Checking in again....

Aloha,

I have done a lot of reading lately, history books about my heritage since I was adopted.

For those of you that are sad or grieving, when I found this thread, I felt like the only one and felt I was all alone in my mourning.

Reading this thread help me understand that I was not alone, when I felt lonely.

You can just express your feelings without worrying about judgement, or making other people feel sad.

Sometimes you cannot express yourself with loved ones, for whatever reasons.

You can express your feelings here.

It has helped me to learn that what has happen to me will forever be a part of me.

It has helped me to understand that everyone has their own story.

It has helped me to live my life with expectations that things can and will change.

And that's okay...

Take care of yourself so you can take care of others,

Aloha my dear sweet friend sunshine&rainbows,

Every word you typed in your above post was so heart felt.

Learning about ones heritage helps bring comfort and understanding, rather than not knowing, but it is a gentle path one must walk with some caution.

I hope what you learned about your adoption made you feel better dear sunshine&rainbows.

On the other hand sometime we seek and never find, and when that occurs we must place our faith in God, since he is the true Creator of everything, and pray he heals us from within.

Acceptance is very difficult at times but not impossible.

Many times when one grieves family may not want to talk about the loss, and if you can't discuss it to get more support and prospective you may need counseling by a group therapy unit, or in private.

Sharing your feelings helps heal inside where the shattered heart, and grief stricken soul dwell.

At least on this Delayed Grief thread much information is offered even though it was not transferred over from the old QVC Community Forum, to this new one in its entirety.

All the visible posts help others, because in effect a sharing situation occurs.

Then the post and reply cyber interaction begins, and the grief journey does not feel so frightening, sad, and lonesome anymore. As human beings we all need to come together, and share our grief.

I pray everyone gets the support they need even in cyberspace if that is all they can accomplish. Healing changes, ebbs and flows with its ups and downs, and will always be with us, but as we emerge after that long grief journey, we emerge with better understanding, which usually results in coping more easily, and the future does not look empty, hopeless, and bleak anymore.

Many thanks for sharing your feelings dear friend, and  may Angels watch over you and your loved ones, now and always!

I hope this finds everyone healthy, happy and prosperous.

My sweet friend Adore, your words are also very heartfelt and may Angels and our Lord also watch over you and Phillip and your friends!

On the 1963 movie " America America" I really enjoyed it, and the reviews are very good, It has family values, hardship, love, determination, hope, different cultures, happiness, sadness, giving, sharing, I could go on... I like the dancing and music and the sets and traditional costumes. Okay enough already.

Well my friend its 8:20 pm here so I will see you later.

Blessings,

I hope you have a lovely enjoyable day.

Please take it slowly, and take good care dear friend!

Just checking in again and wanted to let you all know we are leaving for a lengthy vacation Monday 7/27.

I will hold you all in my continued prayers, and also pray God showers all of those in need with his love, comfort, wisdom, knowledge, understanding and acceptance for what we cannot change when we unfortunately lose our loved ones.

May his guiding bright light fill your inner souls with peace. 

I wish you all a very safe Summer, and hopefully enjoyment of the fine weather and bright longer days, filled with God's love and protection .

I also enclose cyber comfort hugs, and my many blessings, and when we return home I will post again.

Adore and others, Mahalo to you. My apologies for being so selfish. I know there are so many out there in need of prayer. I hope and pray that you can learn to live with your grief, I am learning that myself right now. I am forever changed, it is terrible tragedy when we lose a loved one, especially if you live so faraway from them, I will keep you all in my prayers as I take one foot forward and pray others can also take that first step to healing.We have our memories good and bad. Gods Blessing to you.

I hope this finds you doing well, healthy and happy,

I found my very first posts and re posted them to keep this thread alive, that you have helped so many.

I just wanted to get back to my roots of how I came to find this board and how much it has helped me, I am still grieving, somedays are worst than others.

Today is a bad day for me. I am praying for my brother in-law, he is like my own brother, I love him so much.

My brother in-law found out he has cancer in his lungs and is being operated on today.

Oh dear God please help me, help my brother in-law, I am putting him in your loving hands of Great Healing. God Bless Timmy take care of him, Dear God heal Timmy, In Jesus name, Amen.
