I read Jackie's comments and totally understand being immersed. I wasn't able to read Sara all the time but I would go back and catch up, even reading posts from a few years back. She never failed to amaze and inspire me. You are the same.<br /><br />That sunset is unbelievably spectacular. I had to call Hannah in here to look at it. I'm so sorry the incision site grows worse and I'm glad the doctor will be on it. I'll look forward to this week....Robynn's Ravingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619286823020924023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-54195866253867902092011-09-18T20:05:50.720-05:002011-09-18T20:05:50.720-05:00Vicky....I had never read anything written by Gitz...Vicky....I had never read anything written by Gitz. It was meant for me to go there...to be there. I spent hours on her site. I can't tell you how blessed I am because of that. <br />I also can't tell you how I cried. It's impossible to verbalize...but I know that you know. <br />Thank you for sharing Gitz with me. <br />I love you, Vicky....<br />JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214796594702277709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-17496524568118439062011-09-17T15:09:22.513-05:002011-09-17T15:09:22.513-05:00did you find your journal?did you find your journal?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17674599982885673432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-45426650574007103352011-09-17T15:07:21.887-05:002011-09-17T15:07:21.887-05:00very well written! prayers going out now for the q...very well written! prayers going out now for the quick healing of your incision - love what your profile says about "expanding" your time! People don't know what kind of pain I am in- my family sees me in the bed all the time- I have to rest up for our special adventures- but, we have them! I'm not gonna quit no matter what - I really have nothing to complain about - I choose joy!

Several people mentioned getting a tattoo of "Choose Joy" or their "word of the year" (that Sara wrote so beautifully). I don't think I'm a tattoo person, but I'm trying to think of a way to visibly be reminded of Sara every day- something that would honor her legacy, and keep "Choose Joy" at the forefront of my mind. She taught me so much!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05929099565471486314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-30479565504299832662011-09-16T16:22:51.466-05:002011-09-16T16:22:51.466-05:00Aw Vicky ,These are things that happen more so tha...Aw Vicky ,These are things that happen more so than you think and they are a pain in the ass. but as long as things keep moving forward that's the most important thing.<br />I am pushing for a full recovery for you.I am looking ahead, as should you.<br />Right now, I too am with a broken wrist and its going to take a year to heal, if all goes well that is.<br />They took the cast off yesterday and today it's painful, stiff and goes between swelling and unswelling, after some exercise and the damp weather doesn't help either. <br />We just have to dig in, keep fighting and moving forward.It's amazing how inner strength can help the body fight.<br />Tears also help as they cleanse the soul.<br />I am truly sorry about your friend.<br />I am not good with the passing of people.

I took time to read her blog the other night and I have not gotten her out of my mind, nor will I. Any time I feel the propensity toward feeling sorry for myself...I realize how wasted the energy is. Yes, I'm human. Yes, I will fail. But now, I have Sara to guide me away from thoughts of doom. What a beautiful soul, and I can so easily see how you two because online friends. I am so happy to know you found one another and offered one another such beautiful support and friendship. From what I can tell, that blessing will not end anytime soon.<br /><br />Thanks for continuing to read my words. I always love yours. And I love our connection. I am eagerly awaiting a visit when the time is right. I will wait for your lead. Meantime, you can count on my perpetual thoughts and frequent prayers. I will be at a weekend retreat with some faith sisters from college, and you will be with me in a sense, reminding me of the inner joy and hope that are always possible through faith.Roxane B.
