[QUOTE="200Meters, post: 755689, member: 23727"] I echo what JayPee said: A Catholic friend of mine told me once that sometimes when we look at the world, it is like looking at beautiful tapestry - from underneath. We don't see the beautiful design, we just see a confused, criss-crossed jangle of threads without rhyme or reason. But G-d has a different perspective. He is the Weaver and He sees the beautiful pattern. Hard as it can be sometimes, we just have to hope and believe that there is a beautiful pattern and that Weaver knows what He is doing. It makes perfect sense. It is also heart-rending. We have photos of Oldest (see the most recent post on my thread) and Youngest and remember what sweet kids they were. The bad does not cancel the good. We can remember the good times, I think, without putting ourselves through abuse as we keep trying to "find" that person inside him. We won't put ourselves through abuse because we will stop trying to find that person inside him. We will wait for that person to find himself, to come to us of his own accord, or at least to come far enough and we will then go to meet him. Does [I]this[/I] make sense? [/QUOTE]
