| The Friends we meet Online The true friends who we meet online Are a very special kind They pierce your shields and see within The corners of your mind. They're always there when you're in need With their power to discern. They feel your pain..... They offer hope and genuine concern. We bare our souls, expose our hearts And show our inner fears And then before you know it The keyboard's stained with tears. And if we could see them through that screen Then no one could deny That to be a TRUE online friend They too must cry. ~Unknown~ |
| ~My Cyber Friends~ I haven't ever seen you, But I know you're really there; I click you into reality Like magic from the air. Your voice is like an angel, Though I really do not hear; Your hug as warm as any Of loved ones I hold dear. You're always there for comfort, Or a word of cheer; Though you are very far away, I always have you near. You're a very special friend, Like none I've ever known; As long as you're in cyberspace I'll never be alone...... (author unknown) |
| SHARING When we share laughter, There's twice the fun; When we share success, We surpassed what we've done. When we share problems, There's half the pain; When we share tears, A rainbow follows rain. When we share dreams, They become more real; When we share secrets, Our hearts we reveal. If we share a smile, That's when our love shows; If we share a hug, It's when our love grows. If we share with someone On whom we depend, That person is always Our family or friend. And what draws us closer And makes us all care, Is not what we have, But the things that we share ~Author unknown~ |
| HEAVEN'S VERY SPECIAL CHILD A meeting was held quite far from earth. "It's time again for another birth," Said the Angels to the Lord above, "This special child will need much love. His progress may seem very slow Accomplishments he may not show And he'll require extra care From the folks he meets way down there. He may not run or laugh or play His thoughts may seem quite far away In many ways he won't adapt, And he'll be known as handicapped. So let's be careful where he's sent We want his life to be content. Please, Lord, find the parents who Will do a special job for You. They will not realize right away The leading role they're asked to play But with this child sent from above Comes stronger faith and richer love. And soon they'll know the privilege given In caring for this gift from Heaven Their precious charge, so meek and mild Is Heaven's very special child." ~God makes no mistakes~ ~Author Unknown~ |
| IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER I would have talked less and listened more. I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained and the sofa faded. I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace. I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth. I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed. I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage. I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains. I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and more while watching life. I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband. I I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day. I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn't show soil or was guaranteed to last a lifetime. Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle. When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, "Later. Now go get washed up for dinner." There would have been more "I love yous". more "I'm sorrys"... but mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute...look at it and really see it... live it...and never give it back. |
| IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep. If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day. If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you would KNOW I do. If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away. For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything right. There will always be another day to say our "I love you's", And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do's?" But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight. So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day, That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear, Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear, Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's okay" And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today. --Author Unknown |
