While we can’t be there with them in the physical sense we are more than with them in spirit and prayers.  May God Bless them all and help them find some meaning to this incident.
No one quite understands until after an incident why or what happened, and this makes life even more unfair and confusing and can alter our faith in God.  If nothing else it makes us question his intentions.  But keep believing, your babies are with God now, and I’m sure that Heaven is welcoming in a BUNCH OF ANGELS .  Those we lose will always be with us, our love transcends the limits of time and circumstance, so never give up in your beliefs.  Please don’t let this keep you from loving again, because that is exactly what your child would NOT want you to do.

These children were at the point in their life that they trusted and loved and looked forward to trusting more and loving more, so don’t take that away from them by not continuing to do this.  They will look down upon you and you will feel them.  You will know when they are watching over you during an important event in your life.  You won’t be able NOT TO FEEL THEM.  Just embrace this and love life even more.  There is way more in life to be happier and expectant about than what these sick animals want us to think or they  try purposely to snuff that our of our lives.  Don’t let them, they will be dealt with.  Call it what you may, ying/yang,karma or justice.  God will make them answer for their deeds, and I’m sure it won’t be pretty.

Here is something that might help us give Sandy Nook Elementary some support now:

The following is taken from Sandy Hook Elementary Massacre facebook page:

“If you would like to mail sympathy cards, postcards or letters of support, even teddy bears for the children and solidarity to the school, the school address :

Sandy Hook Elementary School 

12 Dickenson Drive

Sandy Hook, CT 06482

Please copy/paste/share widely. Sending a card is something small but at least it’s something we can do.”

Product DetailsMy Teasers:

At the time I couldn’t understand the concept behind the public rapes, if that’s what you’d call them, but after returning to America, I learned a lot more about psychological warfare and how condemning the uses are.

Especially when you’re forced to watch, like it’s a movie premier, while the soldiers do horrible things to someone all the while laughing.

This is my book but I’m FINALLY reading it in it’s entirety.  I never did read it from cover to back, I wrote it and let John proof read it because it was too hard for me, but now I’m finally doing it.  If anyone wants to review my book please let me know, I’d love to hear your comments.

My Synopsis on this PTSD

/ Lori / 2 Comments

Trenton you are hearing advice from a very knowledgable lady that is CYNTHIA PUDRITH, we know each other well.  We were both in the same PTSD group and I’ve come to love her like a sister, well in my case MORE THAN MY SISTER..(Long story).

Forget and ignore that other entity that thinks she knows everything.  She is only in here to stir up shit and make people feel bad.  It’s obvious she doesn’t know her ass from a hole in the ground.  And the only reason I approved her post is because I believe in freedom of speech.  We can learn from everyone even the dull and ignorant, even if it’s learning how to NOT BE LIKE THEM.

I get where your coming from.  My PTSD wasn’t caused by what yours was, but I was in an Iranian torture camp, and Cynthia has went through a HELLISH, HORRIFIC experience but I will let her share if she feels comfortable.

There will always be people like this KNOW NOTHING, and I’m not saying that to just condemn her, I TRULY BELIEVE THIS TO BE TRUE.

If you ever want to be excluded from any further posts of hers, let me know, but it sounds like you are more than holding your own, and you have the UTMOST RESPECT from me.

I’m so happy to have met you, and to know there are other human beings out there that genuinely care for others.  God Bless, Lori

Thanks all, I appreciate your support more than I can express in words.

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him.
