just by being. Just as YOU do. You, too, have been an inspiration to me about overcoming obstacles and adversity.

I agree about feeling like you know many of them, I feel the same. *smile*

awwhe. :) ::hugs:: Thank you.

My goal is to meet some of them- if at all possible. :) but I suppose we'll have to see how it all plays out.
