Forward

"Life is the first gift,
love is the second,
and
understanding the third."

Sometimes, we wonder why friends keep forwarding mails to us without writing a single word
maybe this could explain why

When you have nothing to say,
Still want to keep contact,
Guess what you do,
You forward mails.

When you have something to say,
But don't know what,
But don't know how,
Guess what you do,
You forward mails.

When you have something to say,
But don't know why,
Guess What you do,
You forward mails.

When you are still wanted,
When you are still remembered,
When you are still important,
When you are still loved,
When you are still cared,
Guess what you get,

A forwarded Mail.

So dear friends,
next time if I forward u a mail,
don't think that I have only sent u a mail,
but I've remembered you in my heart :):)

Thank you, Dubya..It has taken so long to find a recommended handyman and get him here! He got sick and so was delayed another week..
Hoping he will be back tomorrow!

Hope all is well with you.

Today is a sad day for me....

As I listened to “I Surrender All”, this morning I wept. I thought of the phone call I got yesterday from an old dear friend, whom I haven’t spoken with for a long, long time.

She was left nearly dibilitated after back surgery and removal of a large portion of her lower intestine. During her illness, her husband (of over 25 years) left her for a much younger, healthier female. He left her destitute.

She is now living in her car, and is given a mere $108 a month in food stamps. She is too old (and weak) to get a job, and too young for Medicare.

I pray that she “Surrenders ALL” and can pull through the ‘rocky road’ she is on, and be strong and proud, once again.

If anyone reads this, would you just say a little prayer for Mary? (The Lord will know who she is.) Thank you.

The Power of a
(((Hug)))
There's something in a simple hug
That always warms the heart;
It welcomes us back home
And makes it easier to part.
A hug's the way to share the joy
And sad times we go through,
Or just a way for friends to say
They like you 'cuz you're you.
Hugs are meant for anyone
For whom we really care-
From your grandma to your neighbor,
Or a cuddly teddy bear.
A hug is an amazing thing--
It's just the perfect way
To show the love we're feeling
But can't find the words to say.
It's funny how a little hug
Makes everyone feel good;
In every place and language,
It's always understood.
And hugs don't need equipment,
Special batteries, or parts--
Just open up your arms
And open up your hearts.
