There are things that we never want to let go of, people we never want to leave behind. But keep in mind that letting go isn’t the end of the world; it’s the beginning of a new life.
Today I am amazed at the things our children have done and their
wide range of interests.They are all living their lives and not the
ones I would have planned for them.But I have learned that their
lives are theirs, not mine, and in living their own lives they have
given me experiences and an education I would never have had if
I’d been fool enough to make them do what I thought they should do.
We find by losing.We hold fast
by letting go.We become something
new by ceasing to be something old.
This seems to be close to the heart
of that mystery.I know no more now
than I ever did about the far side of
death as the last letting-go of all,
but now I know that I do not need
to know, and that I do not need
to be afraid of not knowing.
God knows.That is all that matters.
Letting go doesn't mean we don't care. Letting go doesn't mean we shut down.
Letting go means we stop trying to force outcomes and make people behave.
It means we give up resistance to the way things are, for the moment.
It means we stop trying to do the impossible--controlling that which
we cannot--and instead, focus on what is possible--which usually means
taking care of ourselves. And we do this in gentleness, kindness,
and love, as much as possible.

new love....
You have given me a second chance in life Sometime before you I couldn't cop with the strife You've given me that love I dreamed of forever Happiness I been united with now that we're together You've touched my heart so deeply with your gentle touch To world I will never deny that I love you so much Words can't explain how thankful I am of you You have brought my smiles to overcome my blue The moments that we have shared the memories we make I promise your heart won't shatter or even break My world has changed forever now that you are here I miss you so much when you are not near I've opened up my everything to you because I trust you The more comfortable I am with anything we go through The love you and I share has made us one whole You have made my life complete from once an empty soul You will always be the man who will stand out from the rest I'll never forget each memory that you made the best Forever in my heart honey with this love I'll always keep I'll always have you in my heart even when I'm asleep.....

life....
Trees
The acts of men sometimes come so kind and with such love do well express, yet the deeds of men sometimes come so mean and with great disgust it is well despised. These conflicts unresolved for times. Someday, somewhere resolves to meet between the times of history gone, and the evolutions of future come the present presents a balance point in a mixing grill of settlement, where deeds and events do take their toll in resolutions of investments made. Mishap could be just a fair reward, as life fortune is investment gained.
Opportunity
could be just a means, as occurrences are results obtained. The pendulum swings to and fro, just as the clock ticks, tock and tick. What goes on around and again (my friend leo used to say these..hehehe) Does come back again and around good or bad, it's all our choice, for all our thoughts and acts today, are investments in the big game plan of this unfinished business of life. Life is never ending learning…..

friends i have along the way.....
Friendship isn't always easily described. The Eskimos, they say, have a hundred different words for snow. Unfortunately, the English language isn't quite as innovative, though it has vast opportunities to differentiate meaning. Certainly, Love is one of those opportunities. And so, too, is Friendship. Instead of different words, however, we're stuck with simple adjectives. Close friend. Best friend, childhood friend, intimate friend, trusted friend, beloved friend. But whether you use adjectives or different words, few could deny the nearly infinite meaning in such a simple word. Friends are special people. We can't pick our family, and we're sorely limited in the number of them at any rate. Society and mores (and often our own conscience) dictate we select a single mate. But our friends can be as diverse and infinite as the adjectives we choose. Our friends, in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.
There are days when bubbling from us comes and the innocent child within who giggles at the little things and wears a silly grin. There are days when melancholy comes to visit for a while and the mind feels tired, the body weak and we have no strength to smile. There are days when joy abundant grabs a hold of you and me, it wraps us up in all it is splendor, lifts us up and sets us free. There are days when sorrow wraps us in its cloak of grief and fear, 'till our hearts ache to the breaking, 'till our eyes can't shed a tear. There are days when love bestows us with its wonderment and light and with its beauty and its mystery, its power and its might. And there are days when life rewards us and seems to make amends by granting us a marvelous gift the precious gift of Friends.
Rainbows created my imagination as it arched across the sky and on one end there sat you and at the other end, there sat you guys. Imagining I could slide across over the rainbow to the end there would be my pot of gold the sweet love of my dear new friends. The rainbow is a connection like a bridge from me to you guys it appears joined by sunlight then the grey skies turn to blue. Arriving after the rainstorms it became so evident to me thoughts of love follow rainbows and they arched right across the sea. A colorful arching rainbow for me it has no gate, it has no door that it reaches from friend to friend and it arches from shore to shore. I smiled up today at the sky. And how far would my loving smile go and it slid right over to the other side while the other end of the colored rainbow.
Scientists have discovered that there is one thing above all else that determines the lasting power of a friendship. It is called "the fun factor". Fun is a difficult word to define and yet we know when we are having it. It is a difficult thing to predict and yet there are some friends that we have fun with almost every time we get together. This category is for "the fun factor" in all of us.
Our friendship started a month ago. Where the days have gone I don't know, but when I think of all we've done. I stop and smile because we've had so much fun. I hope you know how much I care. It is friends like you guys who create a pair. I wish we will always be closer to share individual happiness; but near or far, I wouldn't miss all the things you have to share. I hope you know I am always here. I know it is harder being away to each other but always remember this when I say, "Our friendship is a treasure well beyond any measure. . . "
I can say that forever is a very long time. How is it that people can talk so casually about a concept that we cannot even wrap our minds around? Sometimes we have a friend and we sense that our souls are very closely connected. We know that the connection is above time and space. We know that wherever we are in our lives we will always remain friends. This is forever......

I Will Be Here
Whenever you're sad,
or feeling blue,
Just call on me.
I'll be here for you.
Whenever you're happy,
or feeling sad,
Just call on me.
You are going to be glad that you had.
'Cause I'm gonna be there
with open arms.
I'm going to be there
to bear your arms.
I may be young,
or tiny like a bug,
but when you're sad
I swear to God,
I give the biggest hugs.
So when you're lonely
or just plain blue,
Just think of me,
or this poem,
And I'll come to you.
Love you guys!!!

Always and forever
You are a part of my life in so many ways
And you I will love for the rest of my days
Time can’t change the way I feel
For I love you now
And I always will.
It seems like forever since we’ve been apart
I wish we could go back
and make a fresh start
Then if you left
I’d miss you I know
But tell you I love you
and then let you go
But the past is over
I cant change it now
I want to be with you
but I just don’t know how
So I’ll think of you always and the way it use to be
Because you are so very special to me
And you I will love for the rest of my days
Time can’t change the way I feel
For I love you now
And I always will.
It seems like forever since we’ve been apart
I wish we could go back
and make a fresh start
Then if you left
I’d miss you I know
But tell you I love you
and then let you go
But the past is over
I cant change it now
I want to be with you
but I just don’t know how
So I’ll think of you always and the way it use to be
Because you are so very special to me
me ....being remembered ....
i want to be remembered as the girl who smiles even though her heart is broken....and the one who can always brighten up your day even if she couldn't brighten her own....sad but thats me....reality strikes....
what i have learned....
"life is too short....grudges are a waste of perfect happiness...laugh when you can...apologize when you should and let go of what you can't change....love deeply and forgive quickly...take chances...give everything and have no regrets....life is too short to be unhappy....you have to take good with the bad smile when you're sad...Love what you got and always remember what you had...always forgive nut never ever forget...learn from you're mistakes...nut never ever regret...."
