  • 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

This is just something that I wrote about how I kinda feel at the moment, that my life has had a series of experiences and each one you get through, then theres the aftermath to deal with and adjusting etc etc even years later.
Anyhow, dunno what to call it just thought I'd post it..... ;)

BEACH POEM:

The storm passes
Glitter floats on the waves
A breeze catches in my hair
Head turned to the sun, eyes squinting.
The sea thrashes the beach with a thousand salt pieces
Again and again,
My heart feels at one with the sand
Stripes healed in places, some not quite
Merciful God
Scars
Hold my hand

The storm is passed
Beach changed forever
My soul carries different knowledge now too
Footprints to be washed away follow me
As I leave this place
If tears mean cleansing
Then they have dried on my face
In the warm wind

God walks with me
Understanding I am tired but alive
Loving me gently.

THE END...............................................
