...This gave me chills for a few different reasons! <br /> <br /> -one: A little over a year ago I locked myself in a stall at church after a sermon that gripped my soul. After everyone left I went to Target next to the church went in bought a bunch of pills paid with a hundred dollar bill and told the cashier to keep the change. I went in my car parked in the back, turned the music up and cried as I started to die. <br /><br />Someone saved my life... I'm not sure why the 'universe' allowed me to live. <br /><br />Two: We cry and because we cry we we learn to have the compassion and we love. this was a poem that I can't believe I read today... it reminded me why I cry and why I must live.<br /><br />this was beautiful and they way you ended it was perfect!!!<br /><br />~L~Lhttp://www.untitledmoments.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12624992.post-66507505855656286532012-02-22T07:36:23.092-08:002012-02-22T07:36:23.092-08:00Perfect!
