I can see the end in sight soon there will be light instead of darkness all around a ray of hope will be found think we could be friends may help as hearts mend please consider my request as you decide what's best Let's put an end to this conflict no need for either of us to restrict what will happen tomorrow that would only bring more sorrow i think there's been enough makes it awful rough to sort out how I really feel distinguish what is real Just need some time to think you've pushed me to the brink standing on the edge of the world's highest ledge have to be careful or I will fall no one here to call will you throw me a rope offering up a ray of hope Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

Sven, Hope is all I have most days. I really do hope I get that ray....too much shared for it to be denied I think. It is not up to me. All I can to is offer....he has to accept. Thank you...

Great way of looking at a tough situation. Sometimes we all need a reminder that there's hope. DiObear (By the way, I love the song by Michael W. Smith that you quote in your signature.) |

Life holds back its mysteries, Man keeps back his emotions hidden, Offer a rope of hope to one, Soon he will be a friendly one... A great poem Lone Wolf, you should not be lone wolf anymore, I wish to part of a pack of wolves now on.... Regards, sudhir Take each day as it comes, Consider each day as a flight, Try hard to succeed and fly, Surely then you will reach some height. But if by some chance you don’t, Remember that tomorrow will always come. Learn this well and learn this hard That today’s efforts will pay for tomorrow’s fun. A Crazy Monster, a.k.a Ski |

A Ray of Hope is always there trusting yourself is the key another waits to take your hand and carve a true love destiny ~~~~~~ nice writing Lone Wolf remember, it's always darkest before the dawn. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |
