Welcome as always.
I read this last post of yours a multitude of times before I realized why I kept going back over it. You started one paragraph 'In my short experience here' that I know was intended to challenge people in love, but I am concerned that it may discourage as many people as it inspires.
In my long experience here, I have found many different types of people, many with a multitude of additional health issues; people with the inability to digest properly, people so devastated by this disease that they are unable to afford the protocol, people who have been chewed up and spit out not only by the medical establishment, but by various online predators offering quick cures.
I could go on and on. Bottom line, they are sick, they are exhausted, and they are wary.
Sometimes young warriors see only two shades of color, but an old Samurai sees all the colors in the rainbow.
Two things I have learned along the way:
1. You have to love people where they are and earn their trust before you can hope to hold them accountable. This was a hard lesson that I had to learn. People don't care what you know until they know how much you care.
2. Each person is ultimately accountable for his or her own choices. There is an old Samurai saying, 'You can lead the horsey to the pond, but he may not want to swim'.
I don't want to take away from the powerful truth of the message you delivered, especially since I know how your heart is pulling for every Morgellons sufferer, but I just felt the need to share this concern.
God bless you for all the help you have given here. Your enthusiasm and tenacity are a great inspiration, and I know you will never, ever give up hope.
Mel
P.S. - Personally, being an old Samurai, I love all warriors! |
