They all dreamed for this moment
living out their hopes
living out their dreams
reaching for the stars
ignoring limits
to have one moment
one moment in time
one moment in space
Now, they dwell among the stars
When we turn our gaze skyward
up to the heavens
searching for the stars
they'll look down on us
they are in our thoughts
they are in our prayers
they are in our hearts
and we shall miss them
They will not be forgotten
-----------------------------------------------------------
Dedicated with love and respect
to the family members, friends
and loved ones of the Columbia
Seven...
May their hopes become ours...
May their dreams become ours...
And may we one day know peace.
(((HUGS))), *tears* and love,
karla. :(

She never felt safe at home as a young girl, and didn't understand why when she finally escaped she wasn't safe in the big wide world either ...effectively jumping out of the frying pan into the fire!
Sherlyn Powell opens up about her love and devotion to her family and the overwhelming repercussion when communication breaks down. Heartbroken and distraught she learns to release her prayer and realize with faith God would reunite her family.
(Richard M. Feldman) Ever since I was a young boy, the only thing I wanted to be was a cowboy. I wanted to own and work on a real ranch, with cattle and horses. Especially horses.
While I never became a cowboy, considering everything I have done
