Someone who cares |

Someone who cares Your broken heart is still beating strong for you with the same strength and courage you always knew. To your heart will you be true? Sadness and pain are not the only emotions your heart wants to share with you. Imagine that healing and loving are all around. If you reach out with your heart someone who cares can be found. Let not the pain keep your heart away from the happiness it will surely find someday. Keep in mind that after the pain always comes healing and healing is a desirable and precious feeling. And after the healing new possibilities for love and romance will live again in a heart that is willing. My words are sure to be true. When you are ready to let go of the pain I know that happiness is waiting for you. Jameslee@August28,2000 Wrote this for a friend that is experiencing the pain of a divorce to encourage her to look forward into the future for the healing and happiness that awaits her after the pain. I'm afraid the stress is affecting her health. We all deserve happiness. [This message has been edited by jmlee12345 (edited 08-29-2000).] |

James, I admire you for being such a caring friend. Your words are tender and encouraging, and have moved me as well, as it is often so difficult to firmly believe that the light will shine once again. Thank you for this illuminating message. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

You have just touched my heart so very much. My divorce has just about destroyed me and in a time when I'm am gathering courage, your words have given me just that. Alittle more courage goes a long way. Beautiful post. |

James, This heartflet poem is such a good way to tell someone you care about what's happening to them. It seems that so many other people(myself included) were blessed through reading your work. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
