*** We also have included a forum called 'A SHELTERING PLACE' - for Grief and Loss. ***
A forum for anyone who needs a safe place to cry. A place to just let pent-up emotions out, and to find friends who will listen, support, and just sit with you while you work thru the grief of losing someone you love. You will find
A SHELTERING PLACE' at The CFIDS/ME & FMS CHATTER BOX Community Today! Grief is something that should not isolate
you from new friends who know and fully understand that particular sorrow.
Who can divide, share, and lighten it's weighty burden upon your life.

MY DIGGS


I am a writer of poetry (mostly), and the occasional story short. I also enjoy the inet, and my writing & support communities. My writing community is called Writer's Block. I hope you'll come visit here:

imageimageimage


I also hope you'll click on The WordSmith Link to visit us at our sister web site.

Everyone is welcome at Writer's Block! However, we are a G-Rated Community, so please keep that in mind when posting. And, we have a copyright ordinance in place. We also ask that whatever works you plan to place in the writing forums at Writer's Block, not be placed in other ezboard/yuku writing forums. In this way, all the writing forums stay unique and interesting to readers. It's not fun to go to several writing communities and read the very same things you just read at three or four other places. So, spread your gifts around and bless everybody! If you're a writer please feel free to post your one of a kind works in any of our listed writing forums. And, if you'd like your things formatted with special graphics/pictures/music, you may submit your material for our editors to work them up and post them for you by clicking on the EXPRESSIONS email click link that you'll find on every page there.

Then, if you or someone you love is trying to deal with chronic daily illness and pain...or, perhaps you may be dealing with grief from the loss of someone special to you, please feel free to jump on into the CFIDS/ME, FMS & Related Illness Chatter Box Community listed on the side bar.

We deal daily with the chronic illnesses of: ME/CFIDS,FMS,CMPD, Addison's Disorder, MS, Chronic Migraine Syndrome and other Related Chronic Pain & Illness Disorders. It's a friendly, helpful, coping place where you'll meet others who understand what you and or a loved one with these disorders is going through. Be sure to join in anytime. We are all about friendship and helping one another thru the rough spots.

We are new at Yuku, and want to meet and make new friends! So everyone's invited.

Seasons Holidays Special Thoughts from linda


A very gifted young song writer/performer who wrote these lyrics
and performed this song when he was 12 years old.
He is an 18 year old man of Irish/Somalian
decent who hopefully, is now still singing for the sake of the world
and lasting peace among men.
A timely song for an unsettled world...
(thanx Rose)

Here are the Lyrics......

In my dream children sing a song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue and fields are green and laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don't understand.
When so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand.
Tell me why?

Everyday I ask myself what will I have to do to be a man?
Do I have to stand and fight to prove to everybody who I am?
Is that what my life is for to waste in a world full of war?

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don't understand.
When so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand.
Tell me why?

(children) tell me why? (declan) tell me why?
(children) tell me why? (declan) tell me why?
(together) just tell me why, why, why?

Tell me why (why) does it have to be like this?
Tell me why (why) is there something I have missed?
Tell me why (why) cos I don't understand.
When so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand.

Tell me why (why,why,does the tiger run)
Tell me why (why why do we shoot the gun)
Tell me why (why,why do we never learn)
Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn?

(why,why do we say we care)
Tell me why (why,why do we stand and stare)
Tell me why (why,why do the dolphins cry)
Can some one tell us why we let the ocean die ?

(why,why if we're all the same)
tell me why (why,why do we pass the blame)
tell me why (why,why does it never end)
can some one tell us why we cannot just be friends?



Oh, Holy Night

Stuff About Me

image

I had an ez support board for five years, for ppl with CFIDS, FMS, CMPD, and other autoimmune disorders, called SafetyNet. In March of 06' I closed that community and came to Yuku to start a new one that we call the CFIDS/FMS & RELATED CHRONIC ILLNESS CHATTERBOX - or just The Chatterbox for short. It is a friendship and support group for anyone who may suffer chronic pain and illness. We are a small yet very close knit group and we love meeting and making new friends. So please come and join us!
You can be the someone who is ill or just know someone you care about who is, or possibly you care for someone who needs special care due to chronic illness. Regardless of who you happen to be, we'd love to have you visit with us anytime.

In my duration at ezboard, I was also asked to be the admin of a grief and loss support board called 'Grief and Loss NZ'. founded by a lovely lady named saffy. I and a friend attended Hospice training years ago and with the help of my Dr. started up the local Hospice where we live, so taking over another friend's grief & loss board came easily. We have a grief and loss forum at The CFIDS/FMS Chatterbox for anyone who may need a bit of help "getting through a period of sorrow". Whether you've lost a loved one to death, or a beloved pet, or maybe you are suffering from an irrevocable loss of relationship through divorce or misunderstanding, whatever it may be...just come and vent and cry if need be. Someone will be there to "listen".

I have met wonderful people in my duration at ezboard, and here at Yuku. Some have become dear and valued friends. Internet friends can oftentimes turn out to be the absolute best friends in life you'll ever have! I know that has been my experience.

ABOUT ME:

I'm sixty years old (AAAAUUUUGGGGHHHHH!!!!) as of April this year 09' and still trying to wrap my head around that one! Ha! OY!!! And, have been married to the same man for going on 41 years now. OOFDAH!!
Have two grown sons. No grandchildren...but we have five cats and three dogs (as you can see), that are loved to bits and spoiled miserably. They're all angels though!

I am a writer with a few pieces published here and there, and who keeps procrastinating terribly on 'the book' for which a contract has been signed, as of the fall of this last year. It is primarily a poetry book with a few short stories and life experiences included.

I have a web site for novice and experienced writers to submit their material to called 'The WordSmith'. We have writers who are published with the likes of the 'Chicken Soup For The Soul' series of books and a few others. And I have a writing community here at Yuku called 'Writer's Block'. It was named after a favorite web place I used to haunt when I was very new to the www years ago. It broke my heart when the couple that owned it unplugged it because they couldn't keep up. I missed it terribly and decided to start a similar namesake place this many years later. The Writer's Block name indicates writers in the neighborhood, on the same block...just like your next door neighbors where you live. A common place to write and read good material.

image

I enjoy the friends I've made on message boards through these many years, and sharing bits of life with them. I hope you'll choose to be a friend too.
Come on over to Writer's Block when you can, and if you are a writer or would like to become one, post your masterpieces anytime. And if you'd like your special piece formatted with music, graphics etc...you may use the 'EXPRESSIONS' e-mail click link on any page there or the one here in my profile, to submit it to our editor/s for that purpose. Whatever can not be added here by way of special formatting, will be published at The WordSmith with a link to it provided for you.

I enjoy writing, creating, crafts (if ever I find time), socializing, intellectualizing (hmmm...that takes about a minute!) upon life's bigger truths ... my family, my furry family, friends, and a close relationship with my maker. I love doing computer graphics (although I'm not great at it) and learning new things. I taught myself html through the years and can do simple and basic things with it. CSS has been a challenge however!! I almost think I've missed the boat on that one, but still trying!! HTML hasn't been nearly as difficult to grasp for me. I'm an old dog still trying to learn new tricks. And every once in awhile I may get that accomplished. I'm anxious to meet new friends. Thanx for stopping by today.
