I wont get into my whole life except to say that I was one of those people that was always given chances. No matter the trouble I was in I got another chance, people saw "something in me worth helping", words I heard so often and my reply was "glad you do, i sure don't". I think today that if I went to those people (teachers, police, therapists, etc) they would all say "see you are a nice person with a big heart and we knew you would do OK." I am not giving a compliment to myself as much to them, a very honest compliment and sincere thanks. The same happens with each bad friend I would make, for every one I would seem to wind up with 2 good friends that would enter my life. Some I have even reconnected with through Facebook. Over time I learned just as with love, true friends and good people see deeper, they can really see what's in your heart and see the good or the real you. And of coarse they care.

Spirit? Angel?-
When I was a preteen I would see this shadow on my wall, it scared me and I would ignore it. Sometimes the shadow moved some and looked like a figure, at some point I couldn't ignore it any longer, it moved with me a bit until I got to the kitchen, then I heard a creaking and looked in the family room and I saw my grandmother in a rocking chair. She had passed away when I was 5, she never spoke but it seemed like she had an expression of "things will be OK, and I will always be proud of you." also grammy was blind during my entire child hood yet i could tell she could see me her eyes fallowing my movements.
I told my mom in the morning, she didn't believe me at first until I described the blanket, chair, and other things which she said I couldn't have known. We went through photos to see if there were any of her with those details, there wasn't. She then believed that I saw her. Some people might think it was my imagination, no matter, I know it wasn't and I know she is always watching over me and proud of me. to this day I never saw the shadow again on my wall.

Marriage!!
The most wonderful of miracles in my life is my husband. It's a more recent miracle than the others and is full of love and mystery!
We met through a friend and stayed connected online. We both had given up on finding real love any place, but when we where not looking it happened. I suppose most would say that's how it should be. Both of us had lost our moms within the previous year, and had earlier in our lives lost our dads. We were both still grieving our Moms' passing, and it was affecting each of our lives. He had gotten addicted to computer games, playing all night long and had a cluttered home, me well I went through money my mom gave me very quickly (through buying things for friends mostly), I had stopped eating, and really didn't care much except for the computer. After we met our lives changed. None of what I listed stayed the same, we became friends, lovers, and soon engaged, then married. We sold our homes and bought a house together. We believe our parents may have brought us together. There is a funny story related to that idea, when we were unpacking boneware sets I thought was my Mom's and instead it was his Mom's, they were the exact same pattern and it turned out that the pieces that they were each missing, were completed by the others set. The first time I called my Mom's giant plant "Charlie" he laughed and said "my mom had a big plant she called charlie as well." I could go on with small weird things, but suffice to say that the more these things occurred the bigger the connection of our Moms became and the more we felt we were meant to be together. He often says that I saved his life, he had been on antidepressants and didn't care about living any longer, and I know he saved mine. I always say I married my love and my best friend in the world. I was a drinker for some time and once we met I have not drank or wanted to since. I hadn't even thought about it enough to realize it for months. Oh I will have one at an event or at a dinner party, but that is even more and more rare. Some may say a geographical change caused me to quit, others might say love, I just know he saved my life and I have never felt this wonderful ever... and he often says the same.
