Shali, I cannot express how much your story distresses me. Although I've been active on these boards for only a few short months, I quickly recognized yours to be a voice of intelligence, gentleness, kindness, reason and balance. Compassion like yours is like the finest steel. It is borne only of blistering fires, it cannot merely dug up from a sheltered place that has never known pain.
Be well, my friend. I sincerely hope that the brokenness between you and your son is healed soon.
Ooooohhhh, I needed that. “Balm of Gilead,” indeed. Touched to the point of tears. Your words heal far more than you know, my friend. I am cognizant of the strength of your convictions, your clarity of thought, measured intelligent response even under duress. I am elevated by our friendship, u bring out the best in others.
