Erm - I could do with some help?

16:26 / 24.02.02

I've noticed a lot of positive responses when others have asked for help on this forum, and I'm in a situation where I could use all the help I can get.

I'm due in court this Wednesday to fight for custody of my son, who has been living primarily with his father for just over two years. I'll not go into the details but I'm fighting this because my son, Matthew, is unhappy where he is and wants to come to live with me.

Anyway, to get to the point, I'll be doing a bit of a ritual on Tuesday evening at about 7 p.m. to a) get the courage I'm going to need for the actual court thing, b) try and shift the odds in my favour a bit more and c) to try not to get angry and start giving Matthew's dad a hard time

So, any loving thoughts, good wishes or anything else would be hugely appreciated, both from myself and Matthew (although he won't know about it).

Good luck Indigo. I'll try and zap you some good vibs on Tuesday.

Will be thinking of you, mate. Best of luck.

Good luck.
Recently, my sister in law went trough a similar process, and it had a happy ending

If you want to stay cool during the process, try to visualize your self in the situations, and visualize yourself doing the right things. It will help a bit.

Indigo,
I will make a special prayer for you. I will pray to Durga that you will have strength in your battles and protection for your child.

O mother, who is present everywhere, who is embodiment of Universal Mother,
O mother, who is present everywhere, who is embodiment of Power and Energy,
O mother, who is present everywhere, who is embodiment of Peace,
I bow to thee, I bow to thee, I bow to thee.

Blessings to you Indigo!

Many thanks - always good to have back-up.

I'll let you know what happens (ohmygods, it's tomorrow!!!), but until then, I'll try and stay focused...

Well, I did what I set out to do, invoked Tyr and stuff... and while I was clearing away the debris, I tripped on the stairs and broke some of my stuff!! Then, after I had cleared up THAT mess, I went up to where the candles were still burning and found a puddle of melted wax and a bent out of shape candle!!

I hope Tyr's not pissed off at me!

My thoughts and prayers are with you today.
