Fwd: [QUAD-L] Re: [quad] list. Being a quad
The old adage that It could be worse is so very true. However, that doesn't mean we shouldn't grieve our loss or vent our frustrations. All of us on the list drew the short straw and I imagine all of us get mad as hell over the unfairness of it all. I appreciate the little movement I have but I don't feel blessed because some other poor soul is in worse shape. Quadom is a bit of hell that simply varies in degree. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy (if I had one). Thanks, my friends, for letting me rant. Have a great day.

I think we would all agree that any minute thing that makes our lives more bearable is a good thing and in no way is meant to mean anything negative towards those in worse situations.

Re: [QUAD-L] Re: [quad] list. Being a quad
Whoever stated that there is no GOD -- is dead wrong-- he has proved to me that he is real several times in my life, First of all mankind introduced sin by going against gods simple instructions--- man and women would have lived forever in the Garden, God told them of all things you may eat here EXCEPT the Tree of Knowledge and if they did he told them they would surely DIE. God does not sin and does not lie. So in the begining It was the perfect set-up, now we must die to ever have eternal life. He saw that manking was so sinful that he even sent his son to suffer and die a horrible death for us ( which he willing did ) For any interested I'll tell one incident he showed me about 3 or 4 years ago. I have it wrote down date and all in a notebook. I had been reading the bible and praying an awful lot for God to give me wisdom and guidance, At that time I was obsessed with home, cars or a van, bills money and etc. Well one of those nights when me and my wife went to bed--she was asleep but I had eyes closed and was trying too also-Then next thing I knew, GOD had somehow took my soul/spirit or inner being out of my body and had me floating up about Four feet or so ABOVE me and my wife's ( Leeann's ) bodies.During this time I was mystified thinking I'm completely out of my body but can see everything, in the room..about that time while I was trying to understand what was going on-- GOD ( somehow ) showed me --Flashed it before me---Houses, Cars and large bank accounts or statements. Then in a loud clear voice, He spoke to my mind saying ( what does it all mean now??? ) I was so light and free of pain or feeling of Earth's gravity. ( I felt so good it's hard to describe ) Then I said ( means nothing ! your more important than Anything in the whole wide world ! ) At that point he spoke again saying.see that's what I've been trying to tell or show you. Then very swiftly as if he by his hand or some force shoved me back into my body !!!. As soon as I was in my body again, I felt very very heavy feeling pain and gravity's pull once again. ( I know some of you will think I'm a nut or Crazy) but I do not mind at allI just feel he wants me to tell someone ( anyone ) about this REAL experience from time to time.
