~ By Sue ~ To find happiness through someone else Is not one you should thrive on Because it is not one that will last When that person has up and left you The happiness you had with them Is taken with them when they leave Look for the contentment inside yourself It is one that will always be there No matter where you may end up being The joy that you find inside your heart Is one you can always take with you Even when your life is turned upside down And, if you ever should have a friend Who may be going through what you went through You can share the joy you found inside your own heart 3-14-03 |

Joy should always be shared...and that you are finding yours, and bringing it to us...is contentment, indeed... ![]() |

A wave of contentment washed over me as I read your meaningful and lovely words. You are so special--and I am very happy for the peace that you are finding in your life. You deserve to be happy, fulfilled and enjoying your well-earned sense of contentment. ![]() Huggums darlin', Linda |

Sue, this is so very true. If you find contentment within yourself, then you can truly be content. You are right, too...when you learn to live with what you've been true, you can have a closer bond with someone who has been through similar situations. You understand each other better. What makes it double great is if the two "best friends" happen to eventually fall in love!!!! I'm so glad that you're feeling better!! Are you liking your job? I hope so. ![]() Heart hugs to you, Lady ![]() Ethel |
