Lan, I don't know what else to say to you other than what we talked about on the phone tonight. Things are never as hopeless as they seem. My heart is very burdened for you. I hate to seeing someone going through a rough time - but you have to gain strength from it. As I told you, not everyone is a bad guy. These things are happening for a reason - what reason? I have no idea. Well, I do have an idea, but you don't want to hear it right now. Look at it this way when things do start to go right - you will certainly recognize it!!! You have to think positive thoughts!

No words I say right now will make things change - we in ourselves have to bring about the changes in our lives by our choices. You have made yours very clear from our conversation - I'm not condemning anything you say. I know what "hell" is like going through. Been there, done that!

You can deny God all you want, sweetie, but guess what that doesn't mean He doesn't exist. You just don't see Him yet. I'm convinced you will. There is a great working here that you just don't understand - you can't because it is not of this world.

Just hang in there! I care very deeply for you and am very concerned about you as I told you. I shared some of those thoughts with Melisa too. I am not a fair weather friend, I have no agenda as far as you are concerned. I just know that good friendship don't come along all that often and I hope that you count me as one of them - even though you feel very deserted right now. Guess what - I am here for you.

Let me share a quote that I read today - I dedicate it you:

"The most I can do for my friend . . . is simply to be his friend." Thoreau

I know you are not feeling right now - you say that - but you are feeling - because I feel emotion (which is feelings) coming from you.

I love you, friend.
Nancy
