Asha,

I have held onto hope because of your positive words even while grieving,even while doubting you,even thinking well that is for you but not me. I needed those words like a lifeline in the sea storm. Many late nights those words comforted me to sleep like promises whispering in the wind.

Your stories, rich pieces of your culture that you share, have helped me understand and think deeply about human nature,about my own nature.

You are walking through a different stage of this video game. Thank you for sharing your tips about how to navigate through the other levels you have been through by sharing your personal journey and experiences.

Asha, I admire how you look for ways to grow in every encounter, every experience. And how you are grateful for everything,are aware of hidden blessings. I know you have journeyed through some dark valleys,so I look to your example and when I too fall, I remember someone else did too but made it through. So thank you for your honest posts.

Asha, when I posted blogs about running here and there trying to find a solution to Ray's many medical problems you were the one who slowed me back down, taught me to go with the flow.  I still use those lessons in my widow life and when i get anxious sometimes i think, "take it slow, go with the flow". I am sure many of your other readers have learned the same lesson from you and like me look to read your blogs to get those words of wisdom from them.

I ABSOLUTELY adore the time with Asha.  As she said,looking back on what she first told me now makes a lot of sense. I often felt, 'how could you see this as a positive?' She has got to be delusional but over time her words are more truer than most of what I was told be my doctors.  She is truly a genuine soul and I look forward to our days together... as long as no road construction lol  

Asha and Kelli - good for you two. Always a positive meeting up and being honest, good conversation. And for two survivors - great to trade stories and concerns. Debbie
