I can see the philosophical influence in your writings. Also sense the angel presence. Though I'm not sure if thats truly in source or connections.

Prayer is our lifeline, to me its the phone line back home we need, and yet there truly are forces opposed to our prayers and also to positive thoughts, so often tackling a negative image or thought reveals quite alot, the struggle and even gravity/jaki reveals the presence of something. At times like that turning the thought around, persisting in the prayer, including their presence even and praying for them as well, for all to choose happiness and reach the end of that bungee cord, and turn around.

This thread contains alot of depth, and look forward to reading more. Blessings! May the Spirit of Peace and Love guide you always.
