Lilli

I am a Christian, a wife, a mother, and a writer.

As a child I immersed myself in books. My early favorites were the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series. Like us all, my tastes evolved and my choices varied. When I'm not reading I enjoy scrapbooking, cooking, card making, and corresponding with friends and family. I'd like to find...more »

    You know when I was asking the question about who Joe Hill's dad was....I had a feeling it would be someone that would make me feel dumb for asking!! For some reason Stephen King did cross my mind! Now knowing that...and just going by his first book I think I might like the son a little better. At least until he starts having vague endings like his dad. I love a lot of SK's works but those vague "maybe they're happy....maybe they get eaten" endings make me nuts!! :)

    Dear Lilli,
    I'm so happy for being your friend. I'm a master degree student of nursing. I love my major. I live in Tehran. I love reading books. My favorite books are those from Marquez, Nietzsche, Steven R.Covey, Jalal al Ahmad,....and many others! My age is a great secret!as in many girls!
    I saw your shelf. I like the books you've put there.
    When I was a child, I liked to become a writer, but I couldn't because of many reasons. I'll write you much more at next time. Have a blessed time.

    A Letter From a Palestinian Mother in Gaza to an Israeli Mother
    Palestine March 7
    http://rafah. virtualactivism. net/news/ todaymain. htm


    I spoke with him a little, but when he sees me he begins to cry ...
    the situation in Sderot in general is very difficult, and I do not
    know how we can continue, how we can stay in the city.

    - Sderot resident Rima Haimov, whose ten-year-old son Yossi was
    wounded by a Qassam rocket. ("Doctors save hand of Sderot boy hurt by
    Qassam; 4 Palestinians killed in Gaza," Haaretz, 26 February 2008)

    ===

    Dear Rima Haimov,

    When I read your words the only thing I can say is that I feel sorry
    for your son, and that I can understand you as a mother and the
    traumatic events that your child is experiencing. I cannot deny the
    fact that life becomes very difficult in such circumstances when you
    realize that you and your family are in danger at any moment; I fully
    understand your worries, your feelings and concerns. I am addressing
    this letter to you with the hope that you will understand my pain too.

    Like I feel sorry for your son, I feel sorry for my Palestinian
    children who are born and will die in Gaza, unable to have the chance
    of seeing other worlds, and who have to face F-16s, Apache helicopters
    and the Israeli army's brutal invasions into Gaza. However, my
    children are not fortunate enough to have the excellent medical care
    that your son has. My children do not have the chance to run to a
    shelter and there is no alarm to tell them that there is a strike
    coming. My children cannot be guaranteed the love and care that your
    son found because all of their family might be killed in one strike,
    they might witness the death of their parents, or any of their dear
    family members as the Palestinians are targeted everywhere, even in
    their homes and among their children.

    My children cannot find the counseling that your child will have to
    help him deal with his appalling experience. They have to keep their
    pain inside them, and recall it day after day. Even in their dreams
    they suffer from remembering the things they have witnessed.

    My children are not children anymore; they lost their innocence and
    are forced to act like adults so they can protect themselves. They no
    longer cry to their parents because they realize that even adults are
    scared and also need comfort and security. Instead they swallow their
    pain and deal with it on their own.

    When your child is sick or injured he has the chance to go to the best
    hospitals to receive treatment while my children have to live with
    their pain and injuries because they cannot go to a good hospital like
    you have in Israel. In Gaza, they can only wait for the pain to pass
    or count the days waiting for the end. They have learned how to face
    death fearlessly, because they hope to find justice and a better life
    in heaven.

    While your child enjoys his new schoolbooks, my children have to use
    old, disreputable books because the borders are closed and even
    schoolbooks cannot be brought in.

    My children have to face the extreme temperatures because of the
    electricity cuts. They cannot enjoy sitting in front of the electric
    heater in winter or the fan in summer. While you as a mother can plan
    for your child's future, I cannot because my child is locked in a
    prison called Gaza, and he cannot dream of having the chance to
    receive a better education and work outside of Gaza.

    While you as a mother can give your child all the promises of a better
    life, I can not give my child these guarantees, simply because we are
    both eligible to die in any moment by an Israeli strike, without any
    plans, dreams, nothing.

    After all of this do you think that my children deserve their pain
    only because they are born to Palestinian parents? Do you think it is
    fair that they are treated in this way? Is it fair to be subjected to
    the sanctions that your government has imposed on us? I hope you can
    understand my pain too.

    Sincerely,
    Najwa Sheikh

    Najwa Sheikh is a Palestinian refugee from al-Majdal located just
    north of the Gaza Strip. Shiekh has lived in refugee camps in Gaza her
    entire life where she is married and has three children.

    Lilli,

    Hi my name is Amanda and I started the Positive Christian Moms group in January. Our group is small but growing. How many children do you have? I have just one, our son, but a little girl on the way. Please feel free to share advise, book recommendations, or daily challenges at any time on the discussion board.
    Greeting and blessings to you.
