Hey Dr J….it was great to see u at Church on Sauturday meeting at 10.30. Yes, I was shocked to see you but happy that you came. I am experiencing a little misunderstanding with Church but nothing that Father and I cannot handle.
I apologise if I am the reason you stopped coming to our head office church. We were just victims of circumstance and I got all the blame when u stopped coming. We are both mature adults and should let bygones be bygones, right and move on in our lives. if its ok with u, I would like to be your friend. this will also silence any wagging tails.
Yesterday, a local physcologigist starting with the word P and surname Pillai insulted me saying that she saw you at the meeting and u look like a decent and humble guy who finally got over what I did to u. May I ask what exactly did I do to you? she said to me that I have much Pride and think that Im better than anyone else and u are actually superior to me in every way……She is angry with me cos she wanted to use me to fight the in charch of our local church whom she hates as well as his wife cos she claims that their daughter stole her hubby and was going out with her husband whilst they were married so in other words she called his daughter immoral who now stays in london. She said that this couple gave her a hard time as they felt that she should not attend satsang cos she is a divorcee and still in contact with their son in law. she was always a good friend of mine but she wants me to report my bro in law who is in charge to our head office. i never reported the white man who threw my family out of church cos I am a patriot. I am a key member of the ANC. Yes, I removed myself from the committee as its not allowed according to my in charge abroad but I am still a proud SA citizen. Now this girl phscologist says that I must be a bad person if my bro in law does not trust me and he wants me out of the SA Church. I dont believe this cos although he is very strict, he is one of the finest human beings I met. Why will he want me to resign totally from S.A.? Can u advise me? She basically wants to wage war with the local secretary here and the Rep himself cos she claims that his mom is crazy and his siter who is a witch cos they got her husband to leave her. Now, she wants to use me to fight her battles. And she is saying that I practically destroyed you. LET ME KNOW IN WHICH WAY I DESTROYED U?????
Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings lived; happiness, sadness, knowledge, and all the others, including love. One day it was announced to all of the feelings that the island was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean. So all the feelings prepared their boats to leave. Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted to preserve the island paradise until the last possible moment.
When the island was almost totally under, love decided it was time to leave. She began looking for someone to ask for help. Just then Richness was passing by in a grand boat. Love asked, “Richness, can I come with you on your boat?”
Richness answered, ” I’m sorry, but there is a lot of silver and gold on my boat and there would be no room for you anywhere.”
Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a beautiful vessel.Love cried out, “Vanity, help me please.” “I can’t help you”, Vanity said, ” You are all wet and will damage my beautiful boat.”
Next, Love saw Sadness passing by. Love said, ” Sadness, please let me go with you.” Sadness answered, “Love, I’m sorry, but, I just need to be alone now.”
Then, Love saw Happiness. Love cried out, ” Happiness, please take me with you.” But Happiness was so overjoyed that he didn’t hear Love calling to him.
Love began to cry. Then, she heard a voice say, “Come Love, I will take you with me.” It was an elder.
Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder his name.
When they arrived on land the elder went on his way. Love realized how much she owed the elder. Love then found Knowledge and asked, “Who was it that helped me?” “It was Time”, Knowledge answered. “But why did Time help me when no one else would?”, Love asked. Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and sincerity, answered, “Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is.”

There are two who love you. God loves you And He must be first because He will teach you how to love me and others.I love you because God is love and He is teaching me how to love too.

THERE IS A CHEMICAL REASON WHY COUPLES IN LOVE THINK THE OBJECT OF THEIR AFFECTION IS SO PERFECT AND WHY LOVERS ARE NOT ABLE TO “TAKE THE BLINDERS OFF.” FALLING IN LOVE RELEASES DOPAMINE IN THE BRAIN WHICH CAUSES THAT FEELING OF EUPHORIA. IT’S ADDICTIVE!!! ONCE SOMEONE EXPERIENCES IT, HE OR SHE WANTS MORE. IT’S A “FEEL WONDERFUL” DRUG! HOW MANY COUPLES UNDER THE INFLUENCE HAVE HAD THE MISFORTUNE TO LEARN LATER ON THAT THE ONE HE OR SHE LOVES IS FAR FROM PERFECT AND, IN MANY CASES, NOT SO LOVABLE?!
My heart was warmed by this beautiful inspiration as I recalled how it was for me when I fell in love many years ago. Now it is a wonderful memory because my love went to his heavenly reward leaving me with my memories to keep me warm. God bless you for this beautiful message. Jane
I agree with Nancy. After 42 years of ups and downs in my marriage, because he won’t
compromise and is ALWAYS RIGHT, I’m ready to throw in the towel. This is a beutiful
poem, but it’s only for the young who have just fallen in love. I would never send
this to my husband.
I agree, however trying to change someone and staying in a relationship that is loveless is a waste of time, like a prison sentence. That is not love. A person who loves you is willing to change their life, make sacrifices and enjoy your company. Want to share and give you joy.
Joyce, you and your husband are very blessed. That is the way it should be. Many cousins in my family married their high school and college sweethearts and share the same wonderful marriages, now as grandparents. One of my cousins married his next door neighbor that he met a 3 years old. At family reunions they stay and sit together as if they just met. They all have a big families and a fabulous marriages. It is a shame that many people don’t realize it isn’t just about them and sharing a life with a person you love, giving love and making sacrifices bring more beauty and magic than any fantastic love story ever written. A good marriage is everything and everything good springs from it for generations to follow. Marriage isn’t to be entered into lightly. There are those who should not marry, but the serious ones truly in love are in for the greatest treasure of all, eternally. Members of our family died close together as well.
Hubby & I have been married almost 44 years come October and everytime we kiss it’s like the very first time. True love never dies, it just gets better as the years pass.
l love this one because is it reminds me of the new relatioship that l just started which is so brand new and we love each other like no other on earth, l pray to everyone that they success in finding their true love too like l did also!!!!
All so true. Important to know you are also deeply valued and honored, share common goals and thoughts. Only then is it more than the just the magic of shared passion, enriching the experience, insuring it to be everlasting, oh so sacred and important.

We are both mature adults and should let bygones be bygones, right and move on in our lives. if its ok with u, I would like to be your friend. this will also silence any wagging tails.
Yesterday, a local physcologigist starting with the word P and surname Pillai insulted me saying that she saw you at the meeting and u look like a decent and humble guy who finally got over what I did to u. May I ask what exactly did I do to you? she said to me that I have much Pride and think that Im better than anyone else and u are actually superior to me in every way……She is angry with me cos she wanted to use me to fight the in charch of our local church whom she hates as well as his wife cos she claims that their daughter stole her hubby and was going out with her husband whilst they were married so in other words she called his daughter immoral who now stays in london. She said that this couple gave her a hard time as they felt that she should not attend satsang cos she is a divorcee and still in contact with their son in law. she was always a good friend of mine but she wants me to report my bro in law who is in charge to our head office. i never reported the white man who threw my family out of church cos I am a patriot. I am a key member of the ANC. Yes, I removed myself from the committee as its not allowed according to my in charge abroad but I am still a proud SA citizen. Now this girl phscologist says that I must be a bad person if my bro in law does not trust me and he wants me out of the SA Church. I dont believe this cos although he is very strict, he is one of the finest human beings I met. Why will he want me to resign totally from S.A.? Can u advise me? She basically wants to wage war with the local secretary here and the Rep himself cos she claims that his mom is crazy and his siter who is a witch cos they got her husband to leave her.
