The beginning!

Hello to All!
This is my very first attempt at this sort of thing, so have patience with me. It's only going to get better!
I feel I have so much I want to say, hopefully of interest to others. So let's get started.

The big news item of the day, outside of the government in shambles, is the death of Amy Whitehouse.  I am very sorry that another young, beautiful person with a promising future should have such a wasted life.  She had such a history of the kind of life that included drugs, alcohol, and general trashy living.
One is tempted to sak "what could we have done to help her?"  But, her family was relentless in trying to get to her.  And now what do they have?  A lot of hurt feelings and memories.
So many, many times, folks who feel it necessary to end their lives simply don't have a clue, or don't care, what it does to those left behind to endure the grief.
We who are left behind can only speculate the outcome for people like Amy, but what the important thing really is, is how she is meeting her God.  God is the only being who knows what was in her mind, indeed in her life.  We trust in God, and depend on His mercy.
May she rest in peace.
