Reaching out
I have not been on the site lately. I lost my baby brother, Bill, to the wretched disease of alcoholism last week. I will miss him.
My gift to him and my family was a memorial and remembrances which I also received in turn.

Thanks for your vulnerability in sharing this
Mbali

Yeah, I hear you, sister. I'm feeling similarly, in case you have not read my latest post. Cry it out and laugh it out. Stay busy and stay focused on giving. We'll get through this! ;-)
Thursday, Dec. 17 was my 29th day of this giving challenge. I started off giving some extra time to a client. I also gave lots of loving pets to her old dog who does not have much longer to live. My client gave me some delicious protein bar snacks a…
Another gray frigid day, no visible and warming outer sun on this Winter Solstice day, and that encouraged me to reach down deep where my Inner Sun is always shining. Today was my last day of picking up last-minute items to include in holiday packag…

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Loosing a sibling can be a very difficult thing to go through. I know from personal experience.
I wish you warmth, deep love and care and comfort through this transition, and if you want someone to talk to who has been through it, even though you don't know me, I'm available to you.
Kind Regards, Mark www.greenproductsconsultant.com

I'm going to be introducing 29gifts to other singles at the Singles Extravanganza in at the Clarion Hotel in Millbrae tonight at 7:30pm. Come party if you can! More details at www.ThePartyHotline.com.
I was in Reno of all places and a group that works to save tigers was there. His name is Raj and he is six months old, big boy! Tigers are my guardian spirits.
I am a transplanted southern girl. My Fathers family was in Atlanta before electricity and now are in Decatur. I have lost touch and can't seem to find them. My Aunt Betty married Bud Brown. A little to common a search. He was a Mason.
Are you being wedded in Monterey?
I am loving your pic! How did you come to be with the white tiger? they are my daughter's favorite animal.
