I love to write about my Love the one I adore and love with all my heart The one God has sent to me from above About the starry nights we look upon from the beautiful white beaches in the soft velvet skies The beautiful sunsets and the sunrises of a beautiful morn Of our love that we truly believe to be forevermore Never ending, with us always together About our life of love, of joy and happiness To write of our love together makes me feel better ALWAYS But...... There are past hurts that I NEED to face up to...to write about Happenings from previous times that I wish came no longer to mind And don't UNTIL I read some poem or hear some song or see some movie THEN the hurts, disappointments DARK MEMORIES of yesteryear come to mind I NEED to write of those terrible things those dark memories of yesteryear so that the scars will heal never to be remembered again NEVER again to be remembered To be forgotten FOREVER [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-04-2003 05:48 PM).] |

![]() (big hugggssssssss) Oh Ethel, I believe that in all relationships to understand and sympathize with all ones heart for another is important, as I have so much darkness in my past and much mysteries twisting in my minds attic! (sigh) This is very sincerely heartfelt, sweet friend, 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!

I love the conflict going on here, because it is so very real....where there is great love, there is also a need to purge oneself from the past. In our hearts, I think we do need that, to make room for the future. Oh, this was a wonderfully phrased write, and very, very human! Loved it!! A truly happy person is one who |

Hi Karen, ![]() Yeah, it seems sometimes there is a war going on inside, between emotions. I'm glad you enjoyed. Thanks.... ![]() . . Hi Michael, ![]() Yeah, I think you're right. Because of my past experiences, I appreciate the way my Love treats me, even more. He is so sweet... ![]() . . Love and hugs from Ethel ![]() [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-04-2003 06:44 PM).] |

Hello ![]() . . Raph, I know that most people here would understand. It's just very hard to write about things that have been pushed way down inside. I'm going to start trying more, though. Thank you.... ![]() . . Noah, That's very important. One of the many things that I love about mine and Gary's relationship is that we have become to trust each other so much that we talk about anything and everything. We have told each other things that we have never felt confident enough to confide in anyone else about. We love each other unconditionally. Thank you,...... ![]() . .

Hello Linda ![]() It's good to see you here. Friend, I know that you would understand whatever I might write about. It's just so much easier to write about the sweet, happy, loving ways of mine and Gary's love. Thank you for your friendship.... ![]() Ethel ![]() |

You've shared with all of us both your love and your conflicts. It takes great courage to show these emotions and I admire you (and your writing) greatly for it. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Ethel, alot of times those memories are hard to forget. And yes, it does help to write about them. Sometimes you have to write about them more than once to get to the point where there is no more pain. |

I enjoyed both sides of it......unfortunately.....in order for us to see the beauty.....we must also see the "ugly" in order for us to feel the good...we must also experience bad. It is in the way in which we understand and interpret them......the way in which we choose to deal with them that makes all the difference. |

Hello Sue ![]() I knew that you would understand. I wish I could write about those bad experiences the way you do. Just when I think the bad memories are gone, they pop back up again. Thanks for replying to my poem... ![]() . . Hi Lisann ![]() I'm glad that you enjoyed my poem. Yeah, sometimes I guess my way of dealing with things is to ignore them...which isn't good. Thanks for replying... ![]() . . With hugs from, Ethel ![]() [This message has been edited by garysgirl (02-04-2003 11:48 PM).] |

Cinnamongirl..... ![]() I like what you said... "the Light and the Shadow"....... sounds like a good title, doesn't it? Thank you for replying.... ![]() . . Duncan, Hi ![]() Yeah, you are right... Everyone, I guess, has more than one story. Thank you for replying to my poem... ![]() . . With hugs from Ethel ![]() |

Hi Julie ![]() Thank you. I'm really glad that you liked it. I appreciate you reading and replying. ![]() . . Hello Sea ![]() Yeah, I know. I sure do want to get rid of the bad memories and shake them completely off. I've got too many good memories in the process of being made now. I'm really glad that you liked the way I did the poem. Thank you very much... ![]() . . With hugs from Ethel ![]() |
