Francie,
You are not alone in your journey of awakening. This road is a hard one but very worth it! Please hang in there, as you can see you are not alone.
Love with all of your heart and every fiber of your being! This world needs souls like you and all whom have come to your call... Your love, caring, and the pain you feel due to the conditions of this world aren't for not! Those loving thoughts matter and most importantly, you matter.
Never close your heart; never harden it to your fellow human beings. Fight in the spirit of love and love will fight along side you.
With love to you and all ~ God Bless
