Both of you guys helped me immensely; I can literally directly relate to both, so thanks; and yes, I have read Conversations with God; wisdom seems to be hitting me harder than ever before, but relying on God in the process has allowed me to get through the life process easier even though it may very well be harder; I seem to be thoroughly convinced that I have what some would call a guardian angel that allows me to tolerate the pain pretty well considering how much much is coming at me. In response to the first response on this thread, I am trying to practice discernment a lot more like you have worked on and gotten much better at. I feel absolutely blessed, and I know that these two responses were giant blessings. I would love to hear more from you two if you don't mind (and of course to whoever else reads all of these posts and has something to add). Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you. I cannot overstate how much this helped!
