But until forever is here, until a lifetime is lived, and until eternity gives me a chance to say everything, I will hold you in my heart more gently than any feelings. I will feel blessed by your presence more than you will ever know. I love having you in my life and I'd love to go on loving you forever.
Words are very important. Words can heal... Words can harm. Words are sometimes like knives that can wound Words can hurt grievously for a long time. The tongue can bless and the tongue can curse.
It is very important that we control the words we say and tame our tongue when we are angry.
Many times, when we are angry we say the most degrading, harsh, brutal and atrocious things. We forget ourselves and become indifferent to what we say. Although we may not mean those words, but words once spoken cannot be taken back and it takes a long time to forget.
He slipped his hand into hers and held it tight. It was a cold night. Colder than usual. And they stared at the stars, speaking of nothing. Not a single word to each other.
And she cried.
Deep inside, he did too but tears wouldn't come out.
Why?
It was an inevitable fate. It couldn't be stopped. Not by him, not by her.
In the midst of the silence, she thought of everything. What was happening, what would happen, and what could happen.
And she broke the silence. Tears still flowing, in between sobs saying :
"Why now, why?...
She hugged him tight, looking at his face. And he, looked away for tears started to drip.
As they stood up, he pointed at the moon, Making her see it's beauty, it's bright glow and how it would always remind him of her.

Every time I am down, need hope and encouragement I would go out and sit by the garden and look up. Looking at stars somehow makes me feel that there is a wonderful world out there; that there is hope; that life is beautiful. The way the stars flicker in the dark night has its magical way of comforting an aching soul like me.
But tonight I learned that stars can't be around all the time. Clouds had hidden the stars and instead brought raindrops. Where are the stars now that I need them? All I can feel is the rain, pouring like teardrops from heaven...it's like the angels above feel my pain.
I went to my room... felt all alone... didn't find the stars that had comforted me before... all I needed was just one star, one string of hope I can hold on to. But the heavens have failed me... I thought it did and I was wrong... sitting on the bed, I saw a star... well not just one but two... two stars that I know will never leave me and will always give me reason to hope... to hold on... and to believe that things will get better soon.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR FRIEND. Wish you another year filled with the same joy you bring to others. May your days be filled with sunshine and may your nights be filled with comforting dreams and wishes to come true. I LOVE YOU my friend and always remember that i will always be here for you.
When you're down to nothing, God is up to something.
This is beautiful and touching story that was sent to me three years ago. Try not to cry reading it *************************************************
She jumped up as soon as she saw the surgeon come out of the operating room. She said: "How is my little boy ? Is he going to be all right ? When can I see him ?"
The surgeon said, "I'm sorry. We did all we could, but your boy didn't make it."
Sally said, "Why do little children get cancer ? Doesn't God care anymore ? Where were you, God, when my son needed you ?"
The surgeon asked, "Would you like some time alone with your son ? One of the nurses will be out in a few minutes, before he's transported to the university."
Sally asked the nurse to stay with her while she said good bye to son. She ran her fingers lovingly through his thick red curly hair.
"Would you like a lock of his hair ?" the nurse asked.
Sally nodded yes.
The nurse cut a lock of the boy's hair, put it in a plastic bag and handed it to Sally.
The mother said, "It was Jimmy's idea to donate his body to the University for Study. He said it might help somebody else. I said no at first, but Jimmy said, 'Mom, I won't be using it after I die. Maybe it will help some other little boy spend one more day with his Mom."
She went on, "My Jimmy had a heart of gold. Always thinking of someone else. Always wanting to help others if he could."
Sally walked out of Children's Mercy Hospital for the last time, after spending most of the last six months there. She put the bag with Jimmy's belongings on the seat beside her in the car.
The drive home was difficult. It was even harder to enter the empty house. She carried Jimmy's belongings, and the plastic bag with the lock of his hair to her son's room.
She started placing the model cars and other personal things back in his room where he had always kept them. She laid down across his bed and, hugging his pillow, cried herself to sleep.
It was around midnight when Sally awoke. Laying beside her on the bed was a folded letter.
The letter said :
"Dear Mom, I know you're going to miss me; but don't think that I will ever forget you, or stop loving you, just 'cause I'm not around to say "I Love You" . I will always love you, Mom, even more with each day. Someday we will see each other again. Until then, if you want to adopt a little boy so you won't be so lonely, that's okay with me. He can have my room and old stuff to play with. But, if you decide to get a girl instead, she probably wouldn't like the same things us boys do. You'll have to buy her dolls and stuff girls like, you know.
Don't be sad thinking about me. This really is a neat place. Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got here and showed me around some, but it will take a long time to see everything.
The angels are so cool. I love to watch them fly.
And, you know what? Jesus doesn't look like any of his pictures. Yet, when I saw Him, I knew it was Him. Jesus himself took me to see GOD ! And guess what, Mom ? I got to sit on God's knee and talk to Him, like I was somebody importan t. That's when I told Him that I wanted to write you a letter, to tell you good bye and everything. But I already knew that wasn't allowed.
Well , you know what Mom ? God handed me some paper and His own personal pen to write you this letter. I think Gabriel is the name of the angel who is going to drop this letter off to you. God said for me to give you the answer to one of the questions you asked Him 'Where was He when I needed him ?' "God said He was in the same place with me, as when His son Jesus was on the cross. He was right there, as He always is with all His children.
Oh, by the way, Mom, no one else can see what I've written except you. To everyone else this is just a blank piece of paper. Isn't that cool? I have to give God His pen back now. He needs it to write some more names in the Book of Life. Tonight I get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper. I'm sure the food wi ll be great.
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I don't hurt anymore. The cancer is all gone. I'm glad because I couldn't stand that pain anymore and God couldn't stand to see me hurt so much, either. That's when He sent The Angel of Mercy to come get me. The Angel said I was a Special Delivery ! How about that ?
