• Monday...Monday...Happy new week! Much to do, so little time! Black Hole has been reduced to just a messy room...had to go buy boxes to organize the stuff that is left over. We threw away 8 bags of trash and are donating I can't tell you how much stuff to a friend of mine who is having a yard sale this weekend to help a family in deep need.

  
  

   A friend of theirs killed himself on July 3rd, leaving behind his wife and three small children. They were in dire straits money wise and he was supposed to be on medication for what I assume was depression. I was heartbroken for him, because he saw no way out of whatever was wrong, and most especially for the wife and children, who are so much worse off now, in so many ways.

  
  

  I feel such sorrow for people who feel that suicide is the only way to end pain. I can't imagine a pain so great that ending my life is the only way to stop it, and I pray I never know. My heart goes out to those in pain and I wish there was something I could do.

  
  

  But, since I can't heal the world, I can do my small part and donate my stuff to my friend to raise money for the family.

  
  

  Here is to a good Monday (Note to myself...remember that my attitiude is everything!) and a great week.

  
  

  Bright Blessings,
