Dear Peggy,
You haven't been on here for a little while and I hope that is because you have wonderful supportive friends that you have been talking with. We need each other in hard times - (Proverbs 17:17) "A true companion is loving all the time, and is a brother that is born for when there is distress."
"Talking can be a helpful release. Following the death of all ten of his children, as well as some other personal tragedies, the ancient patriarch Job said: “My soul certainly feels a loathing toward my life. I will give vent to [Hebrew, “loose”] my concern about myself. I will speak in the bitterness of my soul!” (Job 1:2, 18, 19; 10:1) Job could no longer restrain his concern. He needed to let it loose; he had to “speak.” Similarly, the English dramatist Shakespeare wrote in Macbeth: “Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o’er-fraught heart and bids it break.”" (quote from WHEN SOMEONE YOU LOVE DIES - brochure)
Just know I care and am ready to talk anytime.
