Cluciano, i have a huge amount of faith and i still have a very hard time finding any comfort now. i believe Celina has gone back from where she came and imo that is from God, so she is fine, but the evil that is killing more and more babies every day is still here with us and there is no comfort what so ever in that.
i tried to expect a different outcome, but i couldn't. i just had a feeling.
You know, life is beautiful. At least to me it is. I love the world, nature, people (for the most part) and especially the animals. Celina did not get to enjoy many years on the planet. That is not fair. Yes, heaven is free from evil and pain and sorrow (I think) but it's not the same kind of existence and we who remain here cannot really imagine what life after death may be like. Also, many are not sure if there is life after death at all.
But we know that Celina no longer suffers. We also know that she no longer lives here and doesn't get to live through all the things people normally do. I think she went through something horrible and that is what upsets most of us so much, but I must say that from what I understand, in the time of dying her kind of death, adrenaline may be at play and the mind is not in fear or horror, but rather, single-mindedly thinking about survival and finally, peacefully fading to black. In other words, unless she was tortured to death, Celina likely did not suffer too much.
Still, in the end, none of it is fair. And while Celina's life has been robbed, the one's who are truly suffering are those of us left behind who are mourning her loss, especially her family and friends. And those of us who are able, will picture her at peace, playing and feeling wonderful, in a beautiful, lovely place.
I must not be with it but I don't see anything "sexual" about that picture of her in the hat not smiling. Just a cute kid posing? Might be just me though.
I agree. It's just that in that photo, we can see how beautiful the adult Celina would have been, so we may see the photo as more adult. She's not the awkward little adolescent there with crooked teeth and knobby knees. She's gorgeous.
I'll say it....it is wrong and irresponsible of her mother to allow her 11 yr. old to be messing around on FB. Actually, started it when she was 10? It isn't cute or amusing or innocent. I'm amazed and dismayed at the number of people who readily admit that their young girls have FB accts. Brag about it practically. Why?? Does it make them popular?? Really?? We live in a very dangerous world. For the life of me, I can't understand a parent willingly wanting their child to be exposed to that danger. Sad
I agree, 100%. There is no reason, IMO for kids to be on the internet unless they are researching under the direct supervision of an adult. I'm sick of hearing that this is just how things are today. It's not, if we, as a society, say "no."
That being said, we'll have to see if the internet played a part in this tragedy but either way, little Celina should not have been on it. :twocents:
It's not your post, trust me, but I get so upset when folks say "she's in a better place now". She never had a chance to experience life, her first prom, marriage, her first baby, or even a grandchild. How do we know she's in a better place.
