On Love, Families and Little Children ♥

I believe that Families are designed to be together for time and all eternities.

We all come from somewhere

and we are sent to this earth for a purpose.

We come as babies

and as years go by

we grow and mature ...

and slowly age ...

The plan however continues ...

and as those who came before, early on, grow in years

newborn babies come,

and bring laughter and joy into the family.

And so the cycle continues on and on ...

till the plan is done

and we all return

to that place we once were

where we will be

together

one big happy family.

Friends

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out.  It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being.  We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.  

~Albert Schweitzer~

True friendship consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and value.

~Ben Jonson~

 

We have been friends together

In sunshine and in shade.

In my friend, I find a second self.

No road is long with good company.

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. 

~Marcel Proust~

 

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, 

we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, 

have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.  The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, 

who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, 

who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing 

and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, 

that is a friend who cares.  

~Henri Nouwen~
