From Eagles Sigs To still be friends Even when we do not agree on a situation Is what I think true friendship is To be able to talk without anger and discuss issues Things that happen to appear on this road of life Knowing that even if we do not agree We can still be friends having unconditional love and respect We both have our strong opinions and our own personal beliefs Can not we just agree to disagree at times We need to both realize that neither of us will ever change So we should not try to push our own beliefs on each other And to assure each other that we will always remain friends no matter what comes or goes I wish that we could talk and stay calm Even if we do have to agree to disagree AND THAT WE WILL STILL REMAIN FRIENDS |

Ethel, you wouldn't believe how often poets get on the same train... all bound for that place that only dreamers and doers go. |

Wow... I wish I had a dollar for every time I've said this. I'd be well on the way to being a very comfortable woman. Let's hope your friend sees eye to eye with your reasoning. It doesn't always turn out that way, and it's hurtful. Love, Terri~ [This message has been edited by SharaRose (10-28-2003 01:20 PM).] |

Thanks Kevin. I appreciate that. . Thank you, Linda Lou. I knew that you would. We're the type that tries to figure it all out, aren't we? . Oh yes, Terri, it is hurtful when we lose a friend. Sometimes, though, we can do all we know to do and they still won't agree to remain friends. Then, all we can do is just go on. Thanks, sweet lady. . . I appreciate all of you Hugs to each of you Ethel |

A true friend still loves you whether you always agree or not. Sometimes a friendship is strengthened by pulling the rope different directions! Great thoughts you shared, Ethel...~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~S~ |

So true, Sunny. Sometimes the differences in a friendship helps each person to grow in their wisdom and compassions for others. They start understanding things about others that they didn't realize before. Hugs to you, my friend Ethel |

seems to me you're reading my mind. unfortunately many find it quite easy to just pretend a person never existed. I battle with a desire to learn how to do that myself or to keep my heart... Great write Ethel Ya know what they say. Curiosity salted the snail. |

(smiles) Oh Ethel, I believe the magic of friendship is that we are all unique, yet we still accept and tolerate each other and celebrate the differences! (kiss on cheek) That's where harmony and peace are made, sweet friend, we may not agree on certain things but I will always love you for who you are, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
