Friendship...
*I Shall Not Judge* *Nay, I will never sit on you in judgement* *when you need to read your sins out loud* *My spirit�s soul is not so damn perfect* *that I would dare to stand so proud* *Do you think that I am spotless and sin-free* *I won�t tell you that I�ve done no wrong* *No, you�ve only known my outside vanity* *believe me I am not so pure and strong* *You think you need from me my blessing* *that implies authority in my hand* *Only one can grant that, this I have been told* *he sits high above, no longer of this land* *Nay, I can offer only words of care* *a flashlight when you fear the night* *A shoulder to rest your tired mind* *�and my hand for you to hold on tight.*

You are so right about the only real judge is looking down on us. But is feels so good to have someone to lean on and listen. There is so much feeling in this poem. Karen

I like this and think about saying the same thing but you put it so well. This is the true measure of a friend.

And what a gift your friendship must be, Felix, to love a friend with this kind of solidarity and unconditionality. Just beautiful, and demonstrates the desire to serve, rather than to be served, which, sadly, so many "friendships" are about - I know to my cost. Although I am a parent, I confess to saying as much to my kids: "Look, guys, I may be your mother, but that doesn't make me any less able to muck up or any more able to judge..." it's not a position I have gained by experience or authority, but one of relational "accident" more than anything else! Therein lies a healthy respect for each other, I think, and the knowledge that "to err is to be human". I do what I can - that is the security that I give them, and they know, hopefully, that I can never sit in judgment on them - only attempt to help and guide. Like you, it sounds!! Bless you, Kate xx You ARE Huggy Bear - solid as a rock!!

Lost Dreams, Found Memories

As the years ahead become fewer than the ones we left behind the mind and imagination sometimes turn dark... <br>

Just Another Old Sailor

Sometimes I am actually glad my years on this planet are winding down. I lived in the best of years but see this old world slowly and at times not so

not so great again

<br>Just in a reflective mood...

Towards the Ending

When Your Memories Visit

How Could You Let Us Fade Away?

It is hard to forget a dance when your dance partner won't leave your heart... <br>

Our Forgotten Dance

As humans the ability to forget is often as strong as the ability to love.
