tell me - why do you weep -

Why do you weep ... make me understand ... tell me...
are you sad because we have strayed so far, are you upset at the turn our lives have taken, does it make you weep to see some of us leave home and forsake family for another life .....
Tell me why do you weep ...... make me understand
It distresses me so to see you like this, it hurts me more than words can say, I have not seen you nor heard from you and now I see you weep ....
Tell me why do you weep .... make me understand
It is so hard to step into your shoes and to keep the peace, no matter how hard I try, I keep failing ..... my heart aches.....I do not know what else to do, so please do not weep for us ....
Please continue to pray for us, send us as much healing as it takes to make us whole again .....we need so much help from up above, could you whisper in God's ears and ask Him to take pity on us .....we are helpless, powerless, we need so much healing, we need strength to get us through each day .....
Please do not weep for us .....

My first Lush experience

My eyes twinkled when I spotted my very first Lush shop .... stepped inside excitedly and was greeted by a very friendly associate. She introduced me to all the lovely aromatic products and it was love .... I knew I was going to purchase some stuff, with names like Buffy, You Snap the Whip, Demon in the Dark, Sea Vegetable (which is my favourite) ...... and the aroma, not to mention the natural ingredients in the products just seduces to wicked indulgences.
Needless to say indulge I did, I am happy with my purchases, even more so when I got home and googled the products .... it's going to be a spa day everyday for me.
Yes, Ken and I were on a mini vacation in Rhode Island, it was nice just to get away for a few days, spend time together and just relax.
We did the tour of the mansions .... these people are loaded, just look at their mansions and the property and their yachts bobbing on the waterfront. Must be nice to be extremely rich.
The fun was in the lake at Roger Williams Zoo, Ken and I we floating in this swan like boat and had difficulty going through the tunnel under the bridge. We struck the side of the bridge and had to maneuver the swan-boat (before me waving for assistance like a damsel in distress), we managed to paddle our way around the lake, made the tunnel entrance on our second attempt through to the other side of the lake. Chased some ducks and than manoeuvred ourselves back to the docking area. It was a whole lot of fun!!
Have you heard of Monkey picked Oolong tea, not me, I thought it was just a name for the tea, however I was surprised when I discovered (actually goggled it) that the monkeys were trained by the monks to pick the young tea leaves. Ken asked, "well did the monkeys wash their hand before the task", hahahaha, just like a guy (eyes rolling) ...
