Go Ahead

Go ahead --
plan to spend your life pondering
the big questions, but I tell you,
after a while you won't care about
what's to come anymore. You'll outlive
too many people, and too many pets.
You'll reach an age which, ages ago,
you thought unthinkable,
and it won't even be a number
others consider very old. But they
don't know about the heart.
With every dear one you lose,
a portion of your heart goes, too.
This is the reason behind death
'of natural causes.' One can only
lose so many pieces of the heart
before it can no longer go on.

I absolutely love this!!!!!
You often speak my mind in the best of ways.
More and more I am able to let reality be real- and even live there.
It is not such a bad place after all.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!

ONLY WHEN GOD SAYS ITS OVER...IS IT OVER. THE WORD SAYS, '...WHEN WE ARE WEAK...THEN...'HE' IS STRONG...' I KNOW TO BE TRUE BECAUSE 'MY' STRENGTH, 'MY' WILL EVAPORATED YEARS AGO BUT, I GO ON FROM DAY TO DAY BECAUSE 'HE' CARRIES ME. THUS, I DO WHAT 'HE' ALLOWS...NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS. THERE IS A SONG THAT GOES LIKE THIS, 'BECAUSE HE LIVES, I CAN FACE TOMORROW, BECAUSE HE LIVES, ALL FEAR IS GONE, BECAUSE I KNOW HE HOLDS THE FUTURE...LIFE IS WORTH THE LIVING JUST BECAUSE...'HE' LIVES. AND SO I DO...'GO AHEAD', BUT WITH THE ADDED EXPLETIVE...'IF GOD ALLOWS'. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
