"'My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior. For he has looked upon his handmaid's lowliness'" - Luke 1:46-47

I am really no one special. Just an ordinary Catholic trying to serve the God she loves. I can't guarantee that this book will be anything special, either, but if it is, it will all be thanks to Him.

I'll be posting a new reflection every Sunday about a particular way that the readings from that day have inspired me. My hope is that you'll join me in reflecting on these passages. I may be no one special, but maybe together we can grow closer to the One who is.

The leaving 11 years on on going stopped up dating for a awhile  by CarolOBrien1
2 parts Complete Mature
The leaving. It was hard, tragic , painful, yet it had to be done, I needed to save my life. I didn't want to start again, this would be the story of finding myself, pulling myself back together, reuniting the happy go lucky youngster I had once been. The shock of leaving took more of a toll on me than I thought it would. I had asked two people to help me move out of the house I had shared with my partner for 8 years, we had been together 23 years in total. The move was done in total secrecy, my partner could never know in advance, it was a very scary time. I had moved various things out of the house and secured a rent on a property nearby. The house I picked was near the School the children went to, and my oldest lad was going to be near his best friend. My Mother told me of the property it was advertised on the web, we both went and had a look, even that was scary, I didn't want to be seen by anyone and became paranoid that I would be caught out. For many months I lived on a new kind of fear, the fear of someone finding out that I planned to leave my abusive partner, though of course no one knew my seemingly happy, funny, generous partner was abusive. Finding the house was one thing, getting the various companies to connect the house and exchanging the information of my current address so they could varify that I was, who I said I was almost drove me mad. The day came to leave, My Mother and a very dear Friend came round as early as possible, we packed as much as we could. This included taking the boys clothes, bedding, toys, stuff from the garden, my stuff. We had 3 cars the packing seem to take all day. By the end we had to get going to be able to unpack, leaving me time to pick up the boys from School and settle them in their new home. I couldn't do it at first,I started to cry then scream, to leave the world I had put so much of my life into, and now in a split second would be leaving was breaking my heart.

There is a secret that hasn't been told to her. There is a part of her that she has no idea existed. Who she is, is not something that she had expected. All she thought that she had to worry about was joining a pack with a mate that she had known would happen for ages. However, there was a catch. Unlike others, she could choose her mate. This was something about a prophecy. Oh, don't forget about the mysterious mark of Ankh that had appeared on her wrist, indicating that she was something greater than she thought. Meet Jasmine, DeLuka, almost turned 19 year old and the Alpha Female of a pack that had no males. However, that was going to change on the night of her 19th birthday when she is mated to her mate.
