That is exactly what a doctor said to me Dianne,'Do you have a need to rescue?' Only i didn't have your courage to confront him .

Like you Lynnie, i have also attempted suicide,
i was about 34. I think it is a dark family secret. None of my relatives have ever mentioned it - to me. Maybe they thought it was/is, a kindness to say nothing. i don't know. Maybe it's something i'm suppose to be ashamed of. i dont know.

You had been taught Lynnie that 'all are born sinners', were you also taught 'and all continue to sin'?

It's a self fulling prophesy eh. I was born bad, and will continue to do bad things.

Where's the hope, the excitment,
where's the wonder that makes life good ?

I wonder if our world would be different if we were taught....
Everyone is made of star dust and born holy but fragile' "And everyone will remain fragile"

thanks for replying dianne and lynnie
