Point of View

I’ve heard it said, “Don’t go to bed
While hanging on to sorrow.
You may not have the chance to laugh
With those you love tomorrow.”
You may not mean the words you speak
When anger takes its toll.
You may regret your actions
Once you’ve lost your self control.

When you’ve lost your temper
And you’ve said some hurtful things,
Think about the heartache
That your action sometimes brings.
You’ll never get those moments back,
Such precious time to waste,
And all because of things you said
In anger and in haste.

So if you’re loving someone
And your pride has settled in,
You may not ever have the chance
To say to them again,
“I love you and I miss you
And although we don’t agree,
I’ll try to see your point of view,
Please do the same for me.”

    too much pride is not good…I love my dear so much that I feel like sometimes my pride gets too big, not in arrogant, but just my mind is always thinking about my dear and not others…forgive God…dear pray for me in this area.

    My Sweetie Baby ” BARRY”, Whenever we have misunderstandings, we always talked about it, because Our Love is much Stronger deep in our hearts. Our upsets were over powered by the Flame of Love that Burns in our hearts. We always try to mend it over with much Love and devotions to each other. Everytime we talked we always “say , i love you , and I miss you, before we hang up. I Love You so very dearly, missing you more than ever. Hugs and kisses to you Dear. …..J….ROOpach.. AUS.
