I Will Be There While you are going, know that I go with you, although when you look you will not see, and you will look, I know; you’ll feel me there, and when you turn toward me I will not appear. Please, only for me, do this: When you do feel me, when you know the sense of me and cannot bear to hold your eyes away, then look to where I really am; look inward, find the place where love dwells. I will be be there. |

How deep, how high is love, It seems from your write it has no boundaries. I can only echo 1_slick_lady..."Oh my!" Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

OUTSTANDING!!!    Some women wait for something to change and nothing does, so they change themselves. |

Ed, I know that you only wrote a very few words here......but, my friend, I feel that so much more is hidden underneath these words. I really don't know what to say to make things better. Could anyone other than this person these words are written for? Then, I really don't think many words would be necessary...... Heart hugs to you, Ed...... Ethel |

Thank you! You're right! We DO have similar thoughts! I'm sure these thoughts are universal ~ also past, present and into infinity! HOWEVER, To each his/her own! We each have a unique right brain, creative way of expressing the SAME feelings. THIS. my poetic friend, is what makes us WHO we ARE! Blessings! Shirl 'Tiz feathers that make the bird - |

Ed~ I read this while I was having my party, (yea that party) no wonder why I envy you. This is exactly what it's all about. Oh and thanks for the kind gesture to my cry baby, you got that right! Loved these endearing words or yours, truly they touch~ |
