ME-as I go through this zany, marvelous, difficult experience called: "LIFE"!

Easter, A Lifelong Relationship with God through the Crucifixion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ/  With Easter and with other holidays, at times, the day is, more important than what it stands for. What Easter signifies is a lifelong relationship with Our Heavenly Father made possible through Jesus. Easter is made anew every second, every minute, every hour, and every day. All I have to do is believe. Once I believe and truly accepted Jesus, my life changed. As I transformed, my life began to fall into place. I found comfort as I placed my life in God’s Hands. I live my faith with the security that Jesus walks with me on the journey of my life.   I’m okay because I am in the Arms of God. This doesn’t mean my life is easy. And it certainly doesn’t mean terrible things will not happen. Life happens, and with life, both horrific and joyful things will happen. As my life goes on, there is a calm, gentle peace in me.

The Rain Does anyone notice how when it rains, the air feels so fresh? I have always been fascinated by the rain! I love how it sounds, how it feels,how it smells and the taste of rain. I am gently put to sleep by the melody of the rain! I can't think of a better bedtime lullaby? God Is Good All The Time!

                    THE VISITOR'S WORDS The visitor approached His words were razor sharp As his words flew at me, They tore into my soul, Cutting, tearing and with callous My mind became a whirlwind As it fluttered from time, space and being The visitor continued to speak In a critical and condescending manner I shuddered and wept As he continued, with criticism and condemnation My tears were as a volcano, Flooding the room where we both were It became difficult to breathe My breath slowed And felt as if it, and any minute, My breathing was going to stop As the visitor departed I gently cuddled what was left of my soul Put my head on straight And with apprehension and fear Approached the humans again                      Evelyn Pinto                     March 18, 2018

“I’m Home!” After approximately a week as a medical patient in the hospital, I am finally “Home”! I was discharged late this afternoon (Friday). I’m overjoyed to be with my friends again. I’m looking forward to awesome times with my family, hoping they can visit me. I was really, really sick! I was diagnosed and treated for the infamous flu and pneumonia. Antibiotics and Tamiflu were the treatments, besides being closely observed by the hospital staff. Because of the diagnoses of Diastolic Congestive Heart Failure, COPD, Asthma, a paralyzed diaphragm in my left lung, IGG deficiency and other debilitating things wrong in my body, I’m a high risk patient.   I try to remain positive. At times, I do sulk into my “Evelyn Moments” but, not very frequently or for very long in duration. I’m home now and I am fortunate to be home. I’m just going to kick of the shoes, get into a comfortable nightshirt and go to bed! Maybe it’s what my body has b

I'm looking out at this gosh awful winter storm and feel the freezing cold. I nostalgically wish for other more comfortable weather. I think to myself: God gave me this day. I woke up today, in pain-yes but, I woke up. I saw the sun rise today! I have so very much to be grateful for. God has truly blessed me, and blessed me abundantly! I may not have lots of money or expensive items but, I'm richer than most people! My health may not be great and I'm sick a lot but, I make friends wherever I go! My family may not always give me everything I want but, they love me lots. They are very much there for me and give what I need! My friends and I may not go out on the town but, they're there for me and I know I can depend on them! I may be alone more than I want to be but, I'm really not alone because wherever I am, Jesus is! You see, I can rejoice and be glad today! Thanks Be To God!                    Evelyn Pinto
