In sorrow

"Sorrow is better than laughter, because a sad face is good for the heart."
NIV Ecclesiastes 7:3

Sorrow sews such soft sad angry sweetness
As deepest depths make tallest oceans swells
Winds of change blow strains in all completeness
All forces work to build a higher gel.

Today I say to you, I so love you
And you may say today, you so love me
Tomorrow one of us may bid adieu
Leave a loved one in sad cold misery.

Needing to walk alone with bitter ease
And there's no way a soul can ever know
I'll love you ev'ry moment as you please
But when God calls dear, one of us must go.

But we will always have our golden thoughts
To carry on winds of eternity
For nothing can erase pure love that's bought
With strength beyond all land and skies and seas,

For God shows us a way to fall in love
Two spirits fused in starlight from above.

In sorrow,

Sometimes we just need to force ease when we feel bitter. Make it happen.

(sigh) This is soooooooo emotionally powerful, sweet friend, I too agree that to feel sorrow is an important feeling because we learn to grow stronger from all the tears and then the rewwards of happiness will only be better through all the sorrow we first feel! (big hugggsssssss) This is absolutely wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Newell, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
