Well, this forum has more than a enough love to go around. So I thought I would start one for, Nita. I think she does important work being in the occupational therapist field and working with the elderly. She has a great deal of empathy. She provides a lot of good advice for those in need. I could go on but I want to leave room for others.
Nita! She is so thoughtful and loving and I don't think there's a mean bone in her body. If the world was more like Nita, what a beautiful place it would be. Nita calms me down and makes me feel good.

Thanks guys, appreciate it. The last month has been hard w/the family situations I mentionned recently. Sat was a hard day as I thought about those things and just felt pure spiritual/emotional pain because of them.
Then (to be edited out in a couple days) something else happened that was the final thing, not w/my family but an other area of life. Something that should hurt but doesn't hurt like I thought it would. I'll just say I was up all night and prayed a lot for strength, "please give me strength, please give me strength". Yet even w/this, I could see evidence of Heavenly Father watching out for me and being aware of me. A few times I did have tears today, but I was able to work. And I did my calling today. I had angels all around me, angel Zealia to email. I had my friend of years who I could call this morning before I went to work, to tell her to please pray for me today. I had an angel singing massage therapist that gave me a mini massage on my back and head today, and she sang part of the Lord is My Shepherd. As one of my coworkers told me today, someday we'll thank the Lord for our trials. Those are the things that make our hearts stronger. Anyway, it's all right, all is good.
Nita, I think you're awesome too. YOu have this sense of peaceful joy about you. I suppose it might have something to do with the Spirit. :) Don't let the world getchya down, cuz you've got something it'll never have!!

Nita is a kind soul who sometimes makes me ashamed for being in her presence with my abrasive on-line persona. I often read her screen name as Need-a-Smile, and it forces me to wonder if I need to smile more.
So...

I think Nita was contemplating jumping out of an airplane with a parachute or maybe it was bungee jumping to have more empathy for her patients' fear of falling. That is a lot more than putting herself in their shoes!
Thanks Polly, I'm trying to get it to work for me! That is so kind of you, I got to "upload avatar" but it is saying it only accepts certain type of pictures (ie JPEG or w/other certain endings). Anyway, I'll play w/it a little while!
I tried, I'm doing something wrong I'm sure. Oh well, will try again later. Thanks again!! So for a little while, think of me having fun on the Bountiful Tire Swing!! :)
Nita, if you want I can try to upload one of those pictures as an avatar for you. It may have to wait till tonight, of course. Just tell me which one you want. I have ultimate control over all avatars. Buwhahahaha!

Wow, thanks. If you want to try that would be great. The one I like best is the sun smiley (sorry Poncho- it is just more "me"). But no worries. I was able to download the sun one to my desktop as a screen picture thing, but the avatar thing just didn't work out.
Smaug: thanks but you haven't seen me at work, I definitely get frustrated w/things at times.

Wow! Arbilad, thank you so much!! I recently saw a quote that said just because it rains today, it doesn't mean there won't be sunshine tomorrow. In part, that is why I liked this avatar so much. Thanks again! I really appreciate this, and thanks again to Polly Anna for finding it!
Nita! Love the avatar! You're so awesome!! the world needs more Nitas!!!

PS> I put a character named "Nita" in my book last night... of course she was passed out on the kitchen floor and didn't have much to say when the main character dumped water on her head, but she served her purpose...

How funny! That sounds lots better than something my sisters once did to me when I was in about 7th grade: I had these beige cordoruy pants, they had a picture of a deer on the back pocket. My sisters made fun of those pants, calling them, "deer butt pants". Well one day, sa they laughed, they poured milk into that back pocket, I guess for the deer?
