    it can be as hard to have a warrior in the family as it is to be one.....you want to keep them safe and still respect their decision......all you can really do is love them, support them as much as you can...and pray for their safe return......we have alot of young souls in harms way AGAIN.....and this is all we can really do for them....i'll help with the prayers as much as i can....just remember...right or wrong...they still need your love and respect...it's a tough decision that is sometimes made without forethought.............

    Positive vibes and prayers for my brother - Military
    Hi all~please say prayers for my brother, Elliot - who will be going into the National Guard for his boot camp training next week. He had wanted to join the Marines about 10 years ago, and my dear mama and I talked him out of it...well, he's not a kid anymore, and he has the right to do as he chooses - so as much as I respect his decisions - and as grateful as I am for his motives for joining - I can't say that I am happy to see him go, and much less - to see him deploy for a possible overseas tour next year, which seems to be what he wants... Although I can't understand how he would want to do this - at least, not completely, I love and respect him dearly and I just want him to be safe and come home safely... Prayers and blessings please, as he is a very strong but sensitive soul and it's just so scary what's happening around the world... Thank you very much!

    So great to see all the passion and compassion here
    and thanks for all of your kind thoughts and expressions with my Uncle Bus's passing. Unfortunately his wife, my wonderful Aunt who stood with him these last 6 + decades, recently had surgery (she had delayed this because of Bus' dying) and then she had a stroke that night..... anyway she is still struggling so with her grief, and now with her loss of words or avenue to express herself. It is so hard for her and I hope that she can recover to live her days well, or if it be her time, that she could "go gently into that good night". If I might tap into this wonderful well of vibes again, please send her your beams of wellness or of finality. Whichever it will be....take care............ The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

don't worry TL, i'm sure everything is okay. i know it's heart-wrenching but everything will work out. you know what youngsters are like; can't get to a phone, get an offer to chill at a friend's place, living in dream land!! and then they'll admonish you for caring so much!!but for heaven's sake, when you get a chance, please keep us informed. you're all in my thoughts too. take care guys.

please ask your friends sure-she went missing in Neunkirchen, which is in Nordrhein-Westfalen. Closest bigger towns are Siegen and Giessen. 10 hours missing now and no word it is getting dark and cold and Sam has nothing with him. ********************************** I am not young enough to know everything.

They had quite a journey, due to my daughter's cleverness. There was a network of kids assisting their flight (from her Warrior Cats forum) and they were in Cologne, Münster, Mönchengladbach, AND ended up being nabbed by the polizei at the train station on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg. Right now they are in the home of a friend of mine, arranged by another friend, Anja. Ole (where they are now) was on his way to grab them himself for us, but decided it was better to alert the police, in case the kids screamed (they don't know Ole, and didn't want him nailed by the cops as a pervert, when he was only being kind) The cops made the actual grab, and took them to the station the Reeperbahn, with the scum of Hamburg-where Ole picked them up. They did this journey on 60 euros total and I can barely wait to see her tomorrow and hear the rest of the story. I am so relieved that she is safe, that I am not angry-YET, and yes in a weird way I am proud of her adventurous spirit-we know know that it was Sam's idea and urging that the run, but once they did, she was in charge.********************************** I am not young enough to know everything.

oh what a relief TL. I am so happy for you. Been fretting all day. Don't be too hard on her..we have something in common. .I ran away to Hamburg when I was 17 and it took them 4 months to find me :-) Lived in Altona just down from the Reeperbahn. 17 is a bit different from 13 though..kids grow up so fast. still beaming CB

I'll take it upon myself to report that Johnman is still in need and facing homelessness. He has given me an address to send mail to and I am dropping a check in the mail today. Since he has chosen not to post that address, I will not either. However you can PM him or myself for it and you will have the satisfaction of seeing 100% of the donation go to him. And I am also relieved that TL's daughter was found unhurt. Thank God! Perhaps she will learn something about a mother's love from this. In the US it seems like so few of these cases end up with happy endings and that is why in the last ten years first responders have moved up their mobilization to within a couple of hours and we have Amber Alerts. In these two cases please take a moment to reflect what you would have been going through if it was you... and as circumstances change all the time it could very well come to be though I hope it never does for anybody anywhere.

that I took that particular karma hit for all of you, and that such a thing NEVER happens to you. "How to make your mother into a senior citizen in 2 and a half days" by Imi Peanut. She is home now, and as the panic adrenaline leaves my body, I am alternating between hysterical tears then giggles, and body feels like I am about 90 years old. This too will pass, after some real sleep and some real food. Thanks for caring-everyone who did helped the hanging on! Now back to directing ALL positive vibes and also financial aid to Johnman. I will ask him where to send a check. ********************************** I am not young enough to know everything. Oscar Wilde

September seems to be being particularly fruity this year!! let's hope, after 8 days in, it begins to calm down a wee bit, ha ha!

Take a moment to remember those who perished 10 years ago. Thank goodness Al Qaeda has lost it's grip on effective destruction. On a much more mundane note, I think the Kansas City Chiefs suck big-time: can we send Pioli back to Boston and Haley back to Phoenix ??!! '9'rs looked good in a late afternoon game.

That spammers will even post in a thread where we're vilifying them. I think that this one is especially egregious, given the theme of the thread and the spammer's solicitation for our prayers! That is just about as low as you can get. Isn't it? Time for Marye to break out the flamethrower, once again...

Johnman's son, Johnny, revealed on Facebook on December 3, 2021 that our friend and mentor Johnman is not long for this world. Join me in sending grateful thoughts and positive vibes to the man that many of us have never met. God bless you Johnman and best wishes to your son, family and friends.
Update: John did pass away on 12/5/2021. A memorial is planned in January 2022

My brother Phil is a deadhead from way back -- made it to 95% of all dead shows from '87 to '90 and most of the west coast shows until Jerry passed in '95 (over 200 shows). Some of you might even know him. He's currently fighting for his life with stage 4 cancer and he could use your good vibes.

For more information, search for Phil Burkett on the gofundme site, and thank you.
