passionheart Posted January 15, 2007 Author Posted January 15, 2007 [size=5]2 days to go[/size] I have decided that someone should start a business that helps those entering religious life to get rid of their stuff : I am justemptying drawers today and filling garbage bags. Last night was beautiful night full of blessings. People are so generous!! It was a night of blessings because after many years my mother and I spoke. She couldn't make it to the dinner and I called her at home. We said our goodbyes and there was peace between us. My older brother hasn't said much in regards to my leaving so there has been some tension between us. Last night after the party, the embraced me so hard and he wouldn' t let me go. He said I will miss you. Yes, it was a night of blessings and miracles!!
HisChild Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Awww that's so wonderful! I truly pray that your going into religious life will bring you and your family closer, as I'm told happens. God is sooo good, isn't He?
Starets Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Godspeed on your entrance, Passionheart oh, and contact Shepherds of Good Hope about your "stuff"
