Recently a couple of friends of mine have been going through a hard time.  I hate seeing them go through these trials because they are truly good people who have given my life a spot of sunshine when I needed it.  I want them to know that my thoughts and prayers are with them and they can call / IM me anytime.

I want HER to know she possesses a strength that far surpasses what she's feeling at this moment.  She has battled inner demons -- demons that have beaten others to a pulp. She's come back stronger. She's nursed a sick child -- willed him to live through those first few critical months of life and has kept him healthy.  She is a PHOENIX and she will rise from the ashes stronger than ever. I know this like a I know my own name.  I want her to know I'm proud to be her friend.

I want HIM to know that I am praying for him and his family. I can't imagine what he's going through right now. If there is anything I can do, I don't want him hesitate to ask. He's never ceased to brighten my day and has always given me something to smile about.

Take care my friends. God Bless.
