~ By Sue ~ Sometimes I think it is too tough To live in this world without love I struggle through this world each day Trying to make the good things stay Memories of all the good times Keep running through my mind As if they happened yesterday But they just did not stay With each and every passing day I wonder if there is a way To ease the pain I feel So my heart can begin to heal Forgiveness I do try to give To have a better life to live Hanging onto the belief That someday I will feel relief Then with my life I can go on With a place I can call my own No worries will I ever have Of ever having to relive my past 10-12-02 |

  (sigh) Yes, and forgiveness does take time and validity to obtain, but I know with your golden heart you will get through this and again you will be refreshed and true joy and comfort will be with you! (big hugggsssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Sue~ You will survive this because you are a strong person with many friends to turn to for support. Each new day brings you new challenges, but it also brings you rewards. Paul |

As they say, (whoever "they" are!), "What doesn't break us, makes us stronger!" I do believe that's true---and Sue, you are getting stronger! I wish you saw all the beauty in you that is evidenced in your writing. As one loves his/her self, there is already somebody loving you--and that's you! When we are able to let go of painful memories, it frees us up to make wonderful new ones. I have found that by keeping myself busy, appreciating myself and the person that I am, letting go of emotional baggage, I am allowing love to find me---I do not have to go looking for it. It may not find me in the time frame that I would like, but I do believe that everything occurs in divine order and which ultimately will be for my higher good, whether it be for me to learn and grow spiritually, or for me to experience joy in my life (the latter is a whole lot more fun!) hehe I get on with the business of living and leave the rest up to the universe. I suppose that you could say that that is a very Zen approach to life and living---"going with the flow"--but it has really gotten rid of my expectations and the subsequent disappointments. Whenever anything wonderful happens, it's a wonderful and surprising gift from above. I just wanted to share some of my thoughts with you, as you have done so openly with yours. Take care, Sweet Sue!

Dear Sue, I read your poems as often as I can. I find you to be a very sensitive person. You are learning my friend and this is not easy. Life's lessons are hard but, Earth Angel is right, adversity will make you stronger. Let me sum this up and give you my advice   Hee, Hee" let's go fishing "  SG [This message has been edited by SimplyGold (10-13-2002 10:33 AM).] |
