I am a person who read your 'reaching out'today,Monday 4th January.Today mail should be deliverd to you,but most probably there will be a delay handling it to you?We hope for the best! Since many years I write with American inmates;pen pals.:) Maybe in the future you can put your address on the blog so people can write you personaly? First of all I like to wish you a New Year of inspiration,opening doors(such as writing with somebody),friendship, warmth and inner peace.Working at ourselves makes you free inside,Antonio.The mental freedom is possible. I don't know lonelyness such as you experience... but I reach out to people who go trough this ordeal. I am not an american as you've seen probably already.I am a woman, of 67 and feeling young inside.I've a young mind I guess. Belgian of birth and as a family(I am divorced now, but my ex and me are still befriended)we lived 7 yrs in the States:3 in Utah and 4 in Ohio. Later on we lived almost 6 yrs in Argentina(Buenos Aires)We have two daughters, Elke and leslie. Only Leslie was born in Utah;also both studied 4 yrs in Ohio. Leslie and her husband lately lived in CA and decided to stay in San Diego. :)They have kids: Adric and Claire, 7 and 5yrs. Elke and her husband expect another child for the 28th of January!Their girl Lynn will be two on the 21st of that same month. I am a busy woman,doing lots of activities,Antonio. I have painted a lot(being a creating person!),I play the piano, I write on internet and love so many things more! My main purpose here is to know what you have in store? I'd like so very much you open up and tell me what your dreams and goals are...:))) Never losse hope nor courage and I will help you maintaining that part of your life.All happens for a reason;I just didn't find you just like that.In my opinion there are no coincidences.:) May this ne 2016 be the beginning of our friendship?I surely hope so!! kind greetings from Rita
... aking Flemish(or Dutch).The Dutch of the south, since I am Belgian.The Dutch of the north is from The Netherlands.Belgium has 3 official languages; Dutch, French and a minority speaks German. I do live in Antwerp(en)and mom lives in Brussels,our capital. We have two daughters: Elke,36 and Leslie,35. My ex stayed in Argentina, we divorced,but we are still befriended. As a family we lived 7 yrs in the States: 3 in Utah and 4 in Ohio. We left for the first time with baby Elke and Leslie was born in Utah. She has two nationalities. Later the girls studied 4 yrs in Ohio. Later on we lived also almost 6yrs in Argentina.There I was exposing some paintings. Oils, watercolors and inkts mostly. I did academy of Arts in the city of Mechelen (oils and drawing) and was thought watercolor by Stephen Suchy,an American.
Who am I in a nutshell?I am a creative 67yr old peron but with a young mind.Like my mom I do not look my age.;)Then again, an age is just a number, eh. Everythoing happens for a reason, and so I must have found your name not just by coincidence.(smile) To add a little ùore of my personality:I am very social,sportive,I do have a positive spirit and am an engaged woman.In my lifetime I did a lot of voluntary work as well.I love literature,and do write now and then poetry.Love to dance, my yoga, playing piano and reading books. At 19 of age I was a teacher in primary school; but then at 30 we moved to the Stetes.
I can tell things more later and wait for your answer,prior to write you a personel letter,ok?
hi Steven, On the 3rd of January I went through a whole list of inmates and began at the end of it ans saw your name. I noticed you had almost none response, and after reading it,I was very enthousiatic because of what I read! I didn't see your profile, but I could tell you aren't very young anyumore, so to see the content of your letter!
By this I send my wishes to have a New Year plenty of inspiration, happiness, warmth and peace of heart. And... I do the Pinky Swear, haha. Do you know that 'lol' means fun?It came from our language most probably?I am spe
The new year has come to us and I really hope we can become pen pals?
First of all I'd like to wish you and your family a happy year!!
I had hoped to see some answer from you; but I am sure it will come. :) Yesterday I went to celebrate New Year at my mother's aparment, in our capital, Brussels. My oldest brother Paul wasn't there as he and his whole family lives in Auwtralia. We were there with my younger brother Johan, a dr, and my sis Joke (=Yoke). Mom became lately 90, but she still is an ernergetic person.
Tell me about your family, thurl?
Well, once we can talk, all will be going easier, I guess.
just a note, SAH - I found her posts in 3 places - one of whom she knows - or at least has communicated with in prior years. She obviously has some issues :) As far as admin - I don't know what is going on lately- seems to take weeks to get messages sent on. Maybe they need help? Anyway - just my 2 cents
I'm speechless as well. Where is an admin/monitor when this stuff goes to this level? Is this what BetweentheBars intended? Please know this is seriously undermining the intent of this blog (IMO). I'm disappointed in the unprofessional management (or neglect...not sure which) demonstrated in allowing these repeated posts. My dissatisfaction is not important - but may be important to inmates who are attempting to use this blog as a lifeline and to communicate with the outside world. Not much chance of that with recent posted activity. smh
