"And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair". --Kahlil Gibran
“The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.” - Thomas Merton
"You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you odd." - Flannery O'Connor
"Madam, you have a small garden." - Lady Catherine from "Pride & Prejuidice"
"In any man who dies there with him
his first snow and kiss and fight.
It goes with him.
They are left books and bridges
and painted canvas and machinery.
Whose fate is to survive.
But what has gone is also not nothing:
by the rule of the game something has gone.
Not people die but worlds die in them."
-Yevgeny Yevtushenko

I Go By Ways of Rust and Flame by Byron Herbert Reece
I go by ways of rust and flame
Beneath the bent and lonely sky;
Behind me on the ways I came
I see the hedges lying bare,
But neither question nor reply.
A solitary thing am I
Upon the roads of rust and flame
That thin at sunset to the air.
I call upon no word nor name
And neither question nor reply
But walk alone as all men must
Upon the roads of flame and rust.
Gleamchaser ... :o) Just slidin thru to show some of that GOOD luv while I got some time. Hope all ur dreams and wishes come true Boo. Don't be a stranger aight? Keep your head up and above all Do U... cause u KNOW I'mADoMe.
Sweet words are easy to say, Sweet things are easy 2 buy, But sweet people are difficult to find Life ends when U stop dreaming, Hope ends when U stop believing, Love ends when U stop caring, Friendship ends when U stop sharing. So share this with whom ever U consider a friend. To love without condition, To talk without intention, To give without reason, And to care without expectation is the heart of a true friend... Forward this to all the people whom U consider as your true friend. Dont forget to send it back to ME ..... If U Care........ Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile. Send to all the people you love or don't want to lose in 2009, even me.... If you get 3 back, you are a great friend
