| I work in a place to help people on income assistance become employed. I am the workshop facilitator and resource room coordinator. This week has not only been very busy for me work wise, but it has been very emotional 2 people who have been with the company 5years + (I'm 2+) left to go to other jobs. They are missed. But the worst was a client I saw crying and asked what was wrong--she said she wanted to commit suicide. She told me her story and I did my best to counsell her, and listen to her. The saddest thing she said was that she had tried to commit suicide before and all she regrets is not accomplishing it--living. When I told her I wanted to call someone to help her she ran out. All I could do was report the incident to the police. How sad and alone she felt--I wanted to cry myself because people get to that place. There was nothing else I could do. |

Itshorrid when we feel helpless isn't it? I've sent a ray of light ot you to help you emotionally. I am sure that your counselling helped her, even though she walked away, trust you did all you could do and that wherever she ends up, it is her path to walk. Love Erika xxx |

Thank your for saying that--I do know it's her path--but I also wonder why are paths crossed? Was there something I was supposed to learn from the meeting? Or was there something she was supposed to learn? That's a question I know I don't have the answer to but would like to.
Thanks again |

I thin maybe there was something for both of you there.... For her to know that someone would spend time with her may just have been enough; for you to understand that we can only try, and not force things in the way we would like them to go. Thats a hard lesson and one that can sometimes trip us up, so maybe your encounter can bring you the message that you gave with love, and the rest is for the higher powers to work out. Love Erika xxxx |

I don't want to sound patronising ,
but, I think you are a very special person.
maybe you gave her a little bit of faith,and hope,
that not everyone is cold and uncaring.
although it's seems like it sometimes,when someone is in a desperate state.
lets hope she is feeling much better now,and hope that she got the care she so needed.love Brandy xxxxx |

I just wanted to let you know about the woman who was going to commit suicide. She came in today and said the police had contacted her. She wanted to thank me--because I called the police she knew someone cared. She had promised the police she would talk to a counsellor and she was doing that. I was so glad to see her. I think she will be okay--with help.

Have just read this thread. Service comes to us in many diffrent ways we are not aware of. Yet these are true acts of sevice. Sevice with purpose is devine, service without forward knowleged make us shine all the more You showed compasion, you cared enough to call the police. Who in turn found her, and now she knows she is not all on her own, that out there in the world ,that can only look cold, cruel and lonley, someone cared. Now she will get help to build herself up and learn to want to live life. You saved this womans life hun it wasent her time to go and you were the intrument used to save her. God BlessYou  Alot of that didnt come from me  hun but i do agree Love Silver xoxox |
