rest, Karla. rest in the knowledge you are loved. rest in the light of the Son's love. rest, knowing we will be here when you return, refreshed and refocused. I went on a retreat this past weekend, which people have been trying to get me to do for literally years and offering financial help to make it possible. it was a good thing. love to you, Dawn

R&R !! That's the ticket !! When you come back -- and if prayers mean anything, you will {'cause we can't do without our sweet and
caring and talented and smart and. . .ok to say ballsy? stormspinner, and that is the truth}, you will find that writing comes a lot easier. S i n g s for you!! We your friends and admirers will be the beneficiaries. Look how many you have won with your winsome ways. Kinda hate t'share ya, truth be known. Your
encouragement and good humor mean so much. Very presence! ~~ So.
Kick back and live a little. . .correction, l o t. Miss you, but we want you happy and healthy. . .as they say in Texas & 'Kehlana',

The very first thing you need to do Karen and Karla is stop feeling guilty and stressed!Sometimes we just can't do certain jobs and there is no fault in it. You need to calm down, kick back, relax and see what else is available after you catch your breath. Keep the faith, prayer is your best help right now,I pray He gives you strength, endurance, and opens the door to new employment for you both soon! Take care,
love

Hi Karla,

I know this feeling. You end up missing yourself. You go and look inside. With time you'll return with gusto a plenty and poetry to share.

I'll save you a spot.

Best of luck and God bless!

Why is it that we always seem to find the time for others, but never the time for ourselves? Please take whatever amount of time you need to sort things out, get some rest and spend a little time in introspection to understand what it is that you need to do. God will give you a message if you call upon Him to do so, and the best way to receive is through meditation. We will miss you while you are gone but we understand and your personal wellness is of the utmost importance. Be safe and well, Karla, I will keep you and Karen in my prayers.

Take good care of yourself,

Sherry

I hope it wasn't ME who caused you to do this. But you DO need a break (as do I, but I am too stubborn; YOU know that for true! LOL). I am sorry things aren't going well; I wish I could do more to make things easier for you, but I am not doing too good myself. Maybe I need a break from writing too.

Please don't throw your gift away; I need to read your words, and so do many others. You have a lot of friends here, and I will be there for you in your trials. I will be praying hard for you (and for me!). I don't know what is going to happen, but God is there, in the midst of our struggles; He ALWAYS will be, and He will NEVER, EVER leave. We BOTH have to remember that. We also need to rely on Him more!!

Whatever you decide, I will be there for you. I love you, Karla!

(((((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))))))))))))))))) and much love (and many prayers), your twin, Karen Lynn. :( >tears <
