Somehow it is that my books are filled with pages of you and agonies but it doesn’t matter anymore I did not give way to those things that would crush my spirit So while I hurt and ache and grieve and count my bruises I acknowledge what is good about me and worth keeping Something stopped me from giving it all away It wasn’t easy as I plodded along from day to day calling out weak and fearful pleas for guidance Somehow I held myself up and now my life has changed No longer will I cling to the things that kept me stuck closed untouchable unreachable I know what to give myself and you can’t have it |

You have come to the best conclusion. Indeed we can't possess each other anyway. We can just love. Very nicely sad. Love, Margherita |

(smiles) Yay! As they say, "True happiness comes from you!" and begins there, and there you can spread happiness from your smile! (big angel hugs) We can all love one another but it doesn't mean we can possess one another, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rubillam, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you But if the bright lights don't receive you You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20 |

It sounds as if you've balanced everything out and are comfortable with your decision, and that should give you added strength. peaceful wishes for you |
