[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 675367, member: 19522"] Sending prayers your way QS, for lifted spirits and Gods grace to be with you. Our d cs are on a journey to find their meaning and themselves. It is not the path that we would have them on, it is their choice. We can choose to worry and lament and mourn, or breathe in and out, faithfully give them over to the Lord. He can work miracles. Our sons are born to us from Him, a gift. They are essentially loaned to us, then we are to give them back, to go out on their own journey. They have amazing power and strength. It is my hope for my son and yours, and all the sons out there, that they will discover their meaning. Here is a powerful chant, from my hubs culture, sharing a story of weaving, fine delicate mats. In essence, our d cs are out their, [I]weaving their story[/I]. [MEDIA=youtube]60Wkk0CLBdY[/MEDIA] They have youth and vitality, and are capable of changing their paths, [I]the way they weave their story[/I]. I want to focus on this, QS, not what my two are doing now, but on the endless possibilities of what they can achieve..... The chant also speaks of strong winds and rains... Our d cs are going through troubled times, but it does NOT mean they will be this way forever...... One of my favorite people, a teacher, a kumu hula, was enmeshed with drug use, meth, in his youth. He was able to break free, QS, and now shares his talent worldwide. I share this with you, the rhythm of the chant, the young men performing, their strength, the hours of work it takes to move with such precision and grace. Your son is young, QS, he has much to weave into his story. HOPE, QS, there is always HOPE. With the pounding of the kala'au sticks, there within lies my heartbeat to you and yours, in sincere wishes for feelings of hope and rejuvenation to envelope you. For you and I, and others here on CD, are on a difficult journey. But, we have much life in us QS, we have much to live for, and so do our d cs........ The best thing we can do for them, and ourselves, is be a [I]shining example in living our lives to the fullest, living our meaning. [/I] This way, we are not only lighting candles in the window. We ARE the candle light. From my heart, my pu'uwai to yours Nui ke Aloha leafy [/QUOTE]
