I know that my faith and hope with things has been more than tested over these past months. I feel that at times in all our lives that we are faced with challenges that confront us head on. But I do believe that things will turn around and start to look up for us. We are so lucky to have dear friends and need to cherish them each and everyday. Our friends hold us up when at times we feel like we can't fly, and they help us to learn again. Hugs Piglit

I think I have been losing hope in my faith and religion...I am vegan, and I just don't understand why so many people who have religious faith don't care about the abuse and suffering and killing of our fellow beings, the animals. I am glad not to eat them, and am happy that I do not partake in this cruel and insane system,but I live with my fellow human beings who seem just to be hypocritical about love and compassion. It depresses me intensely.

Funny that you should mention that saying WHAT DOESN'T KILL US MAKES US STRONGER, I use that phrase. I believe I use it because the battles are like a do or die situations and when I make it through by the grace of God, I find it very convenient to say. I am glad to be here to say it because it ain't easy but must keep plowing through the different obstacles. He gives us more than enough to conquer our trials and tribulations. The battle are already won! The proof is in the day; I found this wonderful supportive site! Mayo Clinic! Thank you!!!!! 🙂

You are welcome...Solidarity makes us stronger when we cannot feel it for ourselves..

I adore animals and get so upset every time I hear abuse stories..
