When I feel down and yes, I do have down times here and there, not many, but I love life and I love all of you.

    Maybe this sounds corny, but I just want you all to know, that no matter how deep in the valley you are and how high on the pedestal you are, I am here if ever you need someone to listen to you. Just wanted you all to know that! And not just me, but there are so many other quilters out there that I'm sure has the same kind of heart!

    Don"t know why I am typing this, maybe the Lord knows someone needs to be told this right now, so I'm here, we are here! Hugs!

    Love you all even if we have never met. I hope you all to have peace and happiness in your life. :)
    Awe, aren't you just the sweetest! I feel the same way about this board, it is pretty much my life saver right now as I'm pretty low in the valley as you say. My DH is suffering terribly with stage IV lung cancer with mets to pretty much everywhere! I come on here often to try to get uplifted by posts like this one! Thank-you! ((HUGS))

    I too have had some tough times lately. Have had some serious health problems but am on the mend I hope. Reading this board each morning has helped me much. Thanks to everyone for all the positive comments that are made. You never know when or how those comments will affect someone.

    Yes, I feel the same. This board is the best, and the only forum I check in with every day...My heart gets so encouraged to keep going when I read the stories and comments, and the pics encourage me to keep quilting...which in turn keeps me sane!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

    So I guess you could say that this board is my therapy....thanks y'all :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Hi,I feel the same.This is a wonderful place with so many
    special people.
    I help out at my DD's healthy shake shop, & I have met several quilters here. I tell them all to check it out. They
    will never regret it.

    You so beautifully put into words what I feel, along with so many others. It has been a rough time lately and the friendship here is truly a comfort.

    Blessings to you all.
