"A DOORWAY TO HEARTS" begins with the encounter of young Trent Walker and Lakota child Blazing Star at the Missouri Riverbank. They form a swift bond that grows throghout the years, but is threatened to be destroyed by extreme prejudice, betrayal, the Battles of Rosebud and Bighorn, and more. Following their hearts and capturing their mutual dream of unity between their races doesn't come easily and without extravagant prices to be paid, leaving both to wonder if their bond is powerful enough to survive such hardships.
An Indian! A real, honest to goodness Indian...the first thoughts young Trent Walker had when first encountering the arrogant Lakota child Blazing Star on the Missouri riverbank. After a brief exchange of words, the two rapidly discover they have much in common and become secretive friends due to the differences between their people. As they mature into adults, Trent and Blazing Star find that their dream of mutual peace is threatened by extreme prejudice, betrayal, and numerous other obstacles. Following their hearts becomes more difficult, and their dream more elusive. Can even a camaraderie as powerful as theirs survice such ordeals, or will it be severed?

Today was a day I'll never forget. My BP soared last night, and the sister I love with all of my heart, body, and soul saw me through it. She phoned me several times since early this morning to check up on me. Her love is genuine and priceless. If that wasn't enough, she sent me a gorgeous gift basket filled with fresh fruits, cheeses, and other things just to make sure I started eating healthier. kelly1202, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART!  Thank you for everything, darlin. You'll never know how much I adore you!!!  You're an Angel in every sense of the word!

| Everyone needs a little support at one point in their life, and I was blessed with an abundance of it the past couple of days. I won't go into detail, only that my heart was breaking, and that a couple of very special Earth Angels alleviated some of the pain. kelly1202, and simply_complex lifted my spirits; a huge reminder of what genuine love and friendship....family, is all about. God bless the two of you and all of my other sisters and friends I know would have been there for me if I had told them. You hold very special places in my heart and soul, and are dearly and deeply loved. |

WDC is a positive community that should be respected and treated as such at all times depite what some may think. It's a haven for serious writers. I couldn't be more thankful for the genuine friends and fellow writers made here. It's beautiful people like kelly1202, COUNTRYMOM-JUST REMEMBER ME   ; ♥Hooves♥  ; Tornado Day  , MDuci ; lureeasygoer, monty31802; williampadgett, raeni GabriellaR45 , larryp, Humming Bird  , and so many others that make WDC such an outstanding community. I could make a list a mile long of others on the site who I've been blessed in coming to know and love. These individuals have become like family to me, and I couldn't love and cherish them more. Sure I've crossed others that don't seem to share my sentiments about the community, but nevertheless, I don't let them sway how I feel. I just chalk up the bad ones to live and learn experiences. Van Halen says it best..."You've got to roll with the punches, and get to what's real." To me, WDC is the greatest!

I've been having a blast with my two grandsons. They're both adorable. The oldest is a Grandma's boy, and showers me with slobbery kisses.  Every moment spent with them is precious. |

It's amazing how some don't know the difference between facts and fiction. Fact....meaning reality. Fiction...meaning something untrue.
I was slapped in the face with a harsh reality several days ago, along with many others here. I blame myself for being drawn into the pretense, although won't deny how hurt and betrayed I feel. I'm sure the others feel that way too. Maybe my ideas of genuine friendship are different from others. I believe it takes honesty and compassion to nurture a relationship, and can truthfully say I would NEVER deceive a friend. But I've learned a valuable lesson from this experience. That being to carefully guard myself from something like this again. Hurt, yes. Played for a fool again...NO WAY!
Knowing fact from fiction should be considered before fingers are pointed. So many have been hurt because of this pretense. Why anyone would do such a thing is beyond me. WDC is a wonderful site, and its community great. That's fact.

My daughter had her baby on June 16th, and he's adorable. We were blessed with a healthy grandson again, and I thank God for that.
I'm having some major doubts lately....ones I won't go into, but are there nevertheless. Trust is becoming a major issue, and I find myself wondering if I'm too damned gullible. It's like I'm being sent strong signals to watch my back, and I intend to do so. That's all I can say due to the issues being personal ones. I've just got some serious thinking to do. I'm willing to take the good with the bad. Hell, that's part of life. Still I can't help wondering why I'm in doubt. Oh well. Since writing is my life and fills a lot of my time, there's always that escape. |

| I've been very busy with my editor, but feel better than I have in a while. Lying low has done me a great deal of good. It's given me time to think about a lot of things, and to find peace. My daughter's due to have her baby next weekend. That is, if the baby decided it wants to come then. We'll know more after her doctor's appointment Monday. |
| |
| A very dear friend gave me some sound advice today. That's blessing one. After we finished talking, I sat back and did some heavy deliberating. What it all boils down to is this. I've so many things to be thankful for, why look beyond that? I also made another good friend here today. Blessing two. On top of all of the others, I've never felt more blessed. |
| |
| I've been so busy with my editor the past several weeks. This is always the hardest part, but the outcome is usually worth the time. I'm feeling much better than I was the last time I posted an entry. I have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow morning, and am hoping he can do something to prevent another attack. I know I'll have my ups and downs. It's power for the course. Other than commitments made to my dear friends here, I intend to lay low for a while still. Just when I think I've got it all figured out, I find that something else comes up and bites me in the ass. But that's neither here nor there. I'm blessed in so many ways, and refuse to let the bad things overpower the good. |

I'm having a bad night tonight. My BP'S up again.  I can feel my Earth Angels and sisters beside me. Unfortunately, my daughter has to work tonight. She always helps me through times like this. I've got so much to live for, but I'm scared! Faith! I've got that to cling to. |
| |
| I've decided to lay low for a while due to my hectic schedule and some doubts I've been having. I need some time to think, and what better way to do so than to bow out for a bit? |

I've been in a state of shock since then. I can't thank the SM and everyone else for their confidence and support. I also want to thank my dear friend for this sig. She made it when she noticed my case had changed to blue.
