I chose to crawl on a different path than the one you laid out for me. Yet looking back through all the broken glass, no deep cuts remain on the surface of me, and the hidden ones are healing silently. For I have a secret, an inner strength far greater than what you did see. Though my wings were clipped at an early age, it only grounded me temporarily. It feels good to soar over turbulent seas, thanking my God for adversities. And when I feel the air lifting me up, I remember to thank God for that half-filled cup, for it could have appeared half-empty. [This message has been edited by Midnitesun (05-17-2003 06:20 PM).] |

This is very nicely done "It feels good to soar over turbulent seas, thanking my God for adversities. And when I feel the air lifting me up, I remember to thank God for that half-filled cup, for it could have appeared half-empty." I enjoyed the read very much. |

You know, only you and I know the path we need to take. It sounds like you and I have the same secret. We are stronger than anyone knows. Although, sometimes I don't feel so strong. |

 (sigh) I too wouldn't want it any other way, Jesus embraced me too and despite the many tears I've embraced, they all have made a tiara upon my soul and I will be mine! (big hugggsssssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, always be you and not nobody else, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

Kacy - sweet sister of mine . . . you are strength and this is me . . . you got me - right to the T . . . but I am humbled and elated that you wrote this for me This shows indeed what a special person you are and that you are "real" and your heart is pure . . . but we already knew that . . . I agree with Bri - completely . . . Falling feathers land from high upon silken treasures Heart and hand held fingers grasp feathers ripped tightening the grip her hold on my heart will never slip Thank you Kacy . . . I needed this and you . . . deserve a great big hug xxoo |

What words can I say that this big tear didn't say better? Anything a writer can pen that makes another person feel better is the perfect write, right? Hugs, and strong uplifting breezes to you, Littlewings. |

Kacy, this is a beautiful poem about our little Sue. As she said herself, it fits her to a T. She's a very special person, just as you are, Kacy. Hugs to you both,  Ethel |
