L ~ Love The love we share not only between each other but with the world
around us. Our love shows respect, responsibility, acceptance and is always
unconditional.
O ~ One another Every one us of is in constant action and our goals are
the same; to make the world a better place not only for ourselves but for
all who live in it. For the big and small, strong and weak, hopefully and
fearful, human and animal, Spirit's and God's. T ~ Tears The tears we cry
together. The tears that make us strong and help us grow. The tears that
flow from heartache, pain, love, laughter and awareness.
H ~ Hope The hope that we all hold in our hearts for ourselves, others
and the world around us. Our insistence that change is possible and everyone
has the ability to change and make themselves and others stronger. That
is what LOTH means to me, Shauna Brunette. I love my sisters with all my
heart. They make me better by; humbling me when I need to be humbled, carrying
me when I need to be carried, give me space when I need it, and knowing
when I don't, supporting me even when they do not agree with my decisions,
Laughing with me, crying with me, respecting me and my individuality, sharing
their knowledge, and loving me just the way I am....SHAUNA
It means I have a safe place to go whenever I need a shoulder.
It means I know I always have friends, no matter what I have done, or what
I am feeling. It means I can share my love with thousands of women across
the world. It means I can laugh, cry, and share my life with others. When
I first joined LOTH, I was a little afraid to give of myself. You see,
there wasn't that much left to go around (or so I thought). Then I met
women whose pain was much greater than my own. And I found I could reach
out, even in my own pain, to help them. That's what LOTH is truly all about.
Loving and reaching out, giving of ourselves. So. What does LOTH mean to
me? Love. Laughter. Tears. Giving. Healing. Hugging. Giving. And...Life....KRISITINE
Dear Sweet LOTH, what have you done for me lately? Well your
giving me back my heart and my trust. You are renewing the Lana that used
to be. Some years experiences put me through HELL and I have faced the
devil and met him eye to eye. He did not take my soul, my faith nor my
fight, but he took my trust in my fellow man away. It is so hard to talk
to you because of this. You ladies are my life savers of that part of a
lady that is sweet and warm and caring. You are renewing the softer side
of me. I don�t know if you can understand how I cherish the way you all
help and care about one another, sure I see the crankies now N then, but
that is the biggest part of the loving, caring, and sharing. The over looking
and the understanding for we are a chemically complex breed. As you will
notice I talk little and say what I have to say rather short and sweet
and to the point no frills or flowers. I love the ((HUGS)) I learned. It
helps me to express that I do sincerely care. So what have you done for
me lately? Ladies You Gave Me My Heart back, Your slowly restoring my Trust
for that wall is really hard to chip down. GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERYONE
OF YOU Sincerely...... LANA/Snappie ((HUGS))
LOTH is a family that I will never meet, but that are in my
prayers always. They are a big family of ALL GIRLS, which makes it more
fun! Each and every sister makes me feel wanted, loved and cared for! A
very, very special family that I am PROUD to belong to. HUGS.....LINDA/The
Orchid Lady
LOTH means a safe place, a place where I can go when I need
a shoulder to cry on, someone to share my joys, my tears, and my fears.
I know that I may not always get the answers I want, but WILL get what
I need. LOTH means watching many women come together when there is a fight
that needs to be taken on, especially for the children. It is a place where
hundreds of women, from diverse backgrounds, whether it be economic, belief
systems, ages, and nationalities can come together to rely on each other.
LOTH is my home on the web and I am so thankful to be a member. Love.....

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, nurturing 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...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
I have only been member for two months now so I haven't been
around long enough to really get to know very many of the sisters, but
what LOTH means to me is summed up in one word "SISTERS". Y�all
are a great bunch of wonderful ladies I am proud to be a member of. Sisters
are one of God's greatest gifts, someone to laugh, cry, and talk with--someone
to help ease burdens and share joys with. God Bless You All!!..... EMILY

I love this family of sisters...so many women who do so much
for others, whose lives reach out to help with certain causes, whose loving
concern touches so many other lives. One request for prayers, for assistance
with anything, for information, or whatever, brings many responses, creates
many new friendships. The creativity of these women is outstanding, both
as a group and individually. I am so proud to be part of this group/family.
I thank each and every one of you, and especially Kari, for all the work
she does in our behalf. Lovelovelove JENNIEROSE
I've been a silent member of LOTH for quite some time now, and
LOTH has always been a way for me to see some extraordinary women sharing
their lives- the good news for the sake of sharing, and the bad news for
support...It is an ageless, faceless, boundless net of friends...A blooming
rose is the perfect symbol for these women, as each Lady is just that-
an eternally blooming flower, showing the world her strength and beauty.
As long as there is a Lady of the Heart, there is strength, wisdom, and
courage in the world. .....JENNIFER
A warm place to shelter from a storm. Shoulders to laugh and
cry on. Friends through thick and thin. Caring and understanding for all.
This is what LOTH means to me. No trouble too great. No prayer too small.
Candles in the dark, to help light our way. This is what LOTH means to
me. .....Hugs, KATHY
