      ~ Heartfelt Thoughts ~

We came from love and we are going to love
on the journey of life we will encounter sorrow
suffering , pain , loss
But we don't want to make them our friends
Because the heart wants to be free
to love , to enjoy , to feel gratitude
to feel thankful for life itself
on whatever terms it is given to us
each day that we have it
we don't own life, it has always been a gift
We see in the end we don't own anything or anybody
They just pass through our lives
The big things we don't control
only the piddly little things
Human creatures being humbled by life
Our heart is our best friend
Because it is the source of joy , of love , appreciation
of hope that we can find our way back home
into the love where we came from

and Janice ...................

one day, some day, these beautiful thoughts

themselves the gift of Gifts from the Beloved .............

lead us to the door of the Beloved yearningly awaiting our coming ......

and as at the Beloved's door, we shyly , hesitatingly , falter

the Beloved walks the last steps to take us in His embrace .................AH !
