Live Laugh Love Has loneliness ever found you While you choked back a tear, Standing under a star-studded sky No one to hold you near? Does a simple melody remind you Of someone you loved so dear? Now memories they left behind Are all that bring them near? Has a whisper ever wakened you In far off dreams you’ve dreamed? Have you turned around with a chill Feeling someone’s there it seemed? Have you ever lived a moment You felt you’ve lived before? Have you said you cared for someone, But wished that you'd said more? Did you wave and say, 'I love you' Wondering if tomorrow they’d be gone? Felt a need to call it out again, And it haunted you all night long? Déjà vu and our premonitions Unfortunately quite often do come true. Before we know it, someone is gone, And our love never did get through. Try living in the here and now Surround yourself in love, and say it! Hug, squeeze, and cuddle up, C’mon it feels good ~ go on, admit it! This life is just too darn short To worry about the little things, Lighten up; live each day to the fullest Just see all the happiness it brings. For every smile you give away, Another you will surely find. Live, laugh and love a lot, To have a life of the fullest kind. To my wonderful family with love [This message has been edited by Mysteria (05-08-2003 03:11 AM).] |

Hello Sharon Your message was so very strong and so clear and we all should live each day to the fullest. "The source of love is deep in us and we can help others realise a lot of happiness. One word, one action, one thought, can reduce another person's suffering and bring that person joy." Take care......Sue I am in motion |

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I truly believe in this becasue I had a very sad childhood when no one recognized my differences and I tried to fit in but they saw me as an alien and I know I can't go back and correct the sad days but I must grasp the future and now I know you and other people in the world who recognize who I am! (wipes tears) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sharon, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story ***Shakira*** [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (05-07-2003 11:39 PM).] |

I worry about the little things too much. Thank you for helping me realize that. +Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.+ |

Wow Mysteria This Was Amazing! I have Dijon Vu all the time... Yeah, that’s where your past memories, don’t quite cut the mustard... (?) Sorry... lol Seriously, this part of your poem: Has a whisper ever wakened you In far off dreams you’ve dreamed? Have you turned around with a chill Feeling someone’s there it seemed? I’ve had that feeling many times.. Thanks for letting me know I’m not crazy... Again, wonderful poem! Take Care, Richy |

I am delighted if any one person realized to share more of themselves and what they have with their family or others. It is simply amazing the interest you get on your time, or money when you do this. I am really very glad you enjoyed it, ~* Happy Mother's Day To All The Moms' Too *~ It seems a Mother never stops giving, and loves every minute of it! |

Well now you did it! I followed you and left my mascara somewhere in drips in the archives. Oh well, cleasing the soul is good yes? This all started because I couldn't "see her face clearly", and I felt so guilty! 50 years I should remember what side a mole was on should I? I didn't. JM can always count on you to flutter in with even such a busy life as yours. Know what? I think sometimes something may never be alright, and I can live with that. Just have to deal with the anger I harbor for the big guy I felt really let me know. Thank you sweet lady and now I am going to go find the audition day, that was my absolute favorite moment with her. Can always re-do the makeup right |
