I've never mentioned before on BF what my quote means at the bottom of every post. It's kind of an inside thing so other christians will know that I'm one of them.
The following is the famous christian poem my quote is based off of...
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed He was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from His life. For each scene He noticed two sets of footprints in the sand. One belonging to Him and the other to the LORD.
When the last scene of His life flashed before Him, He looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of His life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times of His life.
This really bothered Him and He questioned the LORD about it. LORD you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me.
The LORD replied, my precious, precious child, I Love you and I would never leave you! During your times of trial and suffering when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.
I thought this may give you some comfort... Hope you liked it.

Dave,
I only just found out about your bereavement. I am so sorry. I can't conceive of how you're feeling. The loss of a loved one to age after 50 happy years of marriage can be accepted. To be robbed of her in this senseless fashion, no.
I'm not religious, but I remember learning at school that "Energy is never created nor destroyed, it merely takes on a different form." Surely love such as the two of you have cannot end. It has simply changed.
Wiser men than me say that you two will meet again.
You are in my thoughts.

Dave,
Sincere condolences to you and your family. I can't imagine your saddness in this time, but hopefully sharing it with family and friends will take some of the pain from you.

The wife and I will have you and yours in our prayers. This will also be mentioned at church next Sunday for all our members to pray.
Sorry I missed this but I was out of pocket for a long weekend.
It will get better even though it doesn't seem like it now.
Oh *$&^#$)#(@&$($).

Dave,
Hi Buddy. Like you mentioned, I feel like 'family' in a sense too, even though we never chatted. I always respected and enjoyed your warped sense of humor.
I'm just another who came into this news late and just feel like I want to support you in spirit. I'll say a small prayer for the two of you.
Mindful,
Coop
