  1. Thank you for your reply Brandon-Christensen, I do appreciate what you are saying and I do understand why... I am also thankful that Heavenly Father has seen fit to also give me an unhungry heart for money. I do strongly feel that things are merely things and people and their feelings are so much more important than mere items or money. I can be found more often giving things away rather than selling them. I am the oldest of 5 and was always their keeper. Sharing is a natural part of my life. Thanks again, I do appreciate your words of wisdom.
  2. Consider yourself hugged... I think it is easier being a female to have started talking to my children and answering their questions whenever they may have followed my into the bathroom, for whatever reason. I am one who has no shame of my body or its natural processes, so it has been easier to answer their questions as they grow. Just take your time and go with the flow. They do want and need to know... Heck, I'm 49, my mother still hasn't told me anything... We did have the little movie and pamphlet in grade school, thank goodness. But I do think most children already have some idea before then, either the right stuff or the wrong stuff according to where they may find it and as long as we as parents take the foremost active role in explaining different things to them as they grow it is easier for us and much better for the child.
  3. Thank you Madriglace, I know I'm not alone here...concerning such and that makes me feel much better for having mentioned it. Thank you Moksha, I do believe that we all have Guardian Angels that attend us all the time...
  4. After having spent better than 25 years in serving the public in various ways I can say... All she should have done, was ask for the manager, if that didn't satisfy her, she should have told them to get the district manager on the phone and then talked to the district manager herself. Why they couldn't give a refund is beyond me, it is a simple register procedure as long as the cashier has that training. Calling 911 was an immature move on her part, she deserves anything they hand her (911) for taking up their time for non-emergency matters and 3 times! I've never worked for McDonalds, and never desired to do so. I think McD's food taste nasty, I'd rather have BK if I have to eat fast burgers. But if we had a Wendy's I'd go for the salad bar with lots of mushrooms! Once with my MIL, she stopped by McD's and ordered my 2 year old a happy meal. Inside the bag was a red/black and white spider. Yes a spider! I found this after my child had already been eating the contents. Talk about getting me upset. (red on a spider is not a good thing at all!) When I called them, they apologized and told me they would give her a free ice cream. Ummm, I don't think so... I told them as far as I was concerned, they owed her a birthday party if anything and to keep their ice cream we didn't want it. (I didn't really want a B-day party for her there either, I just wanted them to know that a spider lost them an unwilling customer anyway, but I was nice about it...) I wasn't calling cause I wanted anything, I was calling because they were endangering a 2 year old. My 2 year old! And that my dears, was the end all of McD's for me and my family! Moral of this story: Parents, Always Check The Contents Of Your Children's Sack Meals, No Matter From Whence They Come!
  5. Thank you bytor2112. Ummm, please know that bashing was someone else's word used here first...
  6. Well, just opps! Hoping mine is a non-politica opinion or considered a personal opinion on bashing anyone... Looks to see who MOE is... Thanks for the enlightenment Hemi.
  7. Hi Hemi, thank you for the welcome. Cool user name. Hmmm... Area of journalism... Well, I guess I should say free form and anything interesting that comes along. Funny thing is, while in school. English never made much sense to me, the rules of it all, I mean. I was in secretarial class at about 25 or so when I realized the reason why. English changes the rules in every new chapter of learning which is confusing. I didn't make good grades in it in HS. But I am a good writer and speaker... I wasn't any good in mathematics. but am exceptional in accounting and bookkeeping, always the tutor for all my teachers in accounting. I Find this quite strange, but it is as it is... So, I guess my answer to your question is, free form journalism, however it does have to capture and hold my attention for it to be worth my time.
  8. Why is anyone bashing Obama? He just got started. Is everyone here rich? I don't know much about the man, but I did read where he was going to make it better for poor folks to get to go see a Dr. if they needed too. Something that this country needs I think. Heaven knows I need it and I'm a military brat hurt @ 13/14 years of age, while on a military base school in a sporting accident on a trampoline, no one ever, not the teacher, the school or my parents took the time to make a report or consider that uhhhh, well, even if she's still walking her back is broken and her neck is all screwed out of place. I'm not a political person at all, but it just seems to me that as a people that we should at least pray for the guy and in a good way without grumbling. He's there for a reason...or he would not be there at all right? Who would have been better? And if they were in office now would everyone be bashing them? I just don't understand all of this, which is one reason I suppose I hold no interest in politics, although I do have opinions... Pray for Obama rather than tearing him down, he needs us just as we need him. No matter what color body we wear or what side of any fence we stand on. Coming together makes more sense that bashing one another. At least that's what I think about the whole deal of bashing. Bashing can only bring on more troubles. How does bashing make a positive difference? Write to the White House or something.... PEACE!
  9. I enjoyed it too, thank you for sharing that with us.
  10. Thank you for this comment rameumptom. This makes a great deal of sense to me. I also had visual flashes of my children while I was carrying them. Although, they were both in embryo Both of them appeared to me, right after laying down, but not yet asleep as if they were about 2/3 years old. A very sweet feeling and precious treasure, indeed. My thread on Spirit People.
  11. * Something that occurred to me this morning... Although, I don't have it here with me to quote, but will quote it when I get the copy that should be on its way to me, in my patriarchal blessing it tells me that I will be called to a position in the church dealing with Genealogy, which is something that has always been on my mind, since I first learned what a family tree is, before I ever joined the church. So, maybe this is why I have this gift of seeing spirits...
  12. * just a thought Another idea to consider is talking with your Bishop and then go talk to a church counselor. It will be helpful for finding ways to release your anger in a positive way. Allowing all that anger to build is not good for you or your family.
  13. No, not my imagination at all, if so, I'd have never mentioned it here at all. Although, I do have a good imagination, I am human. We all have imaginations of course... The fine line was defined before I was born. I know myself, I know what is right and I know what is true. I know the difference between spirit people and darkness. Spirit people just are there. The darkness I did feel coming from a long distance before they got to close. I'm not sure why they showed up, I was being a good girl and studying at those times. However, I recognized them as not belonging where I was and sent them along their way. I do think maybe they were curious of me for some reason. *shrugs* But, I do not want to dwell on these, nor for anyone else to dwell on the thought of them either. I only mentioned them, well because they are... Spirit people feel much different. I've never had a bad feeling from any of them. I think they are curious as well. Interestingly enough, the one's who appear as real as we are, are those who have tried to comfort me while sobbing for one reason or another...
  14. I think they are sharing with others when they say, When I was on my mission... Sharing is a good thing when the topics are enlightening.
  15. How Wonderful! Blessings! BTW, that is a beautiful baptismal dress...
  16. I've only ever felt two that were darker spirits, I felt them coming towards me from a long distance. At first, it made me uneasy as I had never felt anything like that the first time. The second time was easier to recognize. However, with both of these, when I felt they had come too close for my own comfort, I spoke to them saying, I know you are here, you do not belong here, be gone. And they each left after my telling them that. *edit - I got to thinking on this last night after going to bed, and I do believe that I did command them away in the name of Jesus Christ. I am forgetful of things as time passes, however am no liar (just in case, some may consider that...) Believe me, I'd not go hunt up any at all, but I do know spirits when they come. I can also be driving down the street and know a house that has them in it. I'm not sure why this happens, but it does. I was told this was a gift of the spirit by a priesthood holder. I feel that it is as well, one reason why I wondered if there were others here that have this happen as well. They say the veil between the worlds is thin. I can tell you that I do believe this is so much more true than some individuals can comprehend.
  17. I'm really not sure what a "medium" is... But, I do understand what you are talking about. For me, I either feel their presence, see a misty form or actually see them like they are standing right in front of me like a real person, but I know they are spirits.
  18. I've never bragged about it at all, however I cannot deny it either. For me it is a natural thing, not something I had to learn. What I did have to learn is that those who were leading me to believe it was not true were wrong, simply because it seemed foreign to them. I was not raised at all in any type of religious teachings, although I do remember wanting and searching in my own way for it. I can only suppose that I just seemed strange to them and they had no such experiences themselves and tried to brush it off the best way they knew how, which actually wasn't very helpful for me, perhaps it was for them. I was a grown woman before I finally realized that they were wrong. I honestly do not think I am the only one who has this happen naturally. I am just curious if there are others about... Thank you for the reply.
  19. I've always felt like an odd ball in my own family. For the longest time some in my family would have me think I have a good imagination (because I was a child while mentioning this too them) and others having me think I was off in the head for seeing and hearing what I could. As far back as I can remember, I have seen, heard, smelt, and been touched by spirit people. Some of them family members, others I have no idea who they were. I don't go hunting them, they find me. I'm wondering, if I am also an odd ball here as well? Have you ever seen spirit people? Do you know anyone who does see spirit people? Does the idea that there are flesh people who do actually see, hear, talk, smell and been physically touched by spirit people make sense to you or does it bother you? Just curious if I'm an odd ball here... :)
  20. Thank you Having for the link. I've always loved reading and writing. Started keeping a journal at 12/13 years of age. I've written stories and such. The sole reason for my getting a computer was so I could work online from home and be here for my children. First, I was found by a production company and wrote for them, we're still waiting for the sale of the movie and mini-series. Middling Faire - is set in the 1600's and sorta kinda is a fantasy spin off of the Roanoke story, people coming up missing and such. It is sci-fi. Next, I began working with an online publisher. Red Owl Publishing. We are working on a book of Hurricane Katrina, hopefully to be published soon. *crosses fingers & eyes* I am the Mississippi Gulf Coast contact person for stories anyone may wish to have told in that book. And now I am working as an online web content producer for Need An Article. If you need quality content for your website, check this group of writers out. They are great! There I am basically a ghost writer, but a good one. I've written articles ranging from the foreign exchange market to how to fold a fitted bed sheet. Believe me, the latter of these two was the easiest! LOL
