♥═══♥ Life is a Journey ♥═══♥
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey:
From childhood to maturity
and youth to age;
From innocence to awareness
and ignorance to knowing;
From foolishness to desecration
and then perhaps to wisdom.
From weakness to strength or
from strength to weakness
and often back again;
From health to sickness
and we pray to health again.
From offence to forgiveness
from loneliness to love
from joy to gratitude
from pain to compassion
from grief to understanding
from fear to faith.
From defeat to defeat to defeat
until looking backwards or ahead
We see that victory lies not
at some high point along the way
but in having made the journey
step by step
a sacred pilgrimage.
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey;
A sacred journey to life everlasting.

I sit beside the telephone
and wait for you to call
the telephone stays silent
and my tears begin to fall.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
With each day that passes by
and still no call from you
I want to keep believing that
you've had too much to do.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
I tell myself tomorrow
you'll find the time to phone
to let me know you just popped out
and now you're back at home.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
We talked for hours on the phone
we covered all the years
about our childhood memories
that brought laughter and some tears.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
You remembered many things
you had so much to say
but you forgot to tell me
that you had to go away.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
You didn't leave a number
for the place that you would be
but if they give you messages
you'll hear this one from me.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
If our phone calls end now
because we have to part
all the love I have for you
will never leave my heart.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
In my thoughts & prayers. Love from Liz & Stuart x

Rest your weary head and drift off into dreams,
Frolic in the sunshine and bathe in God's moonbeams.
Use the stars as stepping-stones to take you to your peace,
The pain of life forgotten now you have found release.
Without rain a flower folds, the petals drop and die,
There was no way to save you, you couldn't even cry.
So we cry all the tears instead as we must let you go
To Heaven, and God's garden to blossom and to grow.
The little seed is planted, you'll be watered every day,
The angels will tend all your needs as in their arms you lay.
Your life will be amazing now and full of wondrous things,
Rest in peace, our dear, sweet John, go fly on angels wings.

ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ Memories Of You ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ
Alan Pemberton
I had a drifting mood today
It stirred a thought or two
My mind went back to happy days
To memories of you.
Our lives are like a tapestry
With two distinctive sides
The front a perfect picture
The back our secret hides.
Our memories are built like this
Some are clear and real
Others travel in and out
With no specific feel.
Life's phases too are tapestries
With textures of their own
Some we love and some we hate
From all of them we've grown.
We gather wisdom from our pains
From torment we grow strong
Our spirit nurtured by mistakes
Still fated, travels on.
Perhaps one thing which stays the same
And will forever more
Is the love we hold for another soul
The people we adore.
So I had a drifting mood today
It stirred a thought or two
My mind went back to happy days
To memories of you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ In Peace Go Home ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ

Through veils of peace may you ascend
To promised planes above
Where comfort shall await you
In those summerlands of love.
Although my grief is deep and raw
Although my pain is great
I know that you are still with me
I know that you will wait.
For in God's time we'll meet again
Of this I am quite sure
I loved you so much on this earth
In absence even more.

This special Easter wish
That comes with love to you
Brings warm and heartfelt thanks
For all the thoughtful things you do--
It also comes to let you know
You mean so much more each day
To everyone your lives have touched
In such a loving way.
Happy Easter, Carole, with love xxx

I asked God for a flower, He gave me a garden.
I asked God for a tree, He gave me a forest.
I asked God for a river, He gave me an ocean.
I asked God for the world, He gave me you.
My heart is lost to you, always and forever.

~Your Loved One lives In Your Heart~
Many tender memories soften your grief,
May fond recollection bring you relief,
And may you find comfort and peace in the thought
Of the joy that knowing your loved one brought...
For time and space can never divide
Or keep your loved one from your side,
When memory paints in colors true
The happy hours that belonged to you.
(Helen Steiner Rice)
♦♥♦ Cherished Memories ♦♥♦
Sometimes it's hard to understand
To see the reason why,
Sometimes it's hard to find the words
To say that last goodbye.
Sometimes it's hard to look ahead
With eyes still filled with tears,
But all our cherished memories
Will live on through the years.
And though there are no answers
The questions still remain,
Sometimes we just can't comprehend
Or understand the pain.
Sometimes it's hard to look beyond
The rainclouds in the sky,
Though all our cherished memories
Will stay as time goes by.
Sometimes when we close our eyes
The only thing we see,
Are moments that are long gone by
Of how things used to be.
Sometimes we need to just let go,
Let tears fall as they may,
Reliving cherished memories
That never fade away.
