She said "Sit now quietly, come and dry those tears. God walks close beside you to calm all of your fears." These words she spoke when my skies were gray, her words lifting my spirit her sun shining over my day. These thoughts of sincere to someone special I send Thank you dear Lord for letting her be my friend. (thank you....) Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal. {on the wings of words are spirits fly...and our souls are free~me} [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (07-18-2002 12:39 PM).] |

This I think is truly touching. Your friend is very lucky to have you as well. Kudos. Life-- "Although most elements are taken from reality, some have been exagerated for dramatic clarity." |

It comes to me, Donna, that these are words returned to you as you have encircled so many and have said these very words at one time or another, to those who needed them, and what you heard, my dear, was an echo... It takes a person of a compassionate heart, such as you have, to endear yourself to so many, and they come to know you, and never intrude, until they know of or see the hurting inside... this friend of yours saw just that, and like I say...it was most likely an echo of what you have said to so many, that came back to sit in your heart...you think? Sunshiney hugs... |
