god luck with your decision. If you read my posts, I did suggest you make
people connections via phone. Also, over the internet, you can talk to
people; haven't done it, but its called skipe and there are other ways with
conference calls online.
I do agree that you need the human connection. Often I feel isolated too;
I'm a member of a nfb chapter, but we see each other only once a month and
with chapter members having families and work commitments, its hard to reach
them. And I live in a part with family that sucks transit wise. I can use
paratransit, but it’s a bit unreliable; but I cannot use the fixed route
service unless I have someone pick me up at metro.
I will be attending community college soon, but that is mostly listening,
not making connections unless I join a club, which I might do.
And I can get rides from family but I have to plan in advance for it so they
can take me.
So while I can get out with more resources, I think we all struggle with
transportation in a car rich society and with lack of friends since sighted
people may not accept us.
Again, I hope things improve for you.
Ashley

Hi all
First off I will say what the pastor had said to me.
She is kind of a prayer councilor.
Well she did say not to in a round about way not to worry about
serving until you grow more type of things.
Well she she said something reguarding my inadcic inaddicquic or
whatever if i am not feeling i am not serving.
Well I have comments about what she said. First about the growing part
well to certain extend I had been trying to grow spiritually. It is
as if you guys expect me to do it alone and things is the approach and
things. I believe that somebody older should mentor the younger person
like it was done in old testament things like that.
I don't think not going to church is the best idea the bible says not
to forsake the assembly.
I need somebody else in my life that will just pray for and with me
and things of that nature.
As far as the growing part is everybody's is groing or we are
growing all life and things. If the church is expecting me to be
perfect that will never happen on this side of heaven relistically.
I almost or thought after wards well you need to help me with that
not just say i need to grow more that is what i thought about saying.
About the inatiquoacy part well I am not exactually wanting to help
others to help myself I just want to help others for god's sake in
practical ways or different ways.
Anyways As far as lonelyness and the depression part of things and
This is and I hope you don't mind Paul from baltamore is Paul has
struggled with lonelyness before himself. and maybe he still does
even though he has not said anything about it lately.
You just can't tell somebody just to snap out of it over night and
things. You just can't just tell somebody as ano only resort to go
to god only when you are lonely Internet sites are nice email groups
are nice but as Paul says person to person or in person is much much
nicer. and even on the phone is much nicer than email groups and
being able to hear somebody's voice.
You guys need to put yourself in my shoes and things not that you
are the same way but you need to imagine that you are in the same way
i am picture yourself living in a rural area Every person is from a
different back ground and a different walk of life even on this group
and also each person has a personality of their own.
Even each rural area is different from one another in what it has and
doesn't have things like that.
You have to just think before you are saying.
and i don't think allot of people do they just say more more and more.
