Yes, it is making a difference in my health. I still have problems but not as bad. I've also starting taking a multi-vitamin, calcium and adding cinnamon to a lot of things and my blood sugar started going down. That helps a lot. (I read an article about cinnamon that says it could possibly cause blood sugars to go down so I thought I would try it and see) I'm not sure which of those things is helping most so I'll just keep taking them all, lol.

And yes, WM, I think Gil's doing great on the non-smoking too. I know how hard that one can be and I'm very proud of him. I'm also very proud of you. You're doing very well yourself. :kiss: You too, Don. :rose:

Kiki,

What I want to communicate to you, I communicate for no other reason than the pain you have felt and have experienced is pain that I can connect with and I want to say something to you that I hope you take the time to really REALLY understand.

You are NOT your past !!!!!

The experiences you have gone through are just that, experiences you have GONE through. Not what you are living now.

The fear you feel is real, VERY real and I totally acknowledge the fear you feel on a daily basis is one that controls every ounce of what you do and how you behave. However, the strength you have gained from surviving is strength that no individual can remove from you. It is also strength that you can nuture and allow too overtake the 'pain' that controls your life.

The fact you have made your friend a promise tells me that you already have the courage, endurance and strength to get out of bed each day and face the world. Sure, some days are better than others. I'm sure there are some days you do nothing but cry. But on the other days, the days where you are around friends (such as the one that you made your promise too), those are the days that trully represent you as a person NOW. Those are the days where you give so much to those around you that THEY can not imagine life without you. THOSE are the days where your smile makes them realise just how lucky they are to know you. And it is those days my dear friend, that you need to realise, are the days that are slowly but surely re-creating your inner strength.

It is true that every single person has pain in this world. On some level, at some point, we have all experienced pain and been scarred from it. Some have had more than their fair share, and this is the truth with you. But the irony of the situation is, those that have had more than their fair share of pain and survived from it are the very same people that provide the most strength to those closest to them. They are the very same people that provide an insight into just how special life really is, how precious life can be, to those that don't quite appreciate it as much as they should each day.

Kiki, my communication to you is this. I am proud of you !!!
I am proud of you because you survived. I am proud of you because you ARE a survivor and you have chosen to keep on surviving. I am proud of you because the pain you have felt is one you can communicate to others about, just as you have done on this thread. I am proud because it is people such as yourself that make this world a little bit easier to cope with. For the simple reason, that all one has to do is know just how strong you are to also realise just how much potential I can have because of the strength you have.

Although the pain of my past isn't exactly like yours, it is very VERY similar on so many levels. Just reading your story gave me a solid slapping in the face. I'm one who has also survived. I am also one who has made a promise to keep on surviving. And I am so very proud of that promise. It took me many years to realise the courage it took to make that promise. The funny thing is, the person I made that promise too realised immediately how much that promise meant. Yet it was me who took so long too realise.

Believe me Kiki, please believe me when I tell you that not only are you someone special. But you are someone the world needs, because you demonstrate a courage and an integrity that most others can only read about. You demonstrate a strength that most others can only look at in awe.
But you demonstrate that courage, strength and integrity not because of the effect it has on others, but because you HAVE to be those things to keep getting out of bed each day and fullfilling your promise.

I am proud of you Kiki.

Namaste...,,,.,..,,,

Well said shmeghead . . . :) . . . Kiki is an inspiration to us all . . . welcome to Lit :)

And again. :D

Joining Noor & Kiki in bumping the thread back up.

On the up side there are no new posters so maybe no one needs the thread (what a wonderful thought but sadly so unlikely).


Leaving big hugs to those who want them.

Religion and abuse.
I've heard it asked "Why do so many priests/clergy become paedophiles?" I tell people they have it wrong, the question should be "Why do so many paedophiles become priests/clergy?"
The answer then is obvious, and so is the depth and determination of these scum.

This is a site that needs supporting.
