This page is a little different then our usual ones,
you see as we travel down life's path
sometimes we get hit with situations
that one only reads about in the newspaper,
the kind that never happen to us.
Unfortunately this is such a fallacy,
because you never know when the ugliness
of the world is going to come
crashing into your world.
All you can do when it does,
is deal with it,
in the only way you know how to.
You will have to find the strength
deep down inside yourself, in the part you
never knew existed, to pool all your life
skills together to get through each day,
sometimes one minute at a time.
It's
in times like these that your friends,
family
and soul mates truly do save you.
You
lean on people, when leaning isn't
something
that comes naturally.
It's
with their love and
support
that you make it through.
So
I dedicate this page,
and
these songs to my family,
Sid,
Mel, Dianne, Janice, Mom & Dad
you
have been so supportive
and
loving through this,
has
meant the world to us.
To
my Ed,
my
soul mate, my life partner,
baby
without you I know I wouldn't
be
where I am today, your love and support,
for
the kids and me,
means
more to me then you will ever know,
or
more then I could ever say
to
Sharon,
who
is truly my twin,
my
best friend in this whole world,
I
don't know if you have any idea
of
what this story you sent meant to me.
It
truly touched my heart.
It
made me smile and cry,
when
I didn't think I could
do
either anymore.
so
I hope you don't mind my friend,
but
I had to share it with everyone.
I
love you bestests,
more
then I could ever show you.
Thank you all, and I know that a simple "Thank You" will never show you the love that I hold in my heart and soul for all you.
All
my love, always
Cathy

TWENTY DOLLAR BILL
A well
known speaker started off
his
seminar by holding up a $20 bill.
In
a room of 200, he asked,
"Who
would like this $20 bill?"
Hands
started going up.
He
said, "I am going to give this $20
to
one of you
but
first, let me do this."
He
proceeded to crumple the bill up.
He
then asked,
"Who
still wants it?"
Still
the hands were up in the air.
"Well,"
he replied, "what if I do this?"
And
he dropped it on the ground
and
started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.
He
picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.
"Now
who still wants it?"
Still
the hands went into the air.
"My
friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson.
No
matter what I did to the money, you
still
wanted it because it did not decrease in value.
It
was still worth $20.
Many
times in our lives, we are dropped,
crumpled,
and ground into the dirt
by
the decisions we make and the
circumstances
that come our way.
We
feel as though we are worthless.
But
no matter what has happened
or
what will happen,
you
will never lose your value in God's eyes.
To
Him, dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased,
you
are still priceless.
The
worth of our lives comes not in
what
we do or who we know
but
by WHO WE ARE!
You
are special - Don't ever forget it!
These
songs are by a canadian singer,
by
the name of Susan Aglukark from
Northern
Canada and her music
truly
brings chills down my spine.
I
hope you enjoy her music as much as I do.
These
are from her album called "THIS CHILD"
I
have added some of my favorites from it
