  • From a middle aged woman:  “Oh, I wish my husband were living.  I need his support so much.  You see my son was arrested this past week.  I knew a few years ago the road my son was on was probably going to lead him to this but now that it’s here I can’t stop grieving.  As a mother I tried to get him to change his direction but then deep within me I knew he never would.  I knew deep down he couldn’t.  I remember as a boy how determined he was to follow in his Father’s footsteps.  I didn’t quit understand it all as he was growing up but I stored it within my heart.  I wanted to protect him but I had to let him go and that’s what hurts so bad.  Friday was the worst day.  It was torture.  My heart broke as I lost my son.  But then I’m hearing rumors today that I may not have lost my son.  Could it be true?”   by Mary the Mother of Jesus.

    What do you do when you see an endangered animal that is eating an endangered plant?

  • Wow…

    … and I just listened to your snapvine messages! That is so cute!! I wanted to do this thing too but I can’t figure out how to do it! I need to just sit down and figure it out I guess… ha. You have to give them your phone number though right? Doesn’t that make you nervous… ? That is where I stopped…

  • interesting.

    I won’t know how to feel being a mother in those times.

  • Blessed Mother of God is an exemplary human being.  A serious cut above all women…”all nations  s h a l l  call you blessed.”  Your little exerpt allows the reader to see her as any mother who dearly loves and looses their child….very contemporary.  Your last statement is “stunning” because the reader instantly realizes who this grieving woman is.  It is astonishing, really!  You brought one of her Seven Sorrows right up to front and center in such an in-depth, contemporary way that anyone who has a mother or is a mother can fully understand it.  Splendid!

  • i believe it’s english…

  • oh sorry bout the one above this comment i commented you with my friends site^^

  • hello and have a good week

  • just out to have fun, with friends and wife.

  • Um. wow. That could have been any mom today… that’s so.. just … wow.

  • who exactly are you?

    WHY

  • You drag the endangered animal away and put it in the zoo, that’s what!
    Danish pancakes are good and the difference is you roll them up and fry them in a different way (I didn’t see how they did that part) and put powdered sugar on and squished cheesecake in the middle and you use a fork and knife to eat it and they were invented in Denmark too. But Lacey said they are just like this type of French pastry which I forget its name. I don’t know. They’re good.

  • I am Wil from Jackson, Mississippi.

    WHY

  • It’s called the food chain….lol

  • whats one interesting thing about me?

  • um, hi. I don’t know what to say, to talk about myself…

    I want to see a ghost. really bad. that’s all.

  • As long as a human is not interfering I don’t mind

  • ryc, I spent half an hour trying to think of an answer and wrote a poem instead. Is that interesting?

  • What if the endangered plant is poisonous and the endangered animal eats it anyhow?

    In all honesty, I have trouble telling trees apart, much less knowing which plants are endangered.   I’d probably figure, “Eh, the nice little animal is hungry and looks so cute eating that strange looking plant.”
