  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

A Sister In Need

A Sister In Need
---------------------------------------------------

I need your support, please pray for me!
Guilt and confusion
muddle my brain.

I suffer so much, and mentally
I repeat and repeat
this repeating refrain!

Being Bi-Polar frightens me so,
I fear being happy,
I fear being sad.

I find that my mind has nowhere to go
Confusion takes over...
I fear I've gone mad.

People avoid me, this just breaks my heart.
A stigma attached,
to last 'til I die...

I take lots of pills to keep myself calm,
but sometimes they fail,
and I don't know why.

My mood swings sometimes frighten me so!
Happy, I chatter
like a manic monkey!


Why must I suffer, why can't I be free
of this horrific thing
that is tormenting me?

Mom, Dad, hubby are gone, life too soon ends!
I must make a will!
At once! I cry!

I fear losing you - my sister, my friend.
I must make decisions
for when I will die...

I spend all my time crafting haloes for GOD.
I squint and I thread
and bead all the day.

Footlockers are filled with necklaces mod
Gorgeous, unique and
quite fine may I say!

I would take the bus to see you, dear Sis.
But I'm so afraid that
I would get lost.

Times without you are times that I miss.
So come visit me,
my tempest is tossed!

I fret and I worry and run through the day
Unhappy and lonely,
confused and alone.

So sister so dear, to you I must pray
Come to me soon,
or at least telephone...
