• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

I would like to apologize.

I would like to apologize to all widow's/ widower's if I have upset or offended anyone. I thought this forum would help us come together to talk and share experiences. I didn't stop to think that it may be hurtful to some, or bring up painful memories for others. Please except my apology's. Big hugs to you all. God bless you.

I am glad that you have started this forum. For me, painful isn't exactly the term that I would use. Even after 10 years, it is emotional to bring back memories. But that is a GOOD thing. We loved this person that we lost. We each have a unique story. And the majority of people that we meet will never understand . That is the truth of it.

Yes, it was a great idea! A good place to go, not only to share feelings of our loss but also to see how others are doing and coping with their loss! We are each different but joined in a common circumstance of grief!

Even after 9 years memories can be so quickly brought on my little details of life and send us back to feeling so difficult to cope with!

I know God's ways and timing are perfect but we were given the emotions we have by Him and it is helpful to look at them, share them with others who really do understand! That is what we find here I believe!

Thanks for providing such a place where our hands join to support each other in this journey!

Special blessings to each of you on this Thanksgiving Day as we remember the one that no longer shares this day with us except in our special memories! :hug:
