The veils have lifted that misted my view, From seeing the love that flowed out of you. For I was too closed to be open and free, To accept your heart's offer that now cannot be. You folded your hand and laid down your cards, I wish I had known of your loving regards. Time has a way of revealing the truth, As age adds the wisdom that is lacking in youth. I now look at life through my heart and my soul, ~ My mind and my body weren't the sum of my whole. I'd been blind to the love being offered to me, ~ My eyes were wide open but I just didn't see. The veils have lifted that misted my view, From seeing the love that flowed out of you. For I was too closed to be open and free, To accept your heart's offer that now cannot be. |

I recently had a chance re-connection with a voice from the distant past and was literally blown away when he told me how he has loved me all these years! If I had only known that back then! ~ Mind you, my life has been played out the way it was supposed to have and I wouldn't change where it has lead me! Thank you for your warm reply. Enjoy your life's journey! Linda |

Ah, Linda - youth is often blind - it's from the years of exposure we learn, yes? Trial and error - Hugs to you this morning - Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Earth Angel It is something I have given much thought to. But if is a drift in the wind. |
