		<description>thank you Joyce... i am facing each day differently, there are days when i want to fight and days when i just want to give up and accept. somehow sharing my thoughts here have done me some good. i dont have the courage to share what i am going through with my family and not even with my closest friends. how can i explain to them something that i myself am unable to understand? i know that just like me, they will be surprised. up until now, i am carrying this burden on my own. i pray and pray and pray that i will find the answers to my questions, Joyce. i never imagined my life to turn around like this. my world revolves around him and i cannot imagine myself being with anyone else. And these are the same thoughts that make it even more painful since he doesn&#039;t feel the same way. 
i know that i will be ok someday. but for now the pain is still too much for me to even think about my someday without my husband. please continue to pray for me. thank you for your words of advise, somehow i feel lifted by the promise that this will make me stronger, and that God will lead me to the right direction.
i hope someday i&#039;ll be able to come back to you to let you know how i&#039;ve weathered the storm, and that i am happy again.
God bless you Joyce.</description>

		<description>Dear Gina,


I hope you were able to have a better day today.  I have received your letter, and I understand how difficult it is to move on with a broken heart.  I wish I merely possessed some magic pill to take away all your pain, but I guess all that I have is a heart that could listen to your cries.  For what its worth, know that you are never alone.  In your loneliest hours, know that God is with you.  Before you even knew pain, He already suffered and died for you and He understands everything you&#039;re going through.


For now, all we could do is to entrust everything to Him in prayer.  I could never stop your tears from falling, but know that there is One who catches your every tear.


You have loved with all your heart and it wasn&#039;t returned.  Know that God has also loved with all His heart and yet it was also broken.  He gave everything, and they took away even His life.


I do not have the answers, I just know the One who does, and we can all go to Him when we can&#039;t understand anymore everything that&#039;s happened to us.  


Just for today, set your eyes upon Him, and away from those people who caused you pain.  You can build your world again.  You can start your life again. You will undergo much pain but it will only make you stronger and wiser, and more capable of love.  Never give up.  With God, you&#039;d be much stronger and braver than you ever thought you could be.  Be blessed!


Yours In Prayer,

JOYCE</description>

		<description>i feel like i wrote this prayer. my husband left me two days ago after five years of being married and fourteen years of being together. i thought we were happy, we argue sometimes but seldom fight, we share the same interest, we would always do things together. we never had any major problems. our families get along. i have always been proud of the kind of relationship i thought we had and friends would envy us for the relationship we shared. but over the past months i noticed small changes which i ignored at first. when confronted he just told me he wasnt happy anymore and he doesnt love me anymore. i felt my whole world crashed right before my eyes. when somebody you love will all your heart tells you that he doesnt love you anymore, how do you respond? he never even gave us a chance to fix whatever was wrong.i know of couples who&#039;s had problems bigger than our but have managed to stay together. but he said his decision to leave is final. and he did. i&#039;ve been crying for two days now. nights are worse because i feel more alone when i go home to our empty house. i cry myself to sleep. when i wake up and realize that he is not beside me, i start to cry again. i see pictures and things around the house that remind me of us, and i cry. why is love never equal? what did i do to deserve this? i want to fight for our marriage because marriage is a scared union and i believe that in marriage the love should always be bigger than any problem that comes along.  but i dont know if he feels the same way. and i am afraid to be hurt even more if I try to find out. maybe i should just accept that he doesnt love me anymore. because how can you hurt somebody you love, right? i would never hurt him in the way that he is hurting me now. i wouldn&#039;t wish for him to feel the pain that i am feeling. should i fight for us or accept my reality? please pray for me.I still care for him and i worry for him still. i&#039;ve known him for 16 years and was with him for the last 14. i know he has a lot of things on his mind too. so please pray that he finds his happiness  if the happiness that he seeks leads him back to me, i will be here for him. if not, i hope to find peace and happiness too. its been the longest two days of my life and every new day is worse than the day before.</description>

		<description>I have done everything for him, I gave him all the love that I can give. I trusted him with all my heart. I do not deserved all the pain that he gave me. He does not even care for our son. I have done all the sacrifices in our relationship but I was the one who feels the pain and he who brought the pain seems so happy with the other girls. I just keep on praying that one day we will forget him and soon. I hope he could realized the mistakes he did. I hate him so much.</description>

		<description>@Joan Cortez - Yes I will pray for you, Joan.  Be comforted in God&#039;s unconditional love.  There are things that hurt us so much that we want those who hurt us to also feel our pain.  Maybe someday they will, we could never really know.  But let us not let them dictate the state of our emotions.  Let us free ourselves from their power that keep us from finding our own joy.</description>

		<description>@Tru - I pray for you now.  Don&#039;t lose heart, all is not yet lost.  Sometimes, it&#039;s when it&#039;s darkest when things are just about to turn better.  Cling more to God and He will give you the strength to carry on.  God bless!</description>
