[Mishmash] Fw: Fwd: Please help

[Carole]

 Got this the other day.  Makes you stop and think! 



Dearest friends,
I am writing to you to ask for your help in shedding light on a perplexing
situation I find myself contemplating. I have selected you as a group to aid
me because you have known me for many years and I value your opinion.Your
religious experiences are varied and that is important to the problem I am
faced with.
 
Over the years, we have all observed the seemingly random factors that
affect all of our lives, sometimes without apparent rhyme or reason.We have
seen some marriages dissolve over nothing and others grow stronger under
adverse conditions. We have seen fate play a role in who survives critical
illnesses and who succumbs to them.We have all seen good people suffer great
misfortunes while some people of low character thrive.In our lifetime, we
have seen Churches and Religious institutions all around the world become
revised,televised,energized and even scandalized. We are all well aware that
a higher power has control of nearly all things. 

Personally, I have stood in the doorway of a 7/11 in Dallas amid a shootout
between the police and a gunman and walked away unscathed. On a golf course,
I saw a lightning bolt strike a man dead while those of us nearby where
untouched.We all watched as Hurricane Katrina ravaged some areas of the
coast and left other nearby homes standing intact.The enormity of these
random and seemingly unfair applications of good or bad fortune is at the
core of my dilemma. 
 
I have studied sacred writings of all major religions searching for an
answer, and now I pose the question to you. 
 
I cannot fathom that the highest power in this universe could take Anna
Nicole from us and leave Hillary behind.
