Dear Casey,

We have not met as I am fairly new here, but I just want to let you know that you will be in my prayers.  Because you are not some robot behind a keyboard but appear to be what they call a human being, you are as good as a sibling in my eyes and in my heart.

I also just want to say that I feel like all you are going through is nothing less than spiritual.  Sometimes society teaches us to think of God as a man in the sky who "calls the shots" and "watches things happen".  Then when it comes to our dark times, the idea of a God like that only seems to make "him" seem like a truly spiteful confusing being, or a hunky dory fairy tale.

But the people who make it past those illusions realize that "God", the Creator of All, the Source of the Universe, is not making or watching us lose and hurt and cry.  This source is in all things.. God "is" in the lost loved one, God "is" the pain in our hearts, God "is" the tears rolling down our face.  We do not experience things because of or in spite of God.. God experiences things through *us*.

Sorry, I'm probably rambling and I don't want to "stir the pot" for you spiritually if that's not what you want to hear right now.. the most important thing is just to know I send sweetest thoughts and prayers your way.
