Hello Debi,
it sounds as if you've had more than your share of hardship in your life. I wish you weren't dealing with the Lupus. I sometimes struggle with why some folks have so much to deal with in life and others seem to skate by. I know that no one has it easy all the time, life just isn't like that, but I wish that once in awhile I could pray for someone and it would bring about a real change for them. Hang in there gal.
Blessings,
Tom

This is a poetically honest mini life review...
Something we sometimes are called to do when our health has become challenging and times seem hard.
You offer a clear eyed view of Debi as a real human. Not always perfect, a sin or two along the way, certainly some painful losses--but Debi who has not ever let go of faith and who is determined to serve the Lord....
That's who I know, respect, and admire....
Always!

It seems as if you had a lot of stars in the firmament of your life. Someone was there to teach you most everything, including a few pranks. It sounds like your life would be perfect if only lupus would take a hike.

LOL Carol, I like to keep my thinking positive. It's much easier to do when you always have your faith to look toward. So as much as my life really hasn't been all sunshine and butterflies, I like to think on those terms as I have my Jesus to make it feel better.
And thank you, my dear friend for the kindness in your words as your friendship means so much to me. Much love and hugs. Debi

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Dear Debi, I think this is a lovely way to remind yourself of all the qualities that make you you. We can often be harsh on ourselves, expecting more and forgetting simply to be grateful. Your verse demonstrates in succinct detail, not a carefully choreographed life but, like us all, the "bits and pieces" that make up the jig-saw puzzle of who we are today. In your case, Debi, a devout and loving wife, mother and grandmother as well as a genuine friend, forever inspired and strengthened by your deep faith. Thank you for sharing. Love Debbie

The author's words are filled with memories, love, and creativity. I
liked how the author expressed well the details of so many instances
the bits and pieces of her life. I really enjoyed the last stanza which says it all! The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome and goes
so well with these words. Great Poem, Debi!

This is very interesting what you have penned about you. I am so sorry about the Lupus. My BFF here where I live has Lupus also. She is always in a lot of pain. You will be in our prayers. Jesus is our hope and helps us to take the aches and pains we suffer in this life until He takes us hope to be with Him! love and blessings, Teri

Oh Teri, you and I have talked many time in the past years about how my lupus and your MS are like sister diseases. Remember? I never forgot because we had said we would pray for each other, and I still pray for you daily.
Thank you for all the kind word for my lifetime post, my dear friend.
Love, Debi

You are in my prayers too!!!

And this is why I'm proud to be called your brother, your friend!
Need I say more? Okay, fine.
You took us on a lifetime journey in a few stanzas and words that read easily, in perfect rhyme and kept us (at least me) intrigued!
Excellent post, sis.
