Thanks, Aquamarine. I had lots of help along the way from good people like you.

I remember on lady coming back to my door after about one year after I had been on that first Beginning Experience weekend to encourage me to go back for another weekend.

Bingo! That was the weekend that I could see that God was not punishing me, that I was not responsible for by husband's death (he smoked 3 packs a day and had smoked since he had been 12), and taught me that I needed to forgive myself, my husband and God before I could move on with my life.
