I'm not saying it's necessarily the easiest place to blog, but faithcecilia might enjoy stpixels. If not to blog, to lurk!

I've just been over for a looksee at the St Pixels website - and gotta bit confused - but guess that could be 'cos I only went for a quick glance.

Another site you might like Faith is:

www.beliefnet.com

I'm not actually a Christian myself - as I've said before - more of a "hotchpotch" - but I rather like the version of the Lords Prayer they have there.

Found that Prayer:

There ya' go.

It's a vast American-based site and caters for all religions - so just click on the label "Christianity" to go to the Christian section. Because it covers all viewpoints within the Christian faith I personally have winced visibly at a couple of things that were put on as being "mainstream" - but are VERY different to the way of thinking that I personally recognise as Christian (clue: the last Christian church I was in was Quakers and you'll realise which bits I winced hard at if they are still mentioning it at intervals). But - I think you will find a lot there to your liking.

St Pixels has the advantage of NOT being American in origin.

Just popping in quickly to say I'm back. Had a good, if a bit hard, weekend, and am now armed with lovely 2nd hand designer clothes, including a BEAUTIFUL bright red coat! I may be sad and lost, but I'm beautifully sad and lost!!!!

I do not see that you can EVER be completely sad and lost in a beautiful bright red coat! I hope it continues to cheer you through the winter.

When it gets cold, I shall start wearing my beautiful bright pink long johns. Even though no-one can see them, I know I've got them on and they cheer me up no end! :rotfl:

I remember once ringing my sister and being greeted with "you're lost, aren't you!" to which I replied, "I'm not lost, I know exactly where I am, I just don't know how to get to where I ought to be". I had no map so all I could do was trust her directions.

You're travelling down a road you don't recognise and you can't see round the next bend... but ain't no one going to lose you in your beautiful bright red coat.

My counsellor opened the door to me today with a 'wow'!:D I was wearing my red coat, brown knee high boots, a brown and black stripy dress and a short black cardy. She says she couldn't believe the difference - not only in the clothes but in me, that she has been impressed with my progress from day one, but that there has been a massive change in the last week. She says I looked 'radiant':D:D I'm not entirely sure I feel radiant, but I have decided that I need to make the absolute best of the time I am out here, that there is no point and indeed no reason to be miserable all year just because I am not where I want to be. I can, and will do my best to, enjoy myself and have good experiences.

The only item of clothing I am wearing today that I actually chose/bought for myself is my knickers:rotfl:
