To love someone more than self is what true love is Wanting the best for the other person Unselfish Love Even if it may not be what you want But you, knowing what you want at the very moment may not be the best for you both as a couple Therefore, you try to convince him that much thought of the many circumstances should be taken into consideration Not diving into the thing quickly desperately trying not to make past mistakes all over again Knowing in your heart that this can not happen For even though circumstances may be similar he is totally different Because you finally realize that he loves you in exactly the same way as you love him Happiness and everlasting love is what should come about from an Unselfish Love If only we could be sure beyond a shadow of a doubt IF only [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-28-2003 12:14 AM).] |

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Ethel, I too wish I could have a glimpse of eternity if ever for a split second to reassure me that time will coem for me and for all of us! (sigh) It is so difficult to be loved in return when you love someone to the fullest, I've learned that, I hope this love you have forever lasts true, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

Yes, Noah, as hard as I fight against them, the thoughts of the past still come to mind at times. I've noticed, though, that it's mostly when I'm not feeling very well physically and can't do the things that I want to do to keep my mind occupied. These are the times that those old fears and doubts start creeping back into my mind, then those thoughts don't help me physically or mentally.......  Heart Hugs, Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-27-2003 12:47 PM).] |

Yes, Seymour...wouldn't it be wonderul if we could see what the future holds? But then, it might upset me so bad that I'd have a heart attack, or something. Thanks and hugs, Ethel |

Sudhir, Thank you very much. I appreciate that... . . . Michele, I know. Love is very complicated, sometimes. Gary says they wrote the Travis Tritt song "Strong Enough To Be Your Man" just for him, because the words to it fit me perfectly. Like I've said before, I sure am glad that he's so patient with me, because I do have a lot of different moods. Thank you, Lady.... . . Heart hugs to you both, Ethel |

ethel, this poem captures the way that I feel. I always put my girlfriend first and I never even considered myself, but for some reason she still decided to leave me. I wish she could know how much I truly loved her. |
