See what our sisters have to say
about our wonderful
"Ladies of the Heart"!

Being a member of LOTH means
always having a place to feel welcome,
a place to vent frustrations,
many, many shoulders to cry on,
many loving arms ready to hug you,
friends who truly care about you,
a place to share triumphs,
a place to share heartache,
lots of love and laughter,
enough for all, and plenty to go around.
Becoming a member of LOTH is one
of the greatest things that has ever
happened to me, and I mean that sincerely.
The love here never ceases to amaze me,
and always lightens my heart.
What more could you ever ask for
in a group of dear friends?

I think LOTH is one of the best things
on the Internet.
Sometimes when I am feeling lonely
or down, I know I can come home
and check my email and there
will be a Tidbits in my mail or
a new cause to support.
It makes me feel good to be part of a group
that is doing such good things.
I really feel good about myself
and the causes I support,
knowing that I'm not the only one out there
trying to do something good in this world.
Three cheers for my LOTH Sisters...
I salute you all!
Thanks,
**Dana :)

Loth is my window to the outside world on my
bad days my shining stars on
my bad days and good days and my reason to
go on doing what I need to do even
on days when the Lupus has me down an out.
I have recieved love support encouragement
cards letters and flowers and yes even phone
calls telling me they cared.
This to me means more than words
could ever say!
I feel Blessed to have such wonderful
loving sisters as I have in you!
I hope I can be as good as a
sister to you as you have been to me!
I love you all very much!

I "stumbled" upon LOTH quite by accident.
I was so impressed with the statements
made and the creed that I just had to apply.
This came at a time when my self esteem
was at rather low ebb so I really
didn't hold out much hope.
I was thrilled to be accepted,
little knowing the true depth of caring
and concern I would find with
this group of women.
Then I started reading tidbits.
I have been brought to tears by the
items and also reminded
that prayers do work.
I had gotten away from praying since
I lost my husband in 1992
but now find myself saying regular
prayers that always include these folks.
I thank all my sisters for this,
you've taught me a very special lesson.
To top that off, I've been getting acquainted
with all of you by visiting the
sites you've put together.
It's a slow process.
I assure you it's not out of
boredom but because of all the interesting,
informative, caring items, that I
just can't leave without browsing
(geez! you should see my favorites list!).
As if that's not enough...
they are so darn talented with
the design elements and to be honest,
some of the graphics
have left me breathless!
All kidding aside, my most heartfelt
thanks and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Although I am a silent memeber of
the LOTH because my computer is a
put together one for now and I can't
get into to chat site to visi
t with all of my sisters.
There have been many times
I wish I could have but it is
not within my power right now.
I read the tidbits as they come to me
and I pray for those that need it
and for all of my sisters.
When reading the tidbits sometimes it brings
tears to my eyes and I wish that
I knew the person who is typing as
I myself have been through alot in my life
and sometimes would love to share some
of it with others and maybe it would
help them in there time of need.
I feel that I am a very lucky person
to be a memeber of the LOTH,
but I wish that someone once in a
while would go and look at my small
homepage that needs work but I am
going to get started on it
real soon here to improve many
things and also add to it.
I wish you all well and may God bless
and keep you all...........

You have to know, first of all, that it
was always extremely hard for me to trust people.
(We won't go into the nasties of why).
God has been working with me over the years,
and I've come a long way,
but still need some *oiling* hehe.
When I first joined LOTH,
I could not believe so many women
actually cared about each other....
I mean...truly cared about
each other, not faking it!
There are times, when I want nothing
more than to extend *love* and a
big *cyber-hug* to everyone around me,
but life and its little intricacies likes
to play with your emotions when your *blue*.
I could not believe the outpouring
of love, acceptance and support
I received over something as simple as
requesting the sisters visit my site
and sign my humble little book.
I was embarrassed to ask,
because of so many sisters truly needing
someone to care about such important things.
After I finally got up the courage
to write and ask for a visitor,
the response was tremendous.
This may not seem like much to others,
but what it did for my ability to trust
people with MY feelings was tremendous.
So, I would like to *Thank you dear sisters*
for caring about something as small as my
little corner of the web.
I have had wonderful responses since
the sisters have visited,
and continue to hear from you.
Please, write anytime,
I love to write back
*could you tell* hehehehe.
For now, love to you all,
and *HUGS* from your LOTH sister.
Luv,
**Cuddlebug

With two children ages 3 & 4,
I don't get out very often.
I work full time, go to school full time,
there isn't a word called
"social gathering" in my book.
LOTH helps me get out and converse with other
adult ladies that have a purpose;
to support other ladies,
the web and ourselves.
Without LOTH, there would be no support
of any kind, html help,
and most of all...
love for each other. So I thank the charter members
for running with the idea of a women's group,
and making it a success.
I thank Kari for helping us keep "finger"
reach with our keyboards
in touch with each other.
I thank each and everyone of you,
for supporting the LOTH idea and coming
up with your own LOTH support page,
i.e. The Birthday Page, The Causes Page,
Who What Where Page,
The LOTH Pictorial, LOTH Feature Page,
and many more.
If we didn't believe in this,
we wouldn't be here...
LOTH is IN the HEART,
LOTH IS ALL OF US!
**SusanB.

This group of ladies surpasses every parcel
of imagination one might expect or dare to dream.
The strongest gift it has offered to
me is: a sense of community.
Encompassing our individuality and isolation,
this cyber-community embraces the "old ways" -
the responsibilities of each nation
to nourish and protect its own -
and to welcome new members with abandon.
Thank you ladies, one and all.
Love,

I am a new member to the LOTH ring and Proud to be.
I am not sure what to really write
except that I see a lot of love
from everyone and it is reassuring
{especially to people like myself} to all.
I am alone in this world
{or so it seems at times}.
I am a single child who's father walked
out on me and my mother when
I was * yrs old.
My mother raised me very well
to love each and everyone.
I only want to be loved
and to share my love.
Unfortuantely my mother passed away
June 29, 1996.
Which was a day before my 29th Birthday.
She passed away from Cancer,
though was a Kidney Dialysis patient for 5 years.
I have been on my own completely ever since.
But it was with the help from
good friends that pulled me through it.
When I saw the ring - LOTH -
I knew it was something I had to be
a part of, and am now so happy I did.
My home page is dedicated to my
mother and is full of friends.
I invite each and everyone
of my sisters to sign my guestbook.
I am amazed that I have recieved awards already,
- I love all of them.
You are all the best of the best and it show.
Always Laura - aka-
*Lady
The journey of a thousand miles
begins with a single step.
Care to walk with me???

(this will be short and sweet)
LOTH is a wonderful place to visit for me.
It reminds me that there still
is love and compassion in the world.
**Kelly

LOTH means knowing that no matter what,
you are never alone.
Isn't that what's most important?
**Lady Heather

LOTH has come to be one of the most
important elements of my everyday life!
Before joining this outstanding group
of ladies, I was very reserved
in doling out love, as I saw so
much abuse and people willing to give,
only under certain conditions.
When I saw how you ladies have loved
one another, and me, unconditionally,
and I saw that we could trust each other
with our most personal situations,
I knew I'd found a home,
a community of LOVE!
Everyone offers the most important
help to virtual strangers,
that being Prayer.
I have been reminded that help
is only but a prayer away,
and Love is still attainable,
without having to perform
any services to earn it.
Love is not something earned,
it is something given,
because it lives in our hearts,
but when we keep it locked up inside
our hearts and we don't share it,
Love never sees Light,
and therefore cannot grow.
I thank you all for showing
me how to really love.
It has improved every aspect
of my entire life!
Bless you and "I Love You!"
HAPPY 1st ANNIVERSARY,
Ladies of the Heart!
Love and LOTH Hugzz,
**Shaz

When I first joined this group of wonderful
ladies I was very close to the end of my rope.
Since that time my life has
really taken a positive turn.
It helped so much to know that people were
out there and that they cared.
When I see such devotion and respect,
it really makes me proud to be a part
of this special circle of women...
all of us doing what we are meant to do,
nuturing each other,
helping each of us grow and learn.
Every single one of us is special,
we are all loved and we are all real.
What Kari has started here is remarkable.
LOTH has given many people a home
in the purest sense of the word...< br>A home for our hearts and souls.
A haven for all of us to come together
in love, friendship and support..
making a difference in each individual,
but also an overall difference which
makes the internet and the world
a much more wonderful place.
It is my pleasure to be a part of
this portent group of souls.
We can make a difference...
we have and we will continue to do so.
Much love and happiness!!
Veronica
