I dream of a mountain far away. Where the little birds are singing and the animals frolic. The stillness of the air. The smell of the pines.
I dream of a mountain far away. Where my human family can not find me.

What???....oh no you don't Mister,we shall hunt you down I say,hunt you down,besides..we'll be there too.
"I'm living on the mountain,underneath a cloudless sky,
I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry;
oh,yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,
For Iam dwelling in Beulah Land."
I was not talking about this dear family here. I was talking about my physical family.
Ya know the ones I grew up with and are supposed to love me.
I love all of you too much not to have a big moutain we can all be there.

Just remember He loved us before we first loved Him.
The family we first grew up with are the hardest nuts to crack because they, like some smart alec once said about Doris Day,"I knew her BEFORE she was a virgin."
We can love our flesh and blood rellies freely no strings or conditions attached..because FREELY FREELY WE HAVE RECEIVED GRACE!
Chin up Gary!....keep covering them all in prayer.

We can, and should love them, be they blood or through the Blood relatives, but that doesn't always mean we're gonna like them.....

Needing a break from them is not the same as not loving them.
I never said I did not love them.

You are right Gary.I apologise for taking you further than you intended to go,you never did say that you did not love them.I actually didn't think that you were saying that,but I see now more clearly it is about taking a break from them.
That's healthy at times Gary.
