 Lim is a lovely name...
by: Darlene Barriere - Webmaster

You were blessed to have someone like Dan in your life, Lim; he sounds like a man who knows how to draw people out. He certainly knew how to draw you out. I do hope you are continuing to get some form of therapy for what you dealt with as a child and what you witnessed. Talking about it will be helpful.

Thank you for sharing our story with my visitors and me.

 I can relate
by: Francine

Lim, I can relate; my dad berated me while my mom would hit me. I can also relate to Horhei's beloved dog named Dice; My grandparents have a black cat, and if my grandma did something like that to that cat, my grandpa and I will be so mad at her! I'm so glad that Dan is with you now cuz he is so sweet for doing that!

 name

I too have changed my name due to the abuse i received... when i was a child everyone called me by my nickname... when i became an adult and needed to separate from my past i used my birth name which no one really knew cause they had all called me by my nick name... whats interesting now is if someone calls me by nickname or if recieve a phone call and they ask for the nickname i panic... im scared that those who abused me have found me or that i will remember something i dont want to from the past ...
Lim is a nice name. The start of the use of "Lim" could be for you a beginning... a start on the path of really living ... i wish you the best. thanks for sharing your story...

 It's healing...
by: Lim

I'm kind of healing from all of that...Dan's really helped me a lot.We were once doing a nickname game one day and kids had to come up with a nickname that rhymed with their actual name.For example,Dan said his was: Dan the Man.It was kind of fun.You didn't have to pick a nickname that described your personality,so I came up with something.I thought up before that Lim was a part of some name,so I chose the real name to be Limaruder.Crazy name,isn't it?But I had a wild imagination years ago,so I said my nickname would be Limaruder the Murderer.Of course,I wasn't a murderer,but it was fun!Dan and I have thought up crazy stuff,and I have had fun with him...still do.
Thanks for letting me post my story "Webmaster".It was great sharing.
