Sitting quietly
in the midst of her possessions
she thought of him and asked herself
what are all these worth, if
she were to lose him

Can even one of
these things return to her
the love that he shows to her so freely
in every way possible
that he can

He shows to her his love
in every action he makes, every
word he utters to her, in every touch he
gives to her, he shows and speaks
to her, his love

Will she keep
delaying the full commitment
until she has lost the person who loves
her more than she has ever been
loved before by anyone

Will she lose the one person
she has loved more than she has
ever loved any man before, she wonders
while sitting quietly in the midst
of her possessions

Sometimes we just have to follow our intuition (it's a far more reliable indicator than our hearts) and then take that leap of faith. Our guts don't lie, but our hearts can...

Warm hugs for a warm heart,
Linda

Yeah, Linda, you're right. My heart's lied before.
But what if your intuition and your heart agree, but
you're still afraid to take the leap of faith?
Thank you, friend, for your reply.  
Hugs,
Ethel

Well, my dearest sweet Ethel, what is the worse that could happen? With God, all things are possible,  and all roads lead to Him. The plus factor, is Gary believes, too. What more could you want. So rare, that combination!

Whatever you do, you have my heartfelt love and caring.  Smiles, Pat

*smile* A wonderful poem, and being rather inexperienced, I can only say I hope all goes well.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Ethel, I had these feelings for so long too and I feared so much Joanna would lose faith in me and the fact was she loved someone else for so long and never told me so I had every right to be scared! (wipes tears) This is very emotionally honest, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Decision, decisions...
can you live without your possessions?
Can you live without him?

Some questions are so personal...
I wish you the best...

but you knew that!

Fear should never get in the way of true love.
Sometimes you have to go for it!
