WHAT I HAVE LEARNED IN ONE YEAR AFTER THE DEATH OF A LOVED ONE.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED IN ONE YEAR AFTER THE DEATH OF A LOVED ONE.

Here is the challenge: Do not use your suffering as a time to discover if you believe in God, but focus instead on discovering what you believe about GOD.  In times of suffering, God does not change, but what you believe about Him, what you understand about Him, may.

You will likely have questions to which you will never receive answers. It is human nature to want all the pieces to fit, to want to make sense of things but there are times when that will not happen.

"I was real angry because I couldn't get answers," I said at one time or another about the passing of my wife Joyce. "I now realize that there really is no logical reason why Joyce had to suffer and leave for heaven as my wife had really suffered. So I've come to realize that I'll never get an answer to that question down here on this world." 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P81rb32T0fA

As a human living on this side of death, you will not receive answers that truly satisfy you. The only satisfaction will come when you accept JESUS CHRIST as your Lord and Saviour of your life and then live each day seeking to walk in His Spirit.

Joyce had appeared to be doing well when, unexpectedly, she had passed and I found her so. I not did go through one period in my life ever, where I was so upset that I probably had my faith shaken to the deepest that it has ever been shaken. I said, 'FATHER GOD in heaven, it is not supposed to happen like this!' Though everyone dies in time one way or another… Amen.

IN MEMORIAM; JOYCE EVELYN SPENCE


SPENCE, Joyce Evelyn
July 4, 1956 – May 27, 2014
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G433DMhm_aQ 
WHAT’S A SOULMATE? WELL FOR ME, JOYCE…
A SOULMATE, it's like a best friend, but more.
It's the one person in the world that knows
you better than anyone else. It's someone
who makes you a better person. Actually they
don't make you a better person... you do that
yourself because they inspire you. A
soulmate is someone who you carry with you
forever. It's the one person who knew you
and accepted you, and believed in you and
you in them, before anyone else did or when
no one else would. And no matter what
happens, you'll always Love them.
Missed by me, her reciprocal SOULMATE
and Husband Richard & Family.
An In Memoriam for Joyce will be in the,
Calgary Herald today Wednesday May 27th,

JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN

JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN, published in 1939. Johnny Got His Gun was fiction inspired by a gruesome true story about a Black Canadian soldier from WW I Ethelbert “Curley” Christian. JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN by Trumbo Dalton; first published by J. B. Lipppincott Co. in 1939. The novel borrows its title from the rallying call “Johnny get your gun” encouraging young American men to enlist in the military at the turn of the 19th century. The basis for the 1940 NBC Radio series “Arch Oboler's Plays”adaptation:

There are many things people believe or do in Canada that I do not at times agree with but I served in the R.C.A.F. not because I was hoping for a War and that I wanted my name scratched onto marble somewhere.
I served so that everyone has the right to do the many things that people believe or do in Canada that I do not at times agree with and is legal.

HUGE SETBACK CALGARY AID WORKER SPEAKING ABOUT 2ND NEPAL EARTH QUAKE:

HUGE SETBACK CALGARY AID WORKER SPEAKING ABOUT 2ND NEPAL EARTH QUAKE:
Bruce Piercey (left) speaks with other Samaritan’s Purse staffers in Kathmandu, Nepal, before the country was hit by a second earthquake on May 12, 2015.
Calgarian Bruce Piercey thought it was just another aftershock.
But when he saw the faces of the children and mothers who surrounded him, and heard their screams and cries, he realized it was much more.
A fresh 7.3-magnitude earthquake struck a remote mountainous region of Nepal early Tuesday afternoon, killing dozens of people, triggering landslides, and collapsing buildings weakened by last month’s massive 7.8-magnitude quake that killed thousands.
Piercey, Samaritan’s Purse Canada Asia Projects Director, was at the Samaritan’s Purse patient care centre in Katmandu when the second earthquake struck.
“I will never forgot the looks of fear on the mother and children today. I’ll remember that as long as I live,” Piercey said from Kathmandu on Tuesday.
The centre was busy with mothers and their children from remote regions of Nepal seeking medical treatment, and Piercey was visiting to see how victims were recovering since the April 25 quake.
Piercey and his Samaritan Purse colleagues had just received a tour of the earthquake-resistant building, and were sitting down, sipping water, and discussing how the building had fared in the first quake when the ground began to shake around 1 p.m. local time Tuesday afternoon.
“The couch I was on started rocking back and forth quite violently,” Piercey said.
For more than a minute, the building swayed as people screamed and cried.
“It’s really something when the earth shakes like that. It’s so disorienting,” Piercey said.
Piercey described the second quake as a fresh trauma for thousands of Nepalese trying to recover from April’s disaster.
“It’s a huge setback. People were just starting to get back to normal,” said Piercey, who arrived in Nepal two days after the first earthquake.
“It means more work. The affected area has increased…The number of people who need supplies has increased.”
The building Piercey was in is located approximately 80 to 90 kilometres from the epicentre of Tuesday’s earthquake, and a Samaritan’s Purse team was stationed about 10 kilometres from the second quake’s epicentre, Piercey said.
“They’re stuck out there tonight. They’re staying put because landslides have blocked the road,” he said.
Piercey said Samaritan’s Purse will increase the number of staff they have on the ground in Nepal as the country attempts to recover from this second disaster.
“People were just starting to rebuild their lives,” he said.

THE GRUNAU KITTIES

THE GRUNAU KITTIES
Sorry for the jerky photos but I am still a novice Photographer with a learning curve. They are so fast, hence the blurs and as I was coming to the conclusion that maybe if I glue their paws down? Sadly this would be very sick, plus also very mean and I would be unloved by the Kitties. Not to mention my Room Mate and the Grunau carpet replacement would cost much!
So if I may please, pick Slideshow then Allow to enlarge to Full Screen, Go to Bottom of Page and choose (when Icon Opens), then click Play.
The Grunau Kitties start with Bella Grunau, enjoy! :)

THE BOTTLE INCIDENT!

THE BOTTLE INCIDENT!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su_NI9PQ1XQ
I remember my first daughter. It was 3 am and after poking myself with safety pins (what is so safe about them?), I had to also provide the bottle as it was this Dad's turn. Well I made the bottle, put it into a pot of water to heat up. My eldest daughter and I then laid down on the couch, with her snugly on Daddy's chest. We both fell back asleep, water boiled, boiled away, pot on stove became red hot, nipple on bottle melted off, milk boiled away and fire alarm went off! It was then I opened my eyes to an enraged wife bent over me in much, much, anger! Lucky for me I was allowed to continue lessons for my turn of 3 am child care... My advice boys is yes, Breast feeding is good, thank GOD for microwaves and Diapers that you not have
to, PIN AND RINSE... ;) By Sir Richard....

Vladimir Putin Discovers His Inner Rasputin

Vladimir Putin Discovers 
His Inner Rasputin
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin (rhymes with Rasputin) has discovered how to play Tsar  lurk in the shadows and let some poor slob catch the blame.
His choice scapegoat to succeed him turned out to be big surprise! His favorite ankle-biter, one Dmitry Medvedev, looking for all the world like it was his turn to head the Junior Chamber of Commerce.
No sooner had Putin elevated Medvedev, the figurehead “Chairman” of the Kremlin owned-and-operated gas works, than the putative “President” reached right around and returned the favor, signifying Putin would be his “Prime Minister.”
Of course, those musical chair-hops are subject to the March 2008 “Elections.” The Russian Constitution” prohibits Putin from serving more than two consecutive hitches. Without all those quotation marks it’s one big Potemkin village in Russia anymore.
The skids are now greased for Putin to ascend to marionette-in-chief, pulling the strings that make everyone in Russia who matters a vanishing minority tear a tendon doing the Cossack squat-and-kick dance.
You can bet the name Rasputin is not unknown to Putin. He couldn’t possibly have spent all those years in the KGB apparatus without having picked up a little Russian history. Trouble is a little history can be a dangerous thing.
During the Romanov dynasty Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin, 1869-1916, was convinced, as is Putin in post-Cold War Russia that he was onto one sweet deal. The Mad Monk from Siberia had the ear of Tsarina Alexandra, who in turn had Tsar Nicholas II by his.
Even as Rasputin whispered idiocies to the Tsar’s wife, who then hen-pecked hubby into promulgating them, so Putin will be able to instruct what may appear to be his Tsarina stand-in, namely President-to-be Medvedev.
Poor Medvedev, though. His Presidency is only a stand-in internship. The authentic jumping jacks on the end of Putin’s strings are the members of his privately held United Russia Party (URP), which is an acronym as well as a deserved eructation.
By controlling the election of the URPers in the Russian “Parliament” there they go again, those quotation marks Putin controls the entire government, figureheads, borscht-heads, Medvedev-heads, the whole Kremlin-load of burglars. The real Tsarina is the URP.
A President Medvedev will be nothing more than Putin’s patsy who has the honor of taking all the heat for what Rasputin Putin cooks up for the URP to dish out on the table for the Russian people to like it or lump it.
It’s a nifty arrangement for Putin. He doesn’t have to put up with the caponized Russian newsies and their pesky cameras, and it gives him more free time to slip out of dreadful Moscow, whip off his shirt and grab some politically correct serious rays while pretend-fishing.
The game worked for Rasputin until it stopped working for Rasputin. Whatever personal privileges the Tsarina allowed him in her palace, they could not have made up in advance for the unpleasant way he departed the field of play. One rumor has it that he disagreed with something he was slipped in his favorite cake. Other versions include non-stop stabbing, shooting, beating, gouging, booting and, to top it off, tossing Rasputin into an icy river. All agree, however, he didn’t go easily when he went.
The point for Putin is: Rasputin certainly wasn’t loved to death, not even universally admired to pieces.
While Putin may not wind up in exactly the same manner, the Rasputin game will work for him only until it stops working for him. And the reason Rasputin’s game stopped working for him was that other denizens of the ruling crowd agreed among themselves there would be more to go around if there were one fewer.
The Bolsheviks settled that problem for them most unpleasantly at Ekaterinburg and back in the palaces, leaving no rulers to betray and no spoils to split.
Russia today is full of wealth just ripe for the plucking, an inviting pie for all the other crooks to insist upon its being divided up among one crook fewer.
As accomplished a schemer as Putin may think himself to be, the reality is he’s not nearly the master Rasputin that Rasputin was. The KGB, which bred and raised Putin, was if nothing else a conglomerate of klutzes and its residue still is.
Putin and Rasputin share the same fatal flaw: They both based their power on the arrogant presumption they could do without the Russian people. Rasputin totally ignored them. Putin effectively disfranchised them.
When Putin’s Rasputin game is up, Putin had better watch his diet. Poisoning by whatever name is such a grand, old Muscovite tradition.
Here's the transcript of the joke told by Vladimir Putin in Russian. Please, see the English translation below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbinNj5cZSg
Russian transcript:
Челове́к пришёл на Лубя́нку и говори́т:
– Я шпио́н, хочу́ сда́ться.

Ему́ говоря́т:
– А Вы, чей шпио́н?

Говори́т:
– Америка́нский.
– Ну, тогда́ в пя́тую ко́мнату.

Он пошёл в пя́тую ко́мнату:
– Я америка́нский шпио́н, хочу́ сда́ться.
– А у Вас ору́жие есть?
– Есть.
– В седьму́ю, пожа́луйста.

Он в седьму́ю:
– Я шпио́н, хочу́ сда́ться, у меня́ есть ору́жие.
– В деся́тую.

Ну, в деся́тую:
– Я шпио́н, хочу́ сда́ться, у меня́ есть ору́жие.
– А сре́дства свя́зи есть?
– Есть.
– В двацатую ко́мнату.

Пришёл:
– Я шпио́н, у меня́ есть ору́жие, сре́дства свя́зи, я хочу́ сда́ться.

Его́ спра́шивают:
– А зада́ние то у Вас есть?
– Есть.
– Ну, иди́те и исполня́йте. Не меша́йте лю́дям рабо́тать!
English Translation:
A man comes to Lubyanka (KGB headquarters) and says:
- I am a spy, I want to surrender.

He is asked:
- Whose spy are you?

He says:
- I am an American spy.
- Well, then, you need to go to room #5.

He goes to the room #5:
- I am an American spy, I want to surrender.
- Do you have weapons?
- Yes, I do.
- Please go to room #7.

He goes to the room #7:
- I'm a spy, I want to surrender, I have weapons.
- Please go to room #10.

He goes to the room #10:
- I'm a spy, I want to surrender, I have weapons.
- Do yo have communications equipment?
- Yes, I do.
- Please go to room #20.

He arrives to the room #20:
- I'm a spy, I have weapons and communications equipment, and I want to surrender.

He is asked:
- Do you have a mission?
- Yes, I do.
- Well, then go and execute your mission. Stop distracting people from their work!

UNDERSTANDING DOES NOT EQUAL HEALING

UNDERSTANDING DOES NOT EQUAL HEALING
Carolina Chocolate Drops - "Leaving Eden" =  
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3XsHMOEQGc 
Understanding does not equal healing. Clarity does not equal restoration. Many men understand their wounds and can talk about them with great clarity. They know what happened, what life was like, once upon a time.

Yet, they remain unfinished men, haunted by the memories and still crippled by their wounds. The horrors remain, the fears remain, the lack of wholeness remains. By the way guys, it doesn’t take as an example, a major assault like DEATH OF A Loved One or Battlefield Fatigue and other forms of PTSD to create a broken heart.

Many men assume they haven’t any real brokenness within them because they haven’t endured the horrors they read about in the paper or watched on TV. Depending on the age or circumstances, it can be an embarrassing moment like stuttering in front of the class, or a harsh word from your caregiver, or as in my case my Daughter was a parental abduction 26 years ago in 1989 and my Good Wife’s Passing May 27th, 2014.

The Giddens Sisters – “That I Should Know Your Face”
https://www.rdio.com/i/Rl5Q-owrUSPDGA/?play=1

Remember, that the human heart was designed to grow up in a world of Love and Security, a world where each of us are known and prized each and every day. A world very, very different from the world anyone actually grows up in, living now so far from what was once our Eden. The heart is a tender thing and easily broken, especially when we are young.

My religious belief tells me that GOD comes to heal the human heart but at times how that is done may be a deep mystery but I believe that it works something like this:

GOD will often arrange for some person to be His eyes and ears to guide you. Or He may make an event for you to feel, just as we did when we were young boys. When our hearts were unbroken and feeling again, what we felt then.

Perhaps as suddenly a memory surfaces, we have an opportunity not to push it away, or run to the refrigerator, or get angry at someone, however it is that we typically handle these emotions. Rather, we invite our belief system (or in my case GOD the Father, Jesus Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit), to come to that broken place within us. For we then can ask, that He use His Holy Resources, to find the now orphaned boy within us and embrace him. We ask that He come and heal our broken hearts, to rescue this boy within and bring him home.
