		<description>I wanted to share a post that my friend, Andrea Hess, wrote called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.empoweredsoul.com/blog/2009/04/13/raise-your-expectations/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Raise Your Expectations&lt;/a&gt;. In the post about manifesting intention she asks: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;What is the biggest, scariest vision that you could manifest for yourself? &lt;/blockquote&gt;  GREAT QUESTION!

Andrea&#039;s post fit in perfectly with the exercise I suggested to Sara which was &quot;Write down 23 things you wish to bring into your life&quot;.  

The idea here is simple: &lt;strong&gt;THINK BIG!&lt;/strong&gt; Don&#039;t dream a little dream. Dream a &lt;strong&gt;BIG&lt;/strong&gt; dream. Raise your expectation for yourself and your life. 

Andrea states, and I agree...

&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;We are the powerful, Divine Creators of our experience, after all!&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;YES, YES!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>What wonderful advice - Know that all of this circle sends you only blessings and piece of mind.  You are not alone and God is always with you as well as guides and angels.  

Allow yourself to just live in the moment and don&#039;t worry about the future or the past.  You can&#039;t change the past and worrying about the future stops you from  living well in the now.  

Much love to you and thanks to Christa who allows us to share with each other.</description>

		<description>Dear Kevin, Wendy and Annie - I had a major meltdown with my site today and for some time, thought I lost everything. You may have tried to login to see this post, and all the others, and your comments...GONE!

Thankfully your comments were still located in my Outlook in mail. 

Talk about a test of my own personal patience! My Giggle left the building for over two hours. 

So, the past responses to your wonderful comments have been eaten by the ether but I appreciate all your sentiments and help for Sara. 

After sending Sara my reply, I received a nice mail from her. This is what she said:

Christa thanks for your help.  I will definitely give these exercises a try.   Your thoughts are very helpful. I am going to church and pray for happiness and good things in my life

Note: Thank you to Suzanne at VAssistant Services for working with the hosting company to get my site back up and running. Without Suzanne, this site would not be alive. Thanks Suze!</description>

		<description>WOW!  Oh, my!  What wonderful support we all have here among this gang!  I&#039;m so touched to read everyone&#039;s input.

To Sara: I am sorry to read that you are having a very hard time.  This is what has brought us all together, I think.  But it&#039;s a beautiful thing to see all of these strangers being so supportive of other strangers.  

Regarding your comment about being &quot;Alone&quot;, I felt this way for many, many years.  It was so hard to come out of that muck and realize that I truly was NOT alone.  I just thought I was.  I had crazy, wonderful friends like Christa, all around me.  They were just waiting for me to show up!  (I was lost in my own despair).  

I have to tell you that some amazing miracles happened in my life, and I FINALLY showed up for the party, and there were some darned AWESOME friends waiting there for me to arrive.  Glad I did, because I can now be here with all of you, and supporting you through this hard time.

I agree with Kevin, in that we cannot pick our family...but we can pick how we respond to the people in our lives.  

DO NOT GIVE UP ON YOU.  You have too much value to the world....YES, YOU!  

Everyone here is awesome.  You&#039;re doing the right thing to reach out.  Take those baby steps to find your giggle again.  I PROMISE YOU it is there - waiting for you to show up!

		<description>I lost my son 20 year old son, 4 years, 10 months and 11 days ago to suicide.   I want you to know that NOTHING is so bad that you, I, we can&#039;t hold on ONE more day and wait for the sun to come up - tell someone how we are feeling, take a walk, a bubble bath, read a children&#039;s book (the velveteen rabbit is my favorite and other books take too much concentration for me to focus on) make a list of the 5 funniest things that have happened to you (and you know everyone has something funny that has happened to them);  just do it -wake up one more day -give someone a chance to make your life better.   

A song that helps me is Rob Thomas - Little wonders:

Let it go, let it roll right off your shoulder.
Don&#039;t you know the hardest part is over.
Let it slide, let your troubles fall behind you, Let it shine, until you feel it all around you, and I don&#039;t mind if it&#039;s me you need to turn to We&#039;ll get by, it&#039;s the heart that really matters in the end.
Stay safe.   Wendy</description>
