YOUNG KATHI

Past Picture of me when I was at Canton Lake

I am thinking I am about 7 or 8

Judy Puckett DeFelice found this on an old movie and took the picture and sent it to me.
Thank You Judy, I don't have any pictures of me growing up.  They were probably left in the attic at the home that I grew up in.  WIsh I could find them, I think t would jog my memory of my childhood.

Stand by Me from Methodist Hymnal 512.


When I was going thru the deaths of my parents I had a friend send me a song that helped me through those days.  "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" by Simon & Garfunkel.  I still cry when I hear those words of support....... (See Lyric's Below)
Your life is always changing and yesterday at church we sang #512 "Stand by Me"  I don't know why but I couldn't stop crying.  I just decided that it was the best song I had heard in a long time.  As I read the words now it soothes my soul.

1 When the storms of life are raging,
stand by me (stand by me);
when the storms of life are raging,
stand by me (stand by me).
When the world is tossing me
like a ship upon the sea,
thou who rulest wind and water,
Ssand by me (stand by me).
2 In the midst of tribulation,
stand by me (stand by me);
in the midst of tribulation,
stand by me (stand by me).
When the hosts of hell assail,
and my strength begins to fail,
thou who never lost a battle,
stand by me (stand by me).
3 In the midst of faults and failures,
stand by me (stand by me);
in the midst of faults and failures,
stand by me (stand by me).
When I do the best I can,
and my friends misunderstand,
thou who knowest all about me,
stand by me (stand by me).
4 In the midst of persecution,
stand by me (stand by me);
in the midst of persecution,
stand by me (stand by me).
When my foes in battle array
undertake to stop my way,
thou who savèd Paul and Silas,
stand by me (stand by me).
5 When I’m growing old and feeble,
stand by me (stand by me);
when I’m growing old and feeble,
stand by me (stand by me).
When my life becomes a burden,
and I’m nearing chilly Jordan,
O thou “Lily of the Valley,”
stand by me (stand by me).

==========================================

 "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" by Simon & Garfunkel.  
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
Oh when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard, I will comfort you
I'll take your part
Oh, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl, sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

My Belief

When a new person crosses your path in life, listen to what they are saying to you. If it is something, you have never heard of before, research it. It may be an angel talking through your new friend to guide you to peaceful solutions.
