Good morning dear friends…Happy Friday ! May you all have a blessed day and every day 🙂 I am so grateful for so many wonderful thigs happening in my life. Not sure if I mentioned it before that I deeply desire to go to Medjugorje on a pilgrimage. I don’t want to go alone and have been searching for someone to go with me. I posted on Facebook about the pilgrimage. The man who is organizing it knows about my situation. He spoke to a woman he is friends with and she messaged me. Her and I talked for over an hour on the phone. And with the help of Gods grace we will be going together in September or October . She is making some phone calls and is getting back to me in a few days . Please pray this all works out for us. Thank you !

Good evening dear friends, I haven’t been here in a while. I have a new love….Yup no not a person….Last week I started something new for me. I said to myself I’d like to paint a picture for my living room. Now my artistic ability is sort of preschool….but let me see how it goes. Totally hooked ! It’s rather interesting how it turned out. And it’s a great feeling of accomplishment. So I am grateful for the opportunity to experience the joy of creating my own masterpiece….good or bad it’s mine 🙂

My father is my hero. He passed away in 1986, but I will forever remember how great a men he was. He had a heart of gold. The most generous and compassionate person I have ever known. I admire him for so many reasons. My daddy was visually impaired but that never stopped him from achieve. A hard worker..Daddy had a successful gourmet restaurant. It was featured in several magazines ..Ford Times, Esquire , and Family Circle. One of his passions was raising funds for retarded children.His good friend had a son who was mentally retarded . His friend built a center..it was in Warwick RI. My did raise a lot of money for the center.
Such a kindhearted man daddy was. My mom told me when she was dating him one cold night, they were out and my dad saw a boy selling newspapers …the boy did not have gloves on ..My father went into a store and bought the boy a pair of gloves. that’s the kind of person he was. Eugene B. LaCasio ..daddy I love you!

It has brought me to a deeper relationship with Jesus. I live alone, but I am not alone ..He is always with me. My adult children are near by which I am grateful for. I see them once a week. With the help of Gods grace this evil virus will be defeated soon. The good that comes out of the bad ..I’ve noticed many people reaching out to help others for example some people are offering to shop for elderly people.

This situation reveals to me how the USA needs to put God back into our nation….and the whole world. Our Lady of Medjugorje (hope I spelled that right ) is calling us to Pray Pray Pray !!!

Greetings Manali !
Nice to meet you. Family is so important. And I am also blessed to have my daughter and son close by. You are a strong soul. I am grateful for the struggles, and dark times in my life because they have brought me closer to God and made me stronger. I’m visually/hearing impaired with neuropathy so bad I have to use a walker …But I am a survivor of depression /anxiety …was treatment resistant ….but through prayer and reading the Bible I was healed !!!! I have peace, joy and love more than ever in my life . God bless you!
