Give me time Lord,
Give me time
I want to say
I'm sorry
I knew it was wrong Lord
I knew it was wrong
before I spoke
Don't want to hurt anybody
but words were spoken
and sometimes it just is
the wrong place, wrong time
So give me time Lord,
give me time
to say I'm sorry.
One often makes mistakes
in life
and then you hope to be forgiven
Strange... is it not,
that often those mistakes
are made to the ones
you dearly love?

Muys...

Your humble approach to say in a very
heartfelt way...asking forgiveness..
is very touching and a sign of great
personal courage and sacrifice...

If only we all approached our thoughts
as well as this..

(big huggssssss) Oh Muys, this is wonderful, sweet friend, yes, it means so so much to apologize when you feel like it so then you get to know your loved ones so much more and feel comfortable sharing things with one another! (kiss on cheek) This is lovely, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Muys, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

God always listens, Muys...
we can only hope the ones
that really need to hear,
hear as well as He does...

Ya know, Muys...I did the same thing tonight.  I kinda yelled at somebody I wasn't really mad at because I was tired and didn't think first.  I'll apologize tomorrow, god granting me the day.  Guess, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who goofs up sometimes.

Yes Muys, agree with you.  Sometimes we take our loved ones for granted.

No, dear you are not the only  one.  It does seem we hurt the one we love the most the hurt...unthinking and putting foot to mouth.
Let this person read your poem.
Life is a journey...we all mess up...the goal is to get up and go again, hopefully better for our mistake as it was a learning experience of just what words can do.

Often times the old saying that we hurt the ones we love is true, but I truly believe that the circle of love encompasses forgiveness always.  This is beautiful Muys, you are a treasure to have among us.

Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal.
