littlesister Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Ah, yes. Joy and terror. Well said! We've all been there, but that doesn't make it any easier! The terror won't last. The joy will. Trust it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlesister Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Little Sisters of the Poor. L-o-n-g time ago. The terror evaporated in a day or two. The joy has lasted for decades. God bless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosieranna Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Good luck. I know you're doing what you're supposed to do, but it will be a lot less joyful on the phorum without you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been a real help since I don't have many close friends, and no Catholic ones, and my family isn't Catholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Therese Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 I finally told my dad that I'm going to be leaving. It was very difficult. He doesn't understand it all I'm sure. I had to break it into two-yesterday I told him that I would be leaving and today I told him when. A quote from the Gospels come to mind. It was when Jesus called a young man who said, let me go and bury my father, and Jesus said "Let the dead bury the dead.". That's a hard saying.
