I am Sorry

<< < (2/2)

OBrenda:
My Brother Darren,

I think you just demonstrated, how you don't have to have a big vocabulary to know what is right & wrong.  I admire your being humble and honest and taking some personal responsibility to say your sorry.  I know some people who can speak with big words, have great knowledge and have the sensitivity of a rock.

But not all of them. Words are powerful.  They can build up and destroy.  They are a weapon for good and evil.  We are here at BT because of the importance of "Words" and their true meaning.  And the hours of study Ray has put into their meanings with dictionaries and such.  So although being smart about words doesn't mean you will have good character.  It still has it's importance.

If we grow up with people around us, putting negative labels on us, like your Fat, your Ugly, your Stupid etc...
We see ourselves as broken and not as good. At the same time something within us, pushes back at the idea we aren't as good as someone else.  And we react and think people are putting us down when they are not.

I have also been greatly blessed with your posts. I have learned many things in them.  A bad day here and there won't change my mind about how much I admire many things about you!

In His Love,
Brenda

OK enough, I am overwhelmed with emotions right now. All this is too much, I do however thank y'all. I must admit (and sorry for this) I never thought anyone much cared about my post or replays one way or the other, that is until this day. I realized that all of you are very special people with lots of love, and really care. Thanks for letting me in your family.

Thanks,
Darren

Darren, I have to let you know this. I suffer in alot of pain most of my life. It was one of those weeks. Well, my Mother and I both got into a dispute tonight she lives with me. My husband told us both to stop. So, then I went to my room like a little child. Had to talk to God. So, I went out and told her I was sorry and we kissed and she told me sorry.

But, I need to tell you what God made me think about. He made me think about you and the way you handled yourself. I believe you have been an example to many of us. It just, that I needed it now.

In His Love,
Marlene

Marlene: Thanks, I notice you said you were in suffer from alot of pain. Is the physical pain?

Darren

Marlene:
Darren, Yes it is physical pain. I have neuropathy from my diabetes. I have gout which is a form of arthritis. I have a degenerative disc disease and fibromalgia. They have used all kinds of things for the pain. But, I am afraid of narcotics. I have been at times where I would beg God to let me die. Then, it got to where when I was in pain I would say this is all I can take and he would lessen it. I am disabled now from it. There are days I can barely get up out of bed. There are days I make myself. I have all over body pain, burning, tingling and muscle spasms. I can feel for you.

Darren, in short time of being a member  here I have enjoyed getting to get to know you. You have often said something I needed to hear.

I will keep you in my prayers. I know what it is like to suffer. I even had my husbands family act like I am faking it. I have never had a doctor act that way cause they know what I have has driven some to take there life.

I have never wanted to take my life. But, I will tell you all this has kept me close to God. I love spending time with him. He will never forsake you.

In His Love,
Marlene
