REMEMBERED JOY

Don't grieve for me,  for now I'm free!
I follow the plan God laid for me.
I saw His Face, I heard His call,
I took His hand and left it all...
I could not stay another day,
To love, to laugh, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
And if my parting has left a void,
Then filled it with remembered joy.
A friendship share, a laugh, a kiss...
Ah yes, these things I, too, shall miss.
My life's been full, I've savoured much,
Good times, good friends, a-loved one's touch
Perhaps my time seemed all to brief
Don't shorten yours with undue grief
Be not burdened with tears of sorrow
Enjoy the sunshine of the morrow

APACHE Blessing

May the sun
Bring you new energy by day

May the moon
Softly restore you by night

May the rain
Wash away your worries

May the breeze
Blow new strength into your being

May you walk
Gently through the world and know
It's beauty all the days of your life.

I LOVE YOU

" I love you " means....
that I accept you for the person that you are
and that I do not wish to change you into someone else


It means that I do not expect perfection from you
-just as you do not expect it from me-


It means that I will love you and stand by you
even though the worse of times


It means loving you when you are in a bad mood
or too tired to do the things I want to do


It means loving you when you are down
-not just when you are fun to be with-


I love you means that I know your deepest secrets
and do not judge you for them
-asking in return only that you do not judge you for them-


It means that I care enough to fight for what we have
and that I love enough not to let go


It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, 
wanting and needing you constantly,
and hoping that you feel the same way for me

HE AND I

He and I
When words run dry,
he does not try,
nor do I.


We are on par.


He just is,
I just am,
and we just are
