I got better sleep last night as well which I was in desperate need of. Possibly some of your stardust floated across the sky and landed on my sleep needed lids. ;) Hope you have a blessed day missy

This is Shnookie. What a profound statement. I come from a heritage of people who beat the storms and I have overcome a number of storms in my own life Hugs 🤗 S

My father and Aunt were Jewish Holocaust survivors and my grandparents luckily survived as well. I think of them, when I am going thru a challenging time and say to myself if they could get thru hell on earth, then I’ll get thru the tough time as well.

I remember reading on here about your family. Something so horrible that they went through was with such determination and strength and they are amazing I can only just imagine what it was like to endure. I would like to know more about it. I know Dolphin has read some books on the Holocaust I’ll ask her favorites ... do you have any reading favs?

Shnookie in reply to Starrlight

It is admirable that U want to expand your knowledge about the Holocaust. There is a psychiatrist named

Victor Frankel a Holocaust survivor

who writes his perspective about surviving and facing the future.

Eli Wiesel one book - Night ;

Primo Levi - Italian Jewish survivor

Check Out on Google

If I think of any more. I’ll post them

I love your photograph. (Is it a photo or a painting? I'm not sure.) I lose myself, find a moment of serenity watching the moon.

I tried for a bit to find the origin of your quote to read further, but Google says no one is sure of the original source.

It's very moving. 🦜

Hi! The moon pic is a photo. And I got the quote from a large tin poster a friend gave me.

It’s so good to read you. That’s so nice. Do you have a spot where you can see the moon from inside your home or do you go outside to watch the moon? Moon watching... I want to do that. 🌚 ✨

Hi you! How are you?

Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight

Hi back! Ow! We've got high winds and a downpour Noah would envy. So everything hurts. Some forum friends advised me to get a dehumidifier to help the barometer - pain thing, but nope. Didn't do it yet.

I've been busy and feeling okay other than the body pain. The two seem to often go hand-in-hand. I'm having fun while "things hurt so I'd better sit things out", watching DVDs.

I'm sorry to hear you're having a bad time today... but I love that you are so great at reminding yourself (and us) what works to get you through it. That's often hard for me to do with my memory going wonky when I'm hurting.

in reply to Nothing_but_books

Hey NBP, where in the U.S. are you? I ask because we are having a downpour and severe thunderstorms, even a tornado warning. I live close to a U.S. border crossing.

Oh Auntie Em, there's no place like home ~(just don't want a twister 🙏🏻)

Oh, nice. Very nice image. No twisters, thank you very much.

I am in fact worried about downed tree limbs, broken windows, and power outages.

Location: Northeast U.S.

in reply to Nothing_but_books

Well stay safe my friend. I am in South-Western Ontario. It is teaming down rain and I hear thunder in the distance. Everything is put away, outside. Now I will just watch the Light show. ⚡️💨🌧

Not too far... Thunder is shaking the windows here. I'm worried about my basement flooding again.

Baby doesn't like when the thunder is right overhead. 🦜

I’m hurting too in my joints. I need to exercise. It’s been a long time and I’m really paying for it. Anxiety gets really bad without it too. We are not getting rain here until tomorrow.

Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight

The storm must be a huge one, snowdaze said she's getting hit too.

It's hard to push yourself to exercise with all that's going on now.

I haven't been able to come up with anything I'm still able to do that helps my anxiety. Chair stretches do nothing. I wonder if you get exercise points for touch typing?

I love this quote. It gives me strength whenever I read it. I take a pic of all the quotes I come across that give me strength. When life gets too much I go thru my mobile gallery and re- read to make me stronger. It works each time. We need a reminder once in a while to heal and become stronger. Thanks for sharing Starlight ❤
