Having had one Jewish, one Protestant, one Socialist and one
Communist
grandparent, I wasn't brought up in any kind of religious
tradition.
I believe in looking for the Good in people, in life, and in
sharing the
good energy, white light, healing spirit, whatever you want
to call it,
with those around me.
I cannot save the world from grief, pain, loss, illness or
death. I can
help myself and my loved ones to deal with it when it comes.
Maybe I'm fooling myself, but it sure feels better when I
think I can
make a difference to others. So whether I call it prayer, or
sending
good energy, white light or whatever, doesn't really
matter. And even
if it only makes me feel better about myself, that's a good
thing
too, isn't it?
I definitely felt better when I asked for support and you
gave it to me.
Don't know whether it influenced the outcome, but it really
helped.
Love Jacqueline
