A MOTHER'S GRIEF
She carries such a heavy heart, her tears will often flow,
Seems everyone's avoiding her, seems no-one wants to know!
Her grief she carries all alone, nobody seems to care,
Or help her ease this burden, this burden she must bear.
Her son has just left her, but where, where did he go?
Why did he have to leave so soon, and will she ever know?
A mother's grief's a lonely path, she only wants her child,
For other's understanding, their love, if only mild!
To talk of her lost son, acknowledge her real pain,
To tell her life will soon be bright, she'll see her child again,
For he has gone to Heaven, an Angel up above,
Where there's no tears or dying, just great eternal love.
Try understand this mother's grief, praise God it was not you
That lost your precious, wanted child, for he was wanted too!
I Miss you Tim,,,,,Love Mom

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom---
Hannah Arendt
If you want to see the brave, look at those who can forgive. If you want to see heroic, look at those who can love in return for hatred." - Mahatma Gandhi 1869-1948
Make me an instrument of your PEACE
Where there is hatred let me know LOVE
Where there is doubt, FAITH
Where there is despair,HOPE
And where there is sadness,JOY.....
Prayer for Peace
"I can forgive, but I cannot forget" is only another way of saying, "I will not forgive." Forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note-torn in two and burned up so that it never can be shown against one.
- Henry Ward Beecher
As long as you don't forgive, who and whatever it is will occupy a rent-free space in your mind.
- Isabelle Holland
There is no wealth but life.
- John Ruskin
Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.
- Maxim Gorky
Is there any stab as deep as wondering where and how much you failed those you loved?
- Florida Scott-Maxwell
Children begin by loving their parents. After a time they judge them. Rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.
- Oscar Wilde
Let's face it, there's lots of spoiled kids out there . . . because you can't spank Grandma.

Somehow we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.

Your emotions affect every cell in your body. Mind and body, mental and physical, are intertwined.
