Sunday 8/22/10 - "DESPERATE" - Sunday 160



SUNDAY 160




"DESPERATE"


She was like the air in spring, perfection under roses, gorgeous.

I knew the desperation this beauty hid.

We had spoken when she called the suicide hot line.

...And she did make the call. There are so many of us these days, it seems.

God smiled on her to have you answer that phone.

Love.

Amen. My heart cries out for those so desperate that they dress up, put on make-up and pretend so readily that all is well... yet inside inside the black hole envelopes them.

Appearances certainly can be deceiving. We owe it to eachother to try to look a little deeper and listen with compassionate ears.

A very powerful message PG!

You never know the story behind the cover until you have a chance to read a few pages. Great 160. Thanks for playing.

So sad. Pretending to be happy and then about ready to crash.
