Perfect Peace!

Nirvāna (Sanskrit: निर्वाण; Pali: निब्बान (Nibbāna); Prakrit: णिव्वाण) is a central concept in Indian religions. In sramanic thought, it is the state of being free from suffering (or dukkha). In Hindu philosophy, it is the union with the Supreme being through Moksha. The word literally means "blowing out" — referring, in the Buddhist context, to the blowing out of the fires of greed, hatred, and delusion.^[1]

Recently I could not stop worrying, and started to have bouts of anxiety. This lasted for three weeks. Karen suggested that I go and see my Doc, which I did. I gave him my symptoms, and he immediately put my on seroquel XR, which is an extended release med to help control mania, and anxiety. Well, it is working. I am very much subdued, and will need to get adjusted to the new med. I feel that I am in another world, and have a very hard time connecting at times. The side effects are real, and I will only be taking this med for a short time. I have peace, yes perfect peace in Jesus Christ, My Lord. Bipolar Illness is real, and must be carefully watched. I am stable now for 2 years. My thanks to Karen, who lives with this thing. Van

Family

Today has been a restful day for me. It has been over a week since my surgery, and I am feeling much better. I read my families posts, and I get so excited that we have a wonderful family. I check facebook, twitter, blogs, and email to stay in touch with everyone. I am proud to be a grandfather of two beautiful children and another baby to come soon. I am also proud to a father of three wonderful boys, and three beautiful girls. Lastly I can say that I know that I married the best woman in the world for me. Family keeps me thinking the right thoughts, and staying in line with God's word. I will mention here of all of the numerous parents, uncles, and aunts, cousins, nephews, and in-laws that are the best. I love you all, and thank you for your prayers, and encouragement. I use family tree, and wish to spend some time inputting new info. I may catch you, and ask for names, address's, and info to keep up with our growing family. Thanks, Van

surgery!

Today, October 11th, I had surgery to place bone into my jaw. Later when it heals I will have a titanium rod placed into the socket, and then a porcelain crown to finnish the operation. This is an important tooth, as it is my back molar. I am glad that the surgery is over, and that I am home resting. Teeth are like life. Much maintenance has to be done in order to keep a balanced life. Prayer, bible study, fellowship, witnessing, and unconditional love to all men. Life is like a tooth that gets a cavity. A cavity hurts, causes plaque to build up, and needs attention. When I in life need attention, God speaks to me, and asks me to get to Jesus , my doctor for a checkup. I am so glad that Jesus always looks out for me.
