I hope to encourage you by reminding you that The LORD is your Rock, your Fortress, and your Savior; He is your God, in whom you will always find Protection. He is your <br />Shield, the Power that saves you, and your place of Safety (Ps 18:2)! Love you so much!<br />ShawnSherilyn https://www.blogger.com/profile/07512950963864481769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14357471.post-24922761859554528142013-07-16T09:42:12.597-05:002013-07-16T09:42:12.597-05:00Tawanna, My heart breaks for your pain.

You must not let them take from you the gift of the life you have earned. You deserve the same treatment and respect as anyone else. My heart is with you. Hold your head up and live your life proud.miss.annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11143488375616407629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14357471.post-84666475456357641562013-07-15T16:27:00.940-05:002013-07-15T16:27:00.940-05:00OF COURSE that racial profiling should upset you!!...OF COURSE that racial profiling should upset you!!!!!!!<br />I am so angry and hurt for you, Tawanna. You have told me about that type of thing before, where someone comes to the door and is surprised to see a black woman open the door.<br />OF course we know in our hearts that the people who allow their prejudices to override their appropriateness are in the wrong. But what in the world can we do in this world except for make our little corner of it as safe, loving, and compassionate as possible.<br /><br />I hate it that a woman as full of life and love as you are has to, still, prepare her children for a world that holds you suspect because of the color of your skin.<br /><br />In the meantime, if it helps, remember, there are many good people out here who love you.<br /><br />(Also, I was thinking about you just this morning...are you up for visitors while we are home???? The next two weeks are rather chaotic, but after that it would be fun to get together...)<br /><br />BTW, I know Ahermitt (The commenter above)! She and I know one another through our blogs! <br /><br />SMOOCHES and lots of love,<br />KarenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03309932952235453461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14357471.post-73835521828339679802013-07-15T15:34:51.861-05:002013-07-15T15:34:51.861-05:00<3<3 Maydomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01508822804492918550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14357471.post-21983902488475178492013-07-15T15:10:03.008-05:002013-07-15T15:10:03.008-05:00Thank you.
