(sigh) Oh Bill, I know just how you feel, for many times peers of mine always want me to change, and want me to be someone else, but I always feel so unhappy when I try to impose the way they do, for I know just being yourself is the most wonderful thing to do. (sigh) As long as we stay true to what we believe in, we will find happiness in ourselves! (big hugggsssssss) Short but with such a beautiful message, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bill, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Life changes people, but we still go on, thinking that this is who we are. The people that once loved us do not want to put up with the change, not realizing that they've changed, too. Short, simple. Touching. |

Bill C. I know this feeling...I have felt it... Sometimes we all wish we could do that.. but...I never have been able to...Just have to be me... Nicely done. |

Bill dearest friend don’t ever change, you are you and that is why you are unique. If we were whom others wanted we wouldn’t be anything other than their shadow dreams. Truly outstanding writing Kid. I love it Can’t we all identify with this one? If I was someone other than me Would you stay happily? Would I hold your gaze? With a touch of amaze If I were someone other than me? If I were someone else instead Wouldn’t the me of me be dead? Would you stare with delight At my altered sight If I were someone else instead? Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Bill, I have felt this way, but it usually passes quickly, cause guess what, we are good the way we are, and if someone else disagrees, they are missing, not us. (Thats the new, strong, Sandra here) Peace |
