More Than Just The Sometimes |

Sometimes when things are weighing heavy on my mind it is then that I turn to you, because there truly are those times when I no longer know what to do. Sometimes my mind feels so jumbled and there is so much inside to share again I come to you with all of my doubts and fears to bare. Sometimes you sit quietly listening with patience you try to understand, when the tears are rolling down my face your always there to hold my hand. Sometimes when the darkness would consume me you are the light that's helping me to mend, for you are more than just the sometimes; in you I have found my forever friend. I know that you can 'read' me but can you 'hear' "me"? [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (12-30-2002 01:26 PM).] |

Donna, this is so special and touching. We all need a forever friend that we can depend on and lean on; no matter the circumstances. Hugs and Happy New Year, Marti |

Thanks everyone. Whats nice to realize is that if we take the time to look deep enough, we all have a forever friend, in ourselves. Hugs all. |

Such a loving poem, Donna. Yes, I agree that we need to be our own friend, too.... As I always say, how can we love others if we don't love ourselves? "Love makes the world go around" |

Don't we all want a friend like that, Donna. This is such a heartfelt tribute. The stars will shine when I am gone, |

This is beautiful. And we do all need a friend in ourselves. Hard to find sometimes, though. Happy New YEar Sandra |

I wanted to pop in quickly and thank everyone. Things are extremely busy for me at the moment with year end responsibilities at work which highly limits my time right now to be here. Friendship comes in many forms, be it that you are friends with yourself, if you have someone special who you can call a friend in every meaning of the word, or even if your best friend is whatever God or Spirit you might have in your life...... but I truly believe that if we care for ourselves enough, we are never alone.... enough rambling already! May all of your New years be blessed with many friends, and much laughter and love. Hugs to all! |
