GRACIOUS GIFTS of GRATITUDE, A CELEBRATION 10-22-17

-


When you give your problem(s), a situation, and even your life to God, it’s utterly amazing what can happen!
I wanted to find a way to thank all the wonderful people in my Life for all they have given me.
It's my birthday soon so, I needed it to be a joyous occasion to say "thank you” to all the wonderful, loving and supportive people who mean so much to me..
So, my dear friends, I gave a party to emphatically say to everyone “Thank You!”
Paintings, posters and pictures, all dressed in a gratitude theme, decorated the room at the assisted living, where I live.
I wrote the following for all my friends and family:
Thank you!
With sincerity, love and gracious gratitude,

Dear Friends and Family,
Thank you for coming to my Gratitude Celebration!
You all mean so much to me!
You’ve been with me through a wide range of experiences in my Life.
You’ve rejoiced with me in good times.
You’ve supported me in those days of trials and pain.
We’ve all had good days and bad days.
My good days were sweeter because you were there.
My bad days were tolerable because you were with me.
I pray I’ve been as much of a friend that you’ve been to me.
I hope I’ve been that loving sister that you could count on.
I pray, Mother, that I’ve been that daughter you dreamed I’d be when you saw me for the 1st time.
God blessed me abundantly when He put every single one of you into my life
I want to thank every one of you for being a significant part of my life!







May God Bless You All! Love,
                                              Evelyn (Pinto)

The Medical Profession: Problems 5-6-2024

Serious Problems That Circulate Among The Medical Profession There have been countless advances in the medical field. These fascinating evolutions have saved my life and the lives of countless others! These medical miracles have improved the lives of multitudes and have also created paths of wellness in the lives an infinite number of others! Though this is fascinating news and it all benefits humankind, there are serious problems in the presentation of medical treatment. How medical professionals communicate with their patient(s)  can steal the worth and good out of these medical miracles. Through these medical marvels are wondrous, it feels to me that needed changes need to brought forth in how well these medical professionals  communicate with their patient(s). People with serious and chronic health conditions, especially those who require more medical care and treatments, like myself,  know well that  the Healthcare System needs improvements that would benefit th...

The Passing of One of My Dearest Friend, Reverend Ernest Batten With sadness, sorrow and immeasurable grief, one of my dearest friends, Reverend Ernest Batten, passed away on April 17, 2024. Reverend Ernest Batten left these Earthly Dwellings and has risen into the Heavenly Realms. Reverend Ernest Batten is now sheltered in the loving Arms of Jesus and has been reunited with his dear and faithful wife, Elsie Batten. With my heart too heavy to measure, I am now suffering immeasurable grief. Now, my good friends, I will tell you of my faithful and compassionate friend, Reverend Ernest Batten.

Senior Living Residence, how beautiful, loving, wonderful and astonishing this world actually is! Ernie, I and all of us, residents live in this bright, clean and warm/co...
