We do tend to be in the minority. I am going to miss the snakes of Texas, there is a very large variety there, Nearly every species found in the US can be found there. Plus a few like the Texas cat eye snake and the Lyre Snake are only found there.

Greetings and peace be with you snakelegs, I am so sorry to hear that you are suffering, and there is very little any of us can say, except that we keep you in our prayers. You are such a caring and helpful person.

About four years ago a friend of mine was told she had cancer in the stomach, she was seventy at the time. She said to the doctor, tell me the worst possible scenario; bearing in mind I have far too much to do and I haven’t got time to die.

She is still going strong today, she does so much for the disabled in our community voluntarily, and she would be greatly missed.

Here is a simple yet powerful prayer whilst striving for peace in your heart.
Lord grant me the peace and serenity to live with the things I cannot change
Give me the courage to change the things I can.
And give me the wisdom to know the difference.

To understand how the prayer works here is how one lady used it whilst living in London during the second world war. Most days London was being bombed, she had no control over were the bombs would land. She would hear about; and see the death and destruction; she might be killed, her family might be killed, her home or work or shops might be bombed. Yet every day she had to get up, feed herself and her family, and do some work.

The first line of the prayer, grant me the peace and serenity to live with the things I cannot change.
She had to live with all the injustice, fear, anger, hate, death and destruction surrounding her. She could not change what happened yesterday, she cannot change other people. If you continually want to change; or try to change the things that cannot be changed you will make become more stressed.

Give me the courage to change the things I can.
The only thing she could change was herself and what was going on in her own heart and mind. Somehow she would have to keep coping or crack up, she did not know how long this destruction would last. Despite all the problems she directed her prayer to finding peace in her heart.

Give me the wisdom to know the difference.

The last line of the prayer is something you have to work out for yourself , you need to search for the real things that you can change; and strive to live with loving kindness with all the things you cannot change.

In the spirit of praying for an inner peace with God, that surpasses all understanding.

i first discovered this prayer (serenity prayer) about 30 years ago - long before i believed in god. i thought it was the wisest prayer i have ever read. altho very simple, you can reflect on the truth in it for a very long time.
thanks for the reminder - i can use it now!
 
thanks crayon and malaikah (you haven't been around for awhile).
even though i have not thanked everyone individually on this thread, i have read all your posts more than once and appreciate each and every one.
 
Hey, How you duin' SnakeLegs..? InshAllah your making a quick recovery. Get well soon .x.
 
thanks for asking. right now i am in bureaucratic deep freeze - waiting for things to happen.
to be honest, unfortunately, it is almost certainly not something that will make for a quick recovery, if any. :unhappy:
 
nothing is impossible with Allah you may wake up healthy %100 if Allah wants....

may Allah heal you my dear....

Ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen
 
Bureaucratic - it means you are waiting for the papers to move until the docs will give you the solution :?
