Life is Continuing

I haven't written much lately, because for the most part I am feeling fairly good, all things considered.  Jazsper seems to be doing good.  He needed to speak with his dad, and they now talk every couple weeks or so.  I feel Jazsper needs it since he started asking a few questions about his dad.  We went to the beach, I bought an extravagant purse I have wanted for years, and I started feeling good. Funny, when I mentioned it to a couple friends they looked at me and said "its OK to feel good"..It really helped and I was surprised that maybe perhaps I did feel like I shouldn't be feeling OK ever.... I guess I needed permission, sort of..... It made a big difference in me. They had no idea what it meant to me.  Last week however, I was having a rough morning, and stopped by a coworker area, and was talking with a couple people I don't see very often, but that I am close to.  When they asked how I was, it hit me again and I started crying. I got hugs of course. But what surprised me most was when one behind me put her hands on my shoulders and started praying over me. It was an incredible prayer, and afterward I left the area feeling back up again. it was tranforming, in just the split second..... I love the South, and the Bible Belt. Nowhere else I know would someone just stop working and pray with you. or at any given time someone is always following the promptings of the Spirit and praying with you. It is the most wonderful thing I could think of. Without God's help, I would never make it through this journey. Sometimes I just need to be reminded of that as well.... The Spirit moves in and thru all of us, if we just slow down and do what we are prompted.
