Close your eyes, take a few deep breathes and?

Christmas cookies, warm oven, red stockings, and now.. typing with my eyes closed. It's kind of nice.

How relieved I am that I made a decision this morning that I know will be hurtful to my sisters who were expecting me to travel and visit with them the week after Christmas, but a decision that is supportive of my serenity. And I will have an opportunity to spend a long weekend with them in about a month when I won't be walking myself out on a limb financially. Some folks tell me I am thinking like a poor man, but actually I am thinking like a rich man because I am "holding" on to the money I have for the moment so I can be accountable and responsible to my creditors between now and January one.

They deserve their money. And I won't be eating into some good funds I will be receiving after the first of the year.

Getting a better job than what I am having right now. Yes, no cheating here :).

Dancing with my husband in his Santa suit in Heaven. (He passed away last February).

Being a doctor and help patients our of trouble.

And we can almost touch the stars above us.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
