Everytime I want to "laydown with dogs" and start blogging some nonsense, I remember that " Ms Rose" may stop by and I am encouraged to remember my venacular and education. You are such a beacon of strength to us that look up to you and read your blog. Please know that we support you and pray for your strength to come through this senseless misery and return to us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14764916.post-60805263406743044182008-01-29T18:56:00.000-06:002008-01-29T18:56:00.000-06:00So unfortunate.

I sometimes hear him and his friends talk about fights that happen and I always feel the fear of him somehow getting caught up in the madness. Even "fair fights" such as the one your nephew appears to have been involved in can potentially lead to such devastation that I almost want to lock my son in the house and never let him out again.<BR/><BR/>I am so sorry for your family's loss.Sharon shareshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00729464563424302375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14764916.post-89701929984635660082008-01-23T16:44:00.000-06:002008-01-23T16:44:00.000-06:00I was just discussing our youth with a friend of m...I was just discussing our youth with a friend of mine yesterday. She says that it's good for kids to have a good healthy fear of something because so many of them are so apathetic and have no regard for their own lives or the lives of others.<BR/><BR/>It hurts me to know that so many of them are hurting and feel that they have no one to turn to. Some of them are carrying unbelievable burdens that should not be theirs to bear.Drea Inspiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04619133486975563905noreply@blogger.com
