Hi Khoa,

I am glad to see you post again. Hopefully you are feeling better
today...at least more so than yesterday. I was thinking about you
and wondered if you had practiced the making of the prayer flags that
Catherine suggested. The reason I ask, is that I suppose that other
teens may well be struggling in similar ways as you to make some
sense intellectually and emotionally of what transpired Tuesday.
Just a suggestion. If you found making the prayer flags helpful,
maybe it is something you can suggest at school to a counselor or
teacher as an exercise that would be helpful to other students
interested in participating. It would be a way to share what helped
you with others...and the reaching out to help others is one of the
most effective ways to deal with some of what you are experiencing.
This is just a suggestion and if you are not interested should just
be ingored as something not appropriate for you right now. If it is
something you would be interested in doing, you might type or write
up the directions for making the prayer flag, the purpose and what
should be done with it afterwards so that the teacher or counselor
can present it to the principal for approval if that is necessary.
It could also be called a prayer/meditation flag...anything that will
make it something compatible with the value system of a lot of people
and not exclude anyone...if possible.

I was just thinking about you and wanted to know how you were getting
along today. Take care and know you are blessed.

Maureen
