Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: wysiwyg Date: 30 Apr 09 - 01:07 PM It's much more than a "daily" thought here, too, as I am sure it is for most of us. But I "speak" it daily. On This Day……… Mend a quarrel. Search out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicions, and replace them with trust. Write a love letter. Share some treasure. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest your loyalty in a word or deed. Keep a promise. Find the time. Forego a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Listen. Apologize if you were wrong. Try to understand. Flout envy. Examine your demands on others. Think first of someone else. Appreciate, be kind, be gentle. Laugh a little more. Deserve confidence. Take up arms against malice. Decry complacency. Express your gratitude. Worship your God. Gladden the heart of a child. Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love. Speak it again. Speak it still again. Speak it still once again. (author not known) |

Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Ebbie Date: 01 May 09 - 10:47 AM On yesterday's walk I passed a parked car whose license plate began EZR. Sent a prayer into the universe. |

Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Tinker Date: 01 May 09 - 04:21 PM Night falls and memories creep Laughing faces -- body's heat Replaced by routine and empty seats This day belongs to you alone But love still surrounds and fills those zones Held tight in memories love still keeps This day is yours and precious sleep Dreams and hope and future meet |

Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Tinker Date: 04 May 09 - 07:38 AM Monday morning... wet and gray Monday morning sometimes it just turns out that way... |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: SINSULL Date: 04 May 09 - 07:48 AM Sunny here. Rain tomorrow. |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: GUEST,Joe and Marie Date: 04 May 09 - 08:07 PM Rainy Days and Mondays, always think of the Carpenters song when I wake up on Mondays and its raining. Hoping prayers are heard from Rhode Island, Joe and I are still watching the thread and pulling up the Press Herald for news... any news. Elainakins, Debba, Becca, I love you all.. and think of you often throughout the day. Love you all.. air kisses oxoxox Joe and Marie |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: open mike Date: 04 May 09 - 09:21 PM Please excuse me if this is not approppriate...but perhaps there could be an expanded search involving other agencies besides local ones? Perhaps some missing persons agencies could be brought in to this case, or F.B.I. or C.S.I. or maybe even one of the crime shows on T.V. would take on the task of searching...I know this is not a confirmed homicide, and i do not know how long it takes to be called a "COLD CASE" but there needs to be more effort put into this search. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Without_a_Trace http://www.coldcasecenter.com/ National Center for Missing Adults..They Are Missed.. http://www.theyaremissed.org/ncma/index.php http://www.blackandmissinginc.com/cdad/index.cfm (this site has a page where you can report a missing person...needs to be filled out by a relative) again, please pardon it this is out-of-bounds, but i know many of us are wishing and hoping that there will be news soon. Blessings on all the friends and family members who await the news. |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: open mike Date: 04 May 09 - 10:26 PM some other helpful info here perhaps.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_persons \ http://www.theyaremissed.org/ncma/content.php?webid=hope2support http://www.myspace.com/missingpersons (this might be just from Australia) Ezra is listed here: http://mainemissingadults.com/ and here: http://www.helpfindthemissing.org/forum/showthread.php?p=558438 and should be here: http://www.maine.gov/dps/msp/criminal_investigation/missing_persons.shtml |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Janie Date: 04 May 09 - 11:56 PM Like open mike, I'm not sure how appropriate or helpful this might be. Perhaps I am posting this more for the benefit of these many of us who are here holding vigil but not intimately involved. I'm a psychotherapist, and the link which follows is from the professional literature regarding amiguous loss. It is definitely dry and somewhat technical. It may be helpful to Meghan and family. And maybe not. If not, simply drop it into "file 13." Ambiguous loss I can only imagine, but do not know, what it must be like to not absolutely know what has happened when a loved one simply vanishes. Love and peace. Janie |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: SINSULL Date: 05 May 09 - 08:08 AM Crossed the Casco Bay Bridge and said my morning prayer. Another day. |

Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: maeve Date: 06 May 09 - 08:24 AM I see new beginnings all over the garden; all responding to the blessing of rain on parched earth. May the rain bring comfort to you. maeve |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: wysiwyg Date: 06 May 09 - 09:57 AM Goodness is never beyond reach. ~Susan |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: SINSULL Date: 06 May 09 - 01:06 PM LOL I found that exact quote in a fortune cookie recently, Susan, along with "A handful of patience is worth more than a bushel of brains." I stuck the "bushel of brains" one on the board over my desk. No disrespect intended. |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: wysiwyg Date: 06 May 09 - 01:58 PM Um, I only have about a jot of either, can I swap with anyone? :~) (Sins, are we FINALLY getting on a good wavelength!?!?!) ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Neil D Date: 07 May 09 - 11:43 AM Still hoping... |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: open mike Date: 08 May 09 - 02:43 AM i saw a road side sign about Ezra temple and offered up a prayer on the spot. |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: wysiwyg Date: 08 May 09 - 06:40 PM Here through fog and weird columns of more fog eddying up from mountain ridges and valleys. ~S~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Janie Date: 08 May 09 - 10:40 PM The name Ezra is apparently derived from a hebrew word meaning "help." What you have shared about him makes clear it is a very fitting name, as he was quick to offer, and generous with his help. Thinking of Ezra and family tonight. |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: Tinker Date: 09 May 09 - 07:48 AM Bit of a gray morning with chances of sun -- sitting and waiting for the bright moments. |
Subject: RE: BS: Good thoughts needed, please From: GUEST,Becca72 Date: 09 May 09 - 12:49 PM The Portland Police found a body in the harbor last night. We are waiting for the results of DNA testing, but they are pretty sure it's our Ezra. While we all suspected this outcome, it's still very hard to have it confirmed. Continued thoughts are greatly appreciated. |
