Before The Last Day

I wondered why love hurt so much
so I read a book that was titled
"If It Hurts It Isn't Love" and  
I understood love a little better.

I wondered why love hurt so much
so I read the words of Buddha
saying that this earthly life is
only temporary and attachments are
temporary and those that become overly
attached can bring suffering upon themselves
and I understood love a little better.

I wondered why love hurt so much so
I read words from the Holy Bible saying
"That God so loved the world that he gave
his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him shall not perish,
but have eternal life." and I understood
love a little better.

(angel friendship hugs) Your unselfish, unconditional sentiments truly have a way a touching hearts like myself, as your sensitive spirit is deserving of the most purest love in the world and that I believe there truly is a love that transcends and is everlasting that hearts that believe can achieve! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

It's been so long, at least a year since I have been here, but it is so nice you be able to read again, and I see I have missed so much. Your work is still wonderful. As it always was.
