Dear Friends old and new,
  i know i've been away awhile and i've missed a bit of you a whole bunch and a bunch of you a bit - and hopefully you know who you are  ^_^
and as for everyone else, i can't wait to get to know you  ^_^
and wow, i am flattered!  i can't believe how many people wanted to be my friend after all this  ^_^
i do love you dearly, but fear it will be some time before i can get through all of the emails (400 in my care2 account alone) so if you are waiting on a response please bare with me  ^_^   i suppose i'll handle it like a whale - start at the tail and take small bites.  i am greatfull for every single email and will respond to them all!
i just can't thank y'all enough for your kindness and am awaiting the day when i am able to pay it forward  ^_^
and for the few who have seen this as an opportunity to show me more ugliness and mean spirited behavior - i will continue to ignore and delete your emails (i won't even read them anymore so you are wasting your time) and you are not preventing me from using this or any other network i choose to be a part of!  there are more NICE people in the world and i have proof now  ^_^
that being said, the rat race seems to have the better of me at the moment and my time on here will be sparse for a while, but once my financial situation is straitened out i will be all over the place like before  ^_^
what can i cay when words are not enough?  ^_^  the biggest thanx possible for sharing the kindness we needed to get through this tough time!  we will manage to keep our heads above water and more importantly (thanx to your beautiful words and pictures) we are as happy as ever - thankx to y'all, the mean people of the world will never get us down again!  ^_^
happy HAPPY trails, Anne M.
ps. i'm working on a video of things, so feel free to check it out soon  http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=divinityblue

please read this letter from a local Ron Paul meetup member... then get your BOOTS ON THE GROUND!

Dear Ron Paul Patriots,

I have to share a very touching (and motivating) story with you.  Andrea told me about an elderly woman in the East Valley Meetup Group who volunteered to help.  The woman said she could make phone calls, so Andrea sent her a list of names, and then another list, and then another!  The woman completed over five pages of names!  Andrea called the woman to check up on her the other night and was informed that our elderly patriot is now in the hospital in hospice care.  She is literally at death's doorstep, but she kept telling Andrea, "I'm so sorry.  I wish I could help more.  I'm so sorry."  This woman has no doubt lived a full life and now her strength is nearly all spent.  

I am so proud to be a part of a movement that inspires young and old to forge through pages and pages of phone numbers and names, all in the name of FREEDOM!  If you have been standing shoulder to shoulder with this brave patriot who, at death's very doorstep, is giving every last bit of energy and strength she has to preserve this nation, then I applaud you!  If you have yet to ask for a phone list I plead with you to do so! 

As I have been making phone calls I've noticed that quite a few people are still undecided and need only your voice to tell them who to vote for.  People are so friendly to me, even those who are voting for our opponents!  Do not be afraid, do not be shy!  You are made in the image of God Almighty and you have the strength and the power to march boldly forward to freedom.  I guarantee that if you make calls you WILL make a difference. 

Thank you for your hard work and thank you to this patriot who, in the twilight hours of her life, is still standing strong though her body now desires only rest.

Get a list of your very own today.  If you are short on time, then ask for a shorter list.  Be bold.  Be brave.  Do not lose hope and do not lose courage.  There IS hope for America! 

For the WIN in '08,

Elisa
