Right now I am in a very dark hole, quite depressed, and can't find my way out. As an atheist, I don't know what to do...but I appreciate reading your feelings. Thanks again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046694318660841470.post-84257158553191558482012-01-18T12:46:06.463-08:002012-01-18T12:46:06.463-08:00I have used Claire's approach lots but I feel ...I have used Claire's approach lots but I feel like it somehow lacks the depth and intensity of my thoughts for the person. On the other hand, perhaps to a person who DOES pray, any of my thoughts would lack depth and intensity relative to prayer.<br /><br />Wish there were something that more accurately reflected just how deeply my thoughts go ("I'm sending positive vibes", "I'm thinking of you", "You're in my thoughts", etc etc seem to fall short). In the end, perhaps reaching out to let the person know you are there for them through words or through actions is the most important thing.Heather Boydhttp://theheatherreport.blogspot.com/search/label/saying%20nonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3046694318660841470.post-39212822661242972762011-05-30T06:18:32.106-07:002011-05-30T06:18:32.106-07:00Claire- thank you.

Maybe by keeping it in my thoughts I'll remember to volunteer or donate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
