Yesterday "I felt the earth move under my feet" surprising me that I didn't cave in to the negative, as I had so many days before. Maybe having to walk through all those gray areas of my life and the dreariness of nature's wrath on us this Spring, made the sun's shining all the more meaningful. There are so many levels of friendships in life and this for a friend... and each gives what they have inside to give, nothing more, nothing less, and acceptance is the key to contentment. Still we strive for more, always wanting, always feeling the need to feel needed and wanted. Never realizing that what we have is precious and although it may be "few" it is there, a treasure unto each to behold. My sermon for the day~~~ M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

M, Isn't the title and the first line from some songs I know? And you are so right. But the you are always are. I know you just need a man to tell you that once in a while, right? If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. [This message has been edited by Larry C (06-24-2003 03:49 PM).] |

yes Larry you are correct although it was the first line that were the words that came to my mind...and if you paid attention I squeezed one more in there (the precious and few) I wasn't going to post today (have lots of cleaning to do to ready for company) but I was reading a bit and thought "What a Beautiful day this is" and wanted to share with a friend or two. And if you were the only man to say so today, I would smile and be thankful. many hugs for being here, there or ... M |

"Still we strive for more, always wanting, always feeling the need to feel needed and wanted." No. I am learning to be content with what God has given me, as you have. Keep preaching “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |
