It was the month of August the sniper was on the lose he had already shot
seven people, chat rooms were full of people
talking and concerned about where he would be next, I
go into chat room news august the fifthteenth at nine forty five
by the name hope angel eyes, when all of a sudden I see this person going
by the name of Sunday rain holler at me and says " hey
angel are you ready to fly because I know you have the wings" I took it
as a smart remark, a few min.s later this guy instant messages me and wants
to talk, now I am going threw a bad marriage at the time and I know
if my husband sees me talking to a guy I know he will be mad so I block
him off, and ignore him, days go by when every time I get on I have this
guy hollering at me but the words he would say was getting to were I could
know longer ignore him so I start chatting back with him, at this time
in my life I needed someone just to talk to or more like just be
a friend that would stand by me threw my problems I was having in this
marriage I was in.
So days go on and every time
I would get on the Internet me and this guy would talk I started opening
up to him of what I was going threw at home and to me doing that with any
one was strange because I wanted to keep it all bundled up inside me, but
this man gave me answers to all my problems and it felt good to have someone
there that could give me answers to were I needed them, seems like I was
growing more closer to him by just the words that he was sending me, I
seen that this man had a good heart and so caring he was, at this point
neither of us had seen pictures of each other he lived in Florida and I
lived in Harlan County, so I decided I would send him a picture of me now
at this time I had been sneaking and talking to this man at least
two weeks but I felt so opened to him and I was, here I am getting
a picture of me ready to send him I push the button send, I am setting
in the chair thinking what am I doing sending a picture of
my self to a man that I don't really even know, he receives the picture
in his mail box opens it up and the replies back at me I have butterflies
in my stomach of what he thought about me, and his reply back at me was,
" you look like a angel" just all the words this man said to me was like
it was meant to be for us to meet the way we did, Everyday was getting
more and more interesting the words we spoke to each other were reaching
our hearts and we were helping each other, but for me he was really showing
me that there was more to life than staying home in a closed up room
and having a husband that just didn't care, in a months time we were getting
really close sharing our thoughts with each other laughing and showing
love, we both seen what was happening we were falling in love with
each other but I didn't want to believe it I was scared of the word love
from the marriage I was in, and he taught me not to be scared that all
men weren't that way he really started showing me love and I felt it even
though we were so many miles apart it felt like he was there in the
same room with me telling me about his life, about his daughter and his
grand children, and before long here I am calling him, I would catch my
husband
gone and he would buy me calling cards to call him, and
by the first month was over with I had talked to his mother, brother,
daughter, and his granddaughter., I was getting so close
to him a day went by that I didn't call him and I was feeling so down,
Starting the second month of
us talking we are getting more and more involved in each other were telling
each other everything like we had new each other a life time, he was helping
me with the way I felt about my self, I was taking what my husband was
doing to me and my son and keeping all that in me and by the time September
is here I notice that this man was helping me more than just one
way, he had guided me out of a way that I had built up in my self by the
way of feeling inter heart a special way chosen by him by saying
you don't have to use just your heart use what's in side your heart that's
were your true feelings come from, and he was bringing this trueness out
of me that I didn't even know I had, he came to teach me the new way of
living without all the pain that I had put on my self because of someone
else I rather not even talk about, he always told me there was always a
way out, but I needed to find it with in my self and maybe he was
that angel on my shoulder teaching me the way, showing me the way,
the right way, once he taught me I could take away the hurt any time I
wanted to, all I had to do was go back threw the words that he had spoken
to me and seemed like all the hurt would go away, the second month was
almost over with and he was always in the back ground when ever I needed
him,, when one night I tried to get him into my home town chat which he
new nothing
of, trying to direct him into the room turned out to
be fun he couldn't find it, but after all it turned out to be fun, so we
both
decided to talk by instant massager because it was much
easer, in the last of the second month I decided to tell my niece about
him so I did and with her she thought it was great, she
even got to the point were when I would call him she would have to talk
as well, she seen nothing wrong with me talking to him, she seen that he
was opening me up to where I was feeling better about my self and
my life, each night we would talk on the internet till late in the morning
and times my husband would walk in the room I would push x to let him know
that my husband was in the room not to type back to me and he wouldn't,
nights was so much better laughing and having that internet friend that
I needed so bad, just to know that I had someone there to talk to and open
my feelings and my heart up to made my days go so great with him it felt
like I could face any problem that life threw at me, I felt safe and secured
with him didn't have a worry in the world as long as I new that he would
be there when I got on the computer was all I ever worried about and he
was each time I gave a holler he was there to answer me, and he is the
only person I have ever seen that could give me a answer to each of my
questions and be right about the answers he gave me, my love for this man
was growing each minute that I had with him either on the phone or
on the internet, that love was there at all hours threw out the day, and
the next day the same love was there but a little bit stronger than the
day before it was starting to scare me I really never had this feeling
that I had with this man with any one not even my husband, the bond
was so strong between us, when the end of the second month of talking to
him came I felt like a angel and I new at this point in my life that this
man was also my angel. Some one I could trust and believe in not only as
a friend but as a soul mate as well, Yes all is true as she is telling
I am her trust, her best friend, of all her soul mate for life. Three months
ago this change in my life
came by way of faith, belief, and a true feeling that
I could make the most wonderful thing happen to this woman by teaching
her a different way of looking at herself instead of being withdrawn from
a world she had and was so close to all but giving up on I was not going
to let this happen, I was going to be that chosen angel in her life, I
was by her side in feelings of need and I was her guide to her heart by
spirit and by faith to open up and not hide what can hurt you, fear is
no where but within your self stand in front of
it and you have it made, I opened up a part of her being she had
kept shut inside and didn't know how to lift away that hurt not caused
by her, but by the lack of care needed and not given when so,
This meeting between our hearts
and our souls will last forever I am that chosen angel for her in spirit.
She attends church and feels spirit of life as she has mine, we did meet
in a god sense way and for a purpose that only our hearts and souls know,
or I wouldn't have come to know her as I do. He had told me that there
is so much more to life then just getting up and throwing your whole
life away, just ask your inter heart and it will give you your answer to
anything you ask and I was the one that had taught her that way of thought
that she had buried in her self and wouldn't let go to come out and
say this is the real me I have lifted her self esteem up and told her that
this is the most important quality of your life that keeps you from
sickness makes you healthy and the most of all happy.
This is how
I was bought up to believe that once this is stripped away from your heart
that true sense of your self and spirit just disappears. This must have
been my job to do , to keep this from happening from this special person
or at least try to stop this because know one should have there self worth
put down because someone told you to be that way, that choice is your own
and know one else's and that your guide is your faith in God and
the angels that do his work for him, I found this out a long time back
with my younger brother we had found out that our father was to sick to
bare the weather change and the doctors said it would be best if he moved
to the south were the climate was better suitable for his health.
Well unfortunately my father died leaving mom and brother on there own,
in my heart I knew I had to be there with them and that's when I became
my brothers role model, an angel on his shoulder and today he has a great
career and is doing fine I had kept him from going down the wrong road
of trouble drugs and everything else in his way growing up, today I have
a daughter I raised my self she is a fine mother of three and a angels
work always goes on as if its coming from your heart to do so faith will
take over as your guide for I feel a special ones cry for answers she cant
find she knows my gift to make better as her angel to help her in need
to always be there I guess my path threw life will be an angel of faith
,trust and well to help those you truly love to feel the real life in them
selves from my gift of word to know you put them special words into someone's
heart that you come to love for that life's a highway and I am her guide,
of pure untouched feelings for one another in a way that cant be explained
by either of us and to this day we are both in awe, and wonder why this
has come about for our two lives meeting each other, There are angels among
us what else could it be, we have taught
each other that there is so much in life out there and
that there is a real world that I taught her how to find threw
inter heart, I taught her how to find the hole that was in her heart how
to fill it up, with faith and belief in her self and that she could
do any thing that she wanted to do by letting her fear go away, and stand
up for her self as the true woman I taught her to be,
As the third
month came on, the killers had been caught and the chat room had disappeared
as far as we knew, our instant
messages came more frequently soon as the messages weren't
enough then came more phone calls, as she started opening
her heart up to me more and more each day I started finding
the real truth about who she was and what the real troubles were in her
life, that's when I knew I wasn't going to stop until I could really take
her away from all this, I am that angel on her shoulder and not just
for her but for her son that she loved so much, they were and are
going to be part of my life for ever, my heart told me that with each passing
day and each day got brighter as she started telling me more about
her life and the marriage she was in, a marriage that know one should
be in it made me hurt and more determined to pull her and her son away
from that all together, our time on the net started getting better and
fun especially when we drifted into early morning hours, times on
the net were good times and bad times, I always seemed to make the bad
times she was having go away, every night was different meaning I always
had something else different to say to her it was never the same this is
how she was learning in her heart, lord above did she ever love it, and
so did I for both of us knew that each of our hearts were intertwining
to become one, this was truly one of a kind relationship that was building
between us and we both knew that this doesn't just happen to any body we
knew there was a helping hand it
could only have been the man up above our angel
that has guided us together with his on special path with love, she never
wanted to believe that something like this could really happen, as of me
I wasn't going to back away I knew she was in trouble but at
the time I couldn't really get the whole truth from her for she was that
scared not knowing what would happen if the other part found out meaning
husband I didn't want to play with fire but I chose to do so because I
knew this was the right thing to do and she knew that to or she would had
let me go in the beginning so this told me she wanted this to, but in her
she didn't want to believe the inter heart that she had wouldn't let her
go this far so I wrote her a poem and this is the poem, " My angels walk
as do my angels talk my angels fly as do my angels cry my angels sing as
do that bell I ring, angels don't fall they only rise to keep watch over
us with there open eyes yes my angel walks my angel talks my angel flies
my angel cries can never close an
angels eyes" I started writing these little things to
her it became a habit I was writing quotes, stories, poems the more I wrote
the
more she took in because she knew in all I was writing
was only the truth she was really starting to believe my word, she was
really starting to feel what I taught her as inter heart,
The forth month starts of us
talking about everything that he could give me as well as my son, of making
our lives new and for ever change, at this time being so confused in what
my life has turned out to be at this time would I do right or wouldn't
I , I
didn't really know at this time but he was sure trying
to make me believe that it was the right thing to do, but at this time
in my
life between him and my husband it was almost like tossing
a coin in the air and seeing what way it turn heads or tails, I was closed
up at this part in my life and didn't want to believe in love at
all didn't want to believe that someone could really make thischange in
me and my son as he wanted to do, do I jump for a better life as he was
telling me it would be or do I stay with the man I married and be put threw
so much hell that I had went threw for nine years what was the decision
that I must take I didn't know, besides telling him I had to take this
one day at a time he told me that my heart would let me know when that
time was right that it was up to me to do that just listen and open up
to what my heart told me and that would be my answer, I started going to
church and looking for my answer but seemed like the answer wasn't coming
to me in the way I wanted it to, I thought it would have came easy but
I learned that life doesn't work that way pray and seek and you will find
but at his time he will tell us but we have to be open about all to him
as well, this is when we both told each other that we will wait for that
answer, we keep up with the phone calls but I was always hiding them because
I feared of what would happen to me if I were caught, I knew what would
happen but he didn't, this kind of hurt and pain happened to me everyday
I just couldn't tell him that, this is what held me back from everything
and made me not believe in my self anymore, he seemed to know this but
waited for me to tell him taking the kids to the movies out in the cold
making phone calls at the pay phone just to get to hear his voice made
all worth while, as far as I was concerned it made that much difference
in my life to know that he was there to hear me , he gave me more
courage everyday he was teaching me to stand up for my self and be the
woman I was never had any body to show me or teach me the way he did and
the way he does, Thanksgiving comes around and all though we are so many
miles apart we still have it together as if he was right
around the corner by me calling him every time that my
husband would leave the house, it was coming that strong between us, if
the world only knew how hard this was to me to keep this a secret
between me and him and not for any one else to find out, has to have been
one of the hardest things anyone could do in there life but I chose to
do it this way and I did it, each day that passed by I knew that my love
for this man was getting more and more, when time came for me to go to
bed and leave him we always used this special code which was 1 2 3 that
way we could leave together but when we got to 3 it was hard for either
of us to leave but once we did, we knew that we would be with each other
threw out the night we would meet each other in our dreams, Morning came
and he was there on my mind, know matter where I was threw out the day
he was there with me teaching me guiding me threw out the day,
Fifth month comes about which is the
month of December, my birthday was around the corner which was the tenth
and his was the twelfth another thing about us two that caught our
eye our birthdays, I will never forget it when he told me his was the twelfth,
thought at first it was someone playing a joke on me that knew me, well
any ways my birthday comes about and I had already sent him a present which
was a necklace and a card with a little saying about love, hope, and faith,
to me birthdays was just another day before I met him I looked at them
as nothing and this was the first birthday that I felt really good about,
he had changed my whole day by just saying the little words that he had
always said to me from the beginning, someway some how he always could
make my days brighter if I was sad, all I had to do was hear and talk to
him and by the time we were finished I had forgot about why I was sad or
just hurt, so our birthdays pass by, and Christmas is almost here hoping
so bad at that time I was there with him spending this special day with
him my heart wanted it so bad as did I, it was like the air I breathed
was for him, Christmas morning comes and yes we spend it together we had
our time with each other and then our time with our families but neither
of us weren't happy enough just knowing we had to spend the holidays away
from each other but it made us happy just getting to hear each others voices,
at this time we are making plans of what we wanted in life, we even had
plans of a child which we wanted a girl, and we had picked the name Chrissie
Lee out that was going to be our little girls name, and yes we believed
this with all of our hearts nothing could change
the way we felt about each other what was there was there,
we always had time for each other know matter if it was two o'clock
in the morning we made that time with out each other
we were lost I even caught my self so many times wanting to tell my mom
about this man that I loved so much, she knew that my marriage was going
down hill she seen what all I went threw at home and even her my mom told
me so many times why do you let someone treat you so bad, and my
excuse would be mom we have a child by each other, and she would always
tell me I know but your happiness you deserve as well I knew this deep
down, but I was so scared of my feelings scared to make a move and go on
with my life, Christmas wasn't even joyful at home seemed like all went
on was fighting and then bed time would come and I can remember going to
sleep with tears praying for god to help me answer me show me the way,
lead me in the right direction for me and my son, I wanted god to show
me on what to do about my life , but seemed like days would go by and I
would receive nothing I was giving up on my faith which I shouldn't have
done, but every morning I would wait for my husband to leave and
when he did I couldn't wait to either call this man or get on the internet
to see where he was I would find him and when I did I was so safe from
the world almost like he was holding me in his arms or being a shield that
wouldn't let any one bother me, But as I can remember it Christmas night
was special we had each other and the love we wanted was there, Christmas
is gone by and the year is coming to an end the year that turned out to
be so special to me, our plans together were to celebrate the coming of
the new year on line, and know one was going to stop us from doing that
and if you think about it how many people really do that not many of them
I am sure, Yes we were and the best way to do that was to take it right
from the top and I did just that , it went as perfect as anyone
could imagine 11.59 with 10.sec,s to go right to the
strike of midnight we had did it , I could not have made it any better
I hollered back at her on line we did it baby we did it , never in my life
was I ever so happy to do something knowing that on the other end of that
computer line she was just as happy you really can't describe that special
moment in someone's life unless you have been there to do it yourself .Have
you ever heard that old line try it you'll like it ? Well, we tried it
, and we loved it. There is no
better way of bringing in a new year then the way we
had done it. I remember I kept telling her that in no way could we be doing
this alone we were being helped with and by that big man above our lords
angel and that we have been blessed this far and will be forever in our
lives together. So the new year is here and now were following it day by
day, waking up to her little lines of hope, for that time
to come her wishing to make her life brighter, she told
me that if things did not change in her and her child's life that she would
be with me in April that's when I knew something was really wrong up there
in what I come to call the hell hole she was living in and she so agreed
to that as true, it was just that and she wanted out but she had
to keep trying to make it work for the sake of her family and I told her
that in 3 strikes he would be out and I would be in and she excepted my
word to that she knew I was not going
to back down at any cost and I would be there in waiting
. Everything I seem to do weather it be walking the beach, working, eating,
playing my music , spending time with my daughter and my grandkids , she
was always there in my thoughts and in my heart , my faith and love for
this woman I only knew by voice and on line told me that in do time she
would be my partner, my companion, my best friend, my love as my wife ,
all I had to do was let it happen, So here it is the first couple of days
into January and my feelings for this man was strong I was confused and
going threw a sickness that I had put my self into and lying to him, to
make him think I was fine and in good health, but I didn't have the heart
to tell him the truth, so the truth finally comes out
and he is very upset about what I had been doing to my self my whole self
esteem was gone for my self, and we both make the decision that January
the 16 I was flying to Florida to be with him and my son, at that time
I say okay but deep in my mind I was scared to what would happen to make
that move and what would my son think would he hate me for this I didn't
know what to believe at this point but I knew deep down my heart wanted
to be with this man, making
the move was the hardest part of all, how would I do
it how would I begin, I didn't know, so days pass and my heart is so happy
just thinking it would take four hours to meet this man that has helped
me in so much and helped me over come my sickness that I had, in everyway
he had helped me feel good about my self, So its Wednesday night I go to
church and that following Friday I was to meet him in Tampa, but then again
something tells me not to make the move just yet , I was setting in church
that night and I
wanted a true answer should I or shouldn't I make this
move so my heart tells me go home and talk to my husband about all was
on my mind so I do so, at that point I am so scared but I make the move
to tell him all, so I begin telling him what he was doing to me and our
son and that if he didn't change then I was leaving, he promises me nothing
but lies but at that point I think he is true about all he is telling me,
I wanted to get on line so bad to tell this man that is waiting on me but
at that point my husband tells
me I was know longer aloud to get on the computer
any more my heart falls to the floor, I don't know what to do I have to
talk to this man that I love so much, so that night I go to sleep crying
not knowing what to do, what to tell this man or how I was going to get
to tell him, this next day comes and I am made to get on line and do nothing
but lie to him but I throw in words that he knows isn't mine and hoping
he would catch on to what I was saying, and deep in my heart I know he
does, but as soon as I got the
chance to call him I did, and this man was there
waiting for my call, we both are so happy were in tears just to get to
hear each other's voice made a big difference in it all, I tell him
I was forced to write what I did by my husband that I didn't want to but
he had made me, and he answered back I knew that wasn't your words, January
slowly goes by day by day he would tease me, he would tell me that I would
be there with him by valentines day I would always reply know way to soon,
each night he would tell me
this , its meant to be this will happen I knew in my
heart that something had to come out of this but I didn't know what, so
my husband never did change didn't keep his promises if anything he got
worse with his drugs and his attitude, throwing things at me cursing me
staying on to of anything he could find, that s when I knew it was over,
my boy and I were going to have a better life with the man I cared so much
about and loved me for who I was, and was going to take my son and I under
his wings as his own,
everyday seemed to get worse by the minuet, income taxes
come and I didn't get any thing from them he took it all and used all of
it on drugs and didn't think about me nor my son, seemed like the month
of January was going bad I was getting sick again from starving myself
losing weight fast, the time comes to were I did eat and I couldn't keep
it down how was I to over come this sickness I had, and lying to this man
that held the key to my heart was about the hardest thing I could do, here
I have someone
miles away from me that loves me and cares for not only
me but my son as well and wants us in his life as we were his family, and
I wanted that more than anything I wanted my son a better life but this
scariness I have for my husband I just couldn't get it out of me scared
to talk, or was I wearing the right clothes, was I laughing to loud with
my son, always scared of making him mad was enough on me besides trying
to find away to be with this man that promised me the moon if he could
get it for me, and I knew deep
down that this man wasn't lying of all he would give
me and my son I new there was truth in his heart and his word because he
had not failed me yet and I knew he never would, but how was I to
make this move that I wanted, at this point I go to talk to my church and
they are welling to help me with all they could just to get my son and
I out of this home that wasn't good for neither of us they were welling
to take that extra step to help me with all they could, at this point I
start praying to the lord to show me signs
show me what I must do and I wanted and wanted for those
signs, and seemed like one day I woke up and all started hitting me right
in the face sign after sign I seen, I seen my husband taking drugs spending
all the money we had on his habit he had and I knew that these was the
signs that I had prayed so much to see, they hurt to see but all started
being played out like a deck of cards it was like a puzzle being put together
the answers were there and they were all opening up now right in front
of me, and at this point in
my life I know the angels have had a hand in bringing
us together knowing that a friendship like ours was simply meant to be,
but it was more than a friend to friend thing it was almost like being
married to him but looking at it in a way that he was just on a trip and
at the end I always new he would be there for my son and I, would always
look back over the months we had talked and shared so much of our lives
with and I would try to find the words that he said or the poems he wrote
me to see or understand what had happen here between us why were we pulled
together the way we were, it could only be meant to be we both agreed on
this so many times, here we were sharing our nights our days together as
if we were arm and arm with each other trying to make each other feel that
we were together with each passing minute but sometimes yes it did get
old because there were times that we just wanted to hold each other and
cry and love each other the way it should be and not by our computer's
I remember one night I was wanting to hear his voice so bad and as with
him he wanted to hear me as well I couldn't get the chance to call him
from home so I make up this big excuse that I needed to go down my moms
house at 10:00pm so I do, go to call him were both so happy to hear each
others voice but at that moment mom knows something is up, but all alone
she always told me she wished I would get out of the mess I was in always
trying to get me and my son to come live with her, or get up the courage
to get out at least, it comes to the point to where I tell her about this
man she doesn't like the idea or at least she tells me she don't but deep
down inside I know she does but for her telling me would come in a way
that I don't even know about at this time,
February comes rolling in and knowing that with all the trouble and pain
that she was going threw my time to make my move was there and I wasn't
going to turn back I told her it was time to make that choice before her
life was really to go down hill and she told me that was fine she had enough
hurt and that it was time to leave she said the twelfth would be the day,
the reason was that she wanted her son to have his eighth birthday with
his grandparents before she would make her dream of that new life come
true. All of a sudden I want to change the date to the
twenty second to keep anyone from knowing about it, I talk this over with
my church and they had planed to take me to Knoxville airport but I knew
my son had the fear of fling so that's when he decides to drive up and
get me from Knoxville, which would take time so I had to leave earlier,
I choice the sixth, I go to church and talk it over with them and the plans
are set as of February sixth to meet him in Knoxville so he had to leave
the fifth early that morning and my
son wasn't going to have his birthday in Harlan as of
now, this hurt me a little bit but I knew I had to do what I had to do,
to make his life as well as mine the best its ever been, and from here
on out I knew our lives would never be the same, they were
going to be better he told me he would be spending valentines day with
me and at that point I believed him I was going to spend that day with
him, that day was soon approaching up on us and he tells me to wipe out
and delete all that was on my computer leave know trail
behind to were my husband could get a hold of anything,
and I did my last contact with him on the computer he told me good luck
he was on his way he would see me on the morning of the sixth, so that
morning comes I have two close friends of mine from church picking me up
at my sons school, all I had with me were two bags and
my son his own bag, my son didn't know at the time anything if what was
going to be, so my friends come to the school and pick us up to take us
to Knoxville to meet this man that
means so much to me , as were driving to there
I call him two times to see where he is, he tells me he is in a white
ford tarsus, so we get to the point were we are to meet at a place called
the American steak house as setting in the parking lot I don't think I
had ever seen so many white cars in my life but I see one white car turning
of into the parking lot and at this point I know this is him my heart
had never felt so happy in so long, as it did when I see him getting out
of this car, we switch my bags from one car to the
other and off I am with the man that had talked and had
been there for six months of my life and had showed me and my son more
love than we had ever had, we stop to
eat at this little dinner when all of a sudden my sons
throws one of these tantrums and wants to go home I am stuck not knowing
what to do about this, but Ed talks to him and explains all to him
and from there on out all changes things start to look so much
better and our love that we have for each other takes
over us it seems like it takes forever for the three of us as my bond with
her and the little man I will come to know as my son to reach that new
place that we together will call home I catch myself sometimes laughing
at what has happen to me for it all came down to faith in thee above because
it does work when you want a change in your
life all you have to do is ask and believe and it will
come true, it surly has come true for me and I thank you lord for lending
me your helping hand.
As he said we are both
happy with our lives and how all turned out to be, he is my heart my friend
and someone that I would be lost to death if I didn't have him in
my life now I cant imagine not having him in my life, my son loves him
and they get along great which it has took some time for my son to except
us as we are but day by day that passes by he sees how happy his mom is
and he takes that in, with all the hurt a sadness I had in my life seven
months ago I never imagined my life could be filled with so much care as
it is now, its amazing how things have worked out a month ago I was ready
to give up all I had, give up on life and that meant giving up on my son
as well, but I never thought that I would ever find my way out of the dark
hole I was in and that's the way I felt all the time I begged for
help or cried out just for someone to hear me and help me or just
be my friend, and then this special man comes into my life and helps me
and my son escape the pain and sadness that we both had and takes us in
as his
own and loves us just as much as he does any one else,
a big step he took as taking us both on and being a father to my son that
really never had a father to do things with him and even share his thoughts
with, well now he has that and every time I see them together and sharing
what there day has been, it brings a tear to my eye just to see my son
finally have that man in his life and not just mom, I thank the lord as
well as he does for all he has done and all the angels that helped us both
not give up of something we
believed would happen as it did,
So here it is March
and were together and still happy as we could ever imagine taking life
as its gave to us, our love only grows with each passing day, and for us
were trying to have our little Chrissie as we had talked about months ago,
I would have never believed life could be as it is today, the darkness
that I once had is gone and the sun shines brighter for my son and I as
well as the man I love, he took me away and gave me something far beyond
just being happy he gave me life again, took away all the hurt I had
in me, he is always by my side and I know if I am feeling
down he will always say those special words to me as he always have, my
parents are happy of the move I have made for me and my son they know I
am happy and know that I did right by making the move I did, sure I am
miles away from them but they know as well as I do that I am there by love
and spirit and I haven't gone a day without calling them, but as for me
and my son were both happy and we feel the love that is given to us, if
I hadn't made the
change I did today I wouldn't know were I would be or
what would be going on in my life today, it took me a while to get use
to the fact of someone loving me as I do them because I was always
given the love and never receiving it back but now I give it and receive
it, for so long I was scared of the word love but this man showed me that
everyone isn't mean and cruel that there are people out there that care
and can give you the love that you need and that's exactly what he done
all the years I spent in hell sometimes I wonder was it meant to be that
way, because at one time in my life I thought all people were good, but
from this I not only found out that people do care I learnt that what ever
happens in life there are ways out, and that there is an angel out there
that can help you and that's just what I found, I will always believe that
this man was sent to me by god and the angels in heaven helped us both
out, and showed us what we had to do, we had that faith and never gave
up in what we wanted and all our dreams we
talked about and all the words we spoke to each other
are planned in our hearts like a plant that grows beside the waters they
never die because they always have what they need and now I can say I have
all I will ever need in love, caring, faith, a campaign I know that
this man will never lead me wrong and watch over my son and I, for all
the days we talked and so many hours we spent talking, all the laughing
and crying we did together I thank god for each and everyone of them, I've
heard so many people say we get
trouble and trials to learn from them and I use to think
how can you learn from your mistakes, but now I look back at those words
and I do believe them we do learn from them nothing never happiness with
out a cause and this is what had happen here god sent me this man and I
learned so much from him that life is just more than waking up and doing
the same routine everyday get out and explore the world, live life as its
your last day here on earth and love what you have not because you have
it but because you were
given a chance at it, and ever who said there not angels
out there I don't believe that because they are, my angel talks to me sleeps
with me, walks by my side and never leaves me alone, and to this I call
him my husband that we will soon be come June the fifteenth on fathers
day as well as his daughters birthday for my love only grows stronger for
him and he is the best father to my son and soon will have a child that
was made from the both of us, I look at life in a different way now when
morning comes and he is
laying along beside me its like he is my strength to
go on with each passing day he gives me hope to go on and makes me happy
for what I done, he is my sunshine my rainbow with each word that we speak
to each other only makes our life brighter, six months ago I would have
never thought that my life as well as my sons life would have came to a
change as it is today but all is for the better even though I lost two
sisters of doing what I had to do doesn't change a thing about the way
I feel for this man, so don't
never say never and never think that you can never escape
a abusive life or marriage because you can I did and was so sacred but
once I left that house I was so relieved and I left my pain behind sure
I still think back to what my life was for nine years, but I have to over
come that and start out a new life
to make my son happy as well, and to all of this I thank
the angels that helped me over come the scariness I had within my self
and thank them for the new life me and my son has now it could never be
better each morning of my life now is different I don't have to worry about
waking up and knowing how my day is going to be, I know now each day will
be as bright as the sun that shines down on the waters, for all this my
angels still stand with me guides me to were I need to be and gives me
the joy that I need for
each passing day, I opened my ears up my heart up and
I was given a whole new life for my son and I we do have a new life,
I will always know that it was meant to be this way and love the
man that my angels help me get to for caring and his loving thoughts that
he always gave me, and love me for who I am. Our love was patient, it was
and still is kind, it don't envy it wasn't proud, it wasn't
rude, it wasn't self seeking, it wasn't easily angered, it kelp no records
of anger, it keep no record wrong. The
love we had didn't delight in evil but rejoiced with
the truth, it always protected us, they were always trust, always hope.
Always persevered, love never failed neither of us, and now these three
remain of us faith, hope and love, but the greatest of all of these we
had and still does do have is love, and this is how a loving couple should
treat each other love is the main thing that all couples should have and
that's what we do have for each other is love, nothing nor know one can
take that away from us, for all the trouble and all the pain that we both
have had in these seven months I think we deserve all the happiness we
can get, and all the love we also can get , each day that passes by we
always think our angels for all the work and all the days that they helped
us over come, have truly done there work for us. Having almost traveled
twelve hundred miles to make both of our dreams really come true and to
take away any doubts in anyone's minds that something so magical could
ever happen to her or I or anyone for that
matter is the gift of a life time that we both wish everyone
had at least one time to experience but to challenge the odds and win is
what its a about and when you do win its only with that special help that
extra something , that we both tried to figure out but at the end we see
our lives as one and what ever comes we together will fix all the trouble
that life throws at us, we will work as we have from the beginning and
like we have since I have been with him, sure life throws problems at us
all but the thing to do is talk things out and work as if we have
a life time, but of all we love each other more everyday we share our thoughts
with each other and our problems are worked out together not as one but
as a couple that we are and will be, only more good can come out of this
fascinating relationship which it can only be, god grants these special
relationships far and few between I guess we must be one of the few that's
out there what a honor to be blessed with this event, miracles do happen
to those who believe but with that you have to have also faith ,hope,
and surly lots of love, or nothing like this could have never happened,
its amazing what computers can do, bring two people together as it has
us can only be faith we believed it then and we believe it now, to make
things work as they have is another thing to have it happen is another
thing but out of all of this we have each other my son and the baby that
we will have, the man I will soon marry the blessings that my parents have
gave to this man, for taking me and my son from what he did he
has all of there love, my family has took him in as one
of there own, for now things look great just as planned for us and our
family soon to be, for his family also took me and my son on as we were
always in there family they show all there love to us both, and for me
being a mother and a grandmother to his daughter and his grand children,
and for him being a father to mine has only made things in our lives that
much more special, my son now has a sister that he never thought he would
have and looks up to her as if
she was his big sister all along, for so many hills that
I had climbed threw out my life and never seem to reach the top with out
trouble, he knocked down those hills to were I could see what lied on the
other side he opened all that was in me that was there for so long but
never could find its way out, all the bad things are gone and filled with
happiness I now look at life as a gift and not another day, the air I breath
is so much better, I don't see those mountains anymore I see flat land
and sunny beaches, the air
is clear the sun so bright, the sunset is so beautiful,
but of all of this there is love that I long for so long and never could
get, at one time I didn't think I would ever find that love that I longed
for so long, but all the words we spoke and all the wonderful days we spent
on the computer we will never forget about we hold them so dear and close
to our hearts, that's why we wish to share this festinating and true story
of real faith of real hope of real love, that we share as one, that others
we hope will read with reason and
understanding anything can happen in life if you out
your heart to it and this is how it all came a bought if it wasn't for
a story that we both chose to look into, of all things a chat line, my
name was hope angel eyes his name was Sunday rain and those names we can
never forget, but with each passing day that we talked we read our horoscope
and they came out as we were living our lives day by day, he taught me
how to read the stars and the way I taught her was to show her that the
inter heart of our souls revolves
around those stars there your everyday way of living
and that there's nothing false about them this goes back to the beginning
of time its self when all they had were the stars in the heavens to make
there day go by, they studied them they watch them , in a way the stars
told each of us how to live right not wrong in this world we call earth.
If you look at the blind side of your self and ask where's everyone well
when times get rough and it seems your life feels hopeless and yet you
pick yourself up and put the
pieces back together yet your still alone in the dark
because your star isn't shining , you just want to scream out but there's
no one there to hear you or listen and then you say to yourself can I walk
that extra mile will I find what im looking for, can I find that road that
everyone wishes to travel down, maybe so maybe not that choice in your
life has to be yours and no one else'sfor you want all the goods inside
to be right at your feet well that won't happen as easy as said if it were
that way this world surly would have ended a long time ago. For Gracie
and Ed we both knew the risk we both knew the truth that would come out
of all of this, but for the best of all reason's we took on that challenge
weather it was wrong but in our lords eyes it was right and we both knew
it in our hearts to make it and let it happen yes we will have our hard
times , but we will have our good times and many of them more to come only
because we come to believe in each others hearts souls and minds and that
it only came by way of our feelings
and the true answers to both
Our angels answers.
