As walking down this road of life, there are many who cross paths with us Some are loving from their hearts others aren't ever genuine at all These are always pretending to feel something they really don't Trying to be something they really aren't, never real Forever saying and doing what is false, a pretense of what is really there Acting ways they think others want them to, not how they truly feel Saying words to please, not what may be inside their heart They are false, not real, just a pretense of what really is Then there are the loving ones, so much compassion in their hearts Always helping others, genuine in what they may do, and in what they may say Never wanting to hurt or discourage people who cross their path in life Always caring and loving to those all around them Not just to please others, but from the depths of their hearts Feeling, caring, helping, loving, genuine, never false, always real I want to be ~~REAL~~ don't you?!?

I like this. There are too few, in the human race of the second kind of person you speak of. Raph (hopefully part of the latter) |

I really like this, Ethel! This is very true. So many people do pretend. I have never been very good at prtending. I would rather be real. |

Thank you, Sue. I'm glad you liked it. I'm not good at pretending, either. If I ever tried to be anything other than myself, it would be very obvious. I always just want to be myself. "Love makes the world go around" |

 (big hugggsssss) Oh Ethel, it saddens me to see so many put on by peer pressure and changing who they are and wanting to be someone they are not and never get to live a fruitful life! (sad sigh) I always wanted to be peaceful with others as a boy but many boys my own age abused me and I guess the pain has helped me to become special, for I believe I am a good boy now and want to live my life helping children and being loving to all and correcting all that is unfair! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet firned, you are REAL, I know it with all my heart as you have an angelic heart, 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..." |

Noah, I don't know what made you into a special person, but you certainly are. You are a very good friend to have. I can tell that you are REAL, too. That's the only way to be, don't you think? When someone tries to be something they aren't, it shows through. Thank you so much for being so kind in your replies, friend. "Love makes the world go around" ~~with love and hugs from Ethel~~ [This message has been edited by garysgirl (11-30-2002 11:36 PM).] |
