Guest guest Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 Hello, I have to agree with everyone on making this a little more personalized. It is hard enough to ask for help when you feel you have lost all dignity. And I never meant for anyone to reach out and step up to the plate here. I had planned on calling the salvation army and schools etc for this. I have been reading emails everyday. I wanted to send out a personal thank you for all your prayers and your kindness. I just don't know how to thank someone for this. I have cried reading all your emails to help. I just didn't know how to say thank you to something like this. It takes a bit of the load off my shoulders. Actually it take a lot off my shoulders. It was just unexpected. I wish I could give you all a big hug. I know I could use one. I am not asking for anything for myself. I am extremely thrilled that my daughters will have gifts at Christmas and that Aliyah will get a gift for her birthday. I am happy with the small gifts people sent in their COL letters. Sweta just sent me an Amma book in which put a smile on my face. I love getting Amma Books! I remember one time I think it was Ellen had sent me kisses blessed by Amma, this was a few years ago, but I held them so sacred, I couldn't believe I had them in my own hands. It mean so much, even more than the ones I have gotten myself from her now. I appreciated them so much more than anything. It was like seeing Amma herself to me that time. Things like that touch me deeply and are never forgotten. I don't believe that Christmas is about presents and I teach my children this as well. Although Hannah my younger one doesn't quite get it yet, Aliyah was born 20 years old out of the womb. She is so excited that she is going to get something for her birthday. Infact her exact words were. I don't care what I get, as long as I get one thing. I smiled at her and gave her a big hug. She has always been grown up. I know I am rambling about this and that, but I hope it shows some of the large gratitude that I feel in my heart. And if you can't feel it, then I know that Amma knows my heart is most sincere. You guys have no idea how much your helping me out, how much it means to my family, to me and to my girls. Thank you for all your money contributions. They have helped out immensely. And thank you most of all for your prayers. They are most needed in this family's life right now. Especally me. Robin PS All my personal information will be emailed to Nierika for those of you who are helping. Thank you everyone. Please keep praying for me and my family.
