Thanks Giving in the Truest Sense

I only now know the true sense of Thanks Giving!

I write this tonight with sweetness in my heart. I wish for all people in this universe saftey and comfort. I wish for those that are homeless a safe haven and a new opportunity.

I send my heartfelt appreciation to our local sponsors that help the homeless and those in need. I know the despair of a child in need, lost and in despair. I find myself grateful for those that contribute their time, effort and money to those who find themselves in despair.

I lost a son to mental illness. Bi-polar disorder can devastate a family. My son died on March 18, 2008. He was a beautiful soul.

I wish for all people and families that they never know this loss, that they know the beauty of life and joy of living. That they are blessed with comfort and abundance. I loved my son beyond all comprehension and I could not save him. I accept God's will and what is meant to be.

I send you best wishes for joy and celebration in this life. Let no barriers exist with those that you love and forgive and know compassion in your heart. Have a wonderful Thanks Giving and love those that are dear.

Remain committed to those that you love and let no obstacle stop your love. Learn and dedicate yourself to helping those you love. Allowance is half way home.

In celebration of my beloved son, Christopher Rule Schurr, he was the most gracious, couragous person I have ever known. He makes me proud to be who I am. He is my inspiration and my HERO. It is a time of sorrow for me on a personal level. At the same time it is a time of celebration for having known such a true level of love for my son and his love of me. We were truly connected and our love was complete.

Happy Thanks Giving To All in the truest sense!
