Life is short. There is no time to leave important words unsaid.
I believe that when we look for love courageously, it reveals itself, and we attract even more love. If one person really wants us, everyone does. But if we’re alone, we become even more alone. Life is strange…

God is not human , it’s neither man or woman , it’s God ! The church or i don’t know who , is trying to promote this old skinny man that would be our God , but no , this is wrong . God gave us the word , but it’s beyound our comprehension .
He that is thy friend indeed,
He will help thee in thy need:
If thou sorrow, he will weep;
If thou wake, he cannot sleep:
Thus of every grief in heart
He with thee does bear a part.
These are certain signs to know
Faithful friend from flattering foe
Shakespeare
Thanks. I’ve never seen it (the poem) before. I like the idea of it. Don’t need empty flatterings but a real friendship.
Love,
Liina
Dearest Annie,
Read your post just now. Thank you for the meanings. Guess that romance book was incorrect.I’ll go with what you said.The author spelt goodnight as Kalinihta???
Yes, I think I’m gearing up for the trip ahead on Wednesday.haven’t made any lunch-will do Chinese today-buy lunch I mean(told you was hopeless at the cooking bit, when left to myself)Actually I think I’ve had enough of this self-imposed exile-a state I’ve slipped into for this and that reason.I really didn’t want to be holed up at home again so rasam here I come;-)
I would like to light a candle for EVERYONE here on Paulo Coelho’s blog if that’s okay with all the WOLs. LOVE YOU ALL for being here.
Love and hugs,
sheelu
Darling Annie, am actually listening to ABBA’s song titled Move On=right NOW!
Love,
sheelu
oh, you made my day!! <3
Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that’s always blowing, life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning
Move on
How I treasure every minute
Being part of it, being in it
With the urge to move on

Love you

Annie
LOVE YOU TOO, Annie. I almost forgot about that song and yesterday when I typed ABBA this particular video caught my eye.So really enjoyed that,Annie.
I am going to write down the words you so kindly set out for me. Am at the other cyber cafe where there are no earphones.This will be a lovely message to carry with me. I leave tomorrow evening.
Have to share this with you- Annie-I was channel surfing yesterday after getting back home and on my fav travel channel they were featuring Pondicherry!!! It’s called Puducherry now. Now Madras is Chennai, Bombay is Mumbai, Calcutta is Kolkata- if they do something like that to good ole Hyderabad- I will, I will..I will- eat chocolate! ;-)Couldn’t bear to have the name changed.
AND guess what,just this morning I received a GIFT of a new book of poems by GULZARJI from this bookstore owner!!!And it’s in English- the translations of his Urdu poems!Was looking for a translation of that song I mentioned in Poems Forum-”Humne dekhi hai Un annkhon ke mehekti khusboo”- for so long now and this just happens- totally unexpected.
Hugs,hugs, hugs,
sheelu
Who Am I to say I love yOU?…

Dearest Marie,
Glad you saw that post back there on Pg 1.I just had to say that to you here.
Believe you me, I look forward to seeing if there are emails from you in my inbox and sure enough there are many.makes my day,everytime.Love your brand of humor so much- it cracks me up each time! Not to speak of the wicked exchanges not so long ago here regarding Soulmate!
Love also that you find it in you to get up and do the things you need to do, every single day.I am ashamed of myself that I let those low feelings get me down and give up so easily.
Somehow over the years I see that it’s the simple things in life that count for me.Have suffered so much over the heavy-duty stuff! The little, everyday things that bind us even across continents.For me, it’s about finding God everyday.I don’t have to visit a temple everyday and I don’t.I find He is very present even in this cyber cafe!!!I find Him in YOU, cheering me up and giving me hope that I have someone who cares for me, (unconditionally at that) somewhere in the South of France-(okay I’m crying here as I write…)and you know that’s enough for me-that YOU are there with your lovely messages.I want you to know that.I wish I could do more for the things you believe in. I checked out Livestrong but I need to spend more time there.
Taking you with me on my journey. Will light a candle for you and Luna at Mother’s Church.
Love and huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs and besos and bacci galore,
Sheelu/la/ly
P.S.- ‘Persona’change and me?-hey 007 and competition-no way! hahaha

There is an important words unsaid to me.
Bible’s drama is happening in human’s inner world at present and the miracle happened to me.
I have to mention about it though nobody believe me.
But, that is true.
Bible is not ancient document but alive God’s words.
I saw and felt the most beautiful place human can go.
Believe me Supia,I believe you.Having felt peace and love that I cannot describe in words in the presence of an angel.I never heard voices and don’t know what you must have seen,but I do know there is more than this.I knew someone who’s been transported somewhere so peaceful when she gave birth in a fraction of second just by looking into her child’s eyes.She said it was somewhere around the stars though,so which leads us to what Kealan said earlier.There is more to discover in the desert ect..and things that have been hidden to us too.To me the bible like all other sacred books hold a piece of truth but not all,there are some missing pages,things left unsaid,unread,not found.Yet perhaps we are made of star dust but surely to me,the memory leaves and the soul carries it.Also think that love is more important than all the rest,this feeling you take it with you too.If I believe that we are resting somewhere when we cross over,I believe also that some persons we love can come to say hi sometimes,specially when we need them going through bad things,or for big celebrations like when a new born baby is at home,just like it happened to me.We truely never die,only the body which is just an recipient.And some people are more sensitive than others and can feel presences.I’m one of those,but I do know people who are even more.Some accept it as a gift and use it to pass messages,like mediums.Some even work with the police.Some don’t recognise it and suffer all their lives.It can be a curse or a gift,depends how you use it.This is another proof for me that there is much more than this.Sometimes unfortunately there are tricky voices that can come from something evil,for example,who could kill in the name of God,while God is pure love?This is an example.I think we would agree.What are schizopherenes in fact?Do you think it is being medium taken as extreme?Do you think they do hear evil voices?Perhaps are they mediums who deny it?Or so sensitive individus that they are easy to manipulate.I do believe that when people are sick and fragile some evil forces can push them too.I’ve seen the face of evil,and not only me,my boyfriend,before I knew him,my best friend when she was 15.We did all described the same guy,evil looking like,who tried to kill us in our (so real) dreams.Only for my boyfriend and I he came once,but my best friend he came for 6 months and almost killed her.All I know is that she was really sick at that time,struggling with really bad asthma,so fragile,it was easy and as she is a bit like me,a sponge for spirits passing by,you see was easier.Sure with what I’ve felt and seen I do believe in God and devil and bright and dark forces.There are so many things to discover,so interesting.
Well sorry for that long message and a bit out of subject.I guess I had things unsaid that I wanted to write today,even if for myself.Thank you for reading.
Be well Supia.
“In 2004 I read his book, The alchemist.
In those days I was about to step on the path of my dream after the initial door on the path was opened with unbearable hidden sorrow. But I didn’t perceive that the way would be the right way, led me to come to secret place behind milky semitransparent veil came down from the air of our consciousness. That period was a pregnancy period of consciousness. I saw a round shiny crystal ball at the place. I felt it was love in my mind.
There is a calm and empty-fully space just one-stepped into our consciousness in our inner world. At that place, I saw the universal besprent stars through human’s eyes. One of them is him. In that manner PauloCoelho became a sense to me as one of a few artists. He dropped his work wearing clothes of his soul aged of 38 on my knees across the universe. Slowly my knees was being dyed like a red petal painted on an achromatic color. Still not yet climbing up my mind.”
The above words is my blog’s selection. I wrote, “I saw the universal besprent stars through human’s eyes.” But, the period was human inner world’s the first place which I could feel peace, but yet there was no the Light.
From 2004 to 2008, I had a gestation period of consciousness from the white veil. I didn’t know the role of white veil, but now I know it. When the white veil was hanged down, it was a role of the navel string of consciousness. Actually, I didn’t become pregnant with any child but I became pregnant with myself’s consciousness.
And I was possible to feel like a newborn baby after the veil slap down with ceremony of the Light.
When Ceremony of the Light started, the veil was slipped down like a handkerchief.
During last year, I lived with the Light and I lived within the Light.
As soon as the white veil disappeared, the bright light from my head’s center shined the light toward our world.
But powerful energy’s source existed in the center of my chest.
I could see only light. God oneself has never made a darkness. I couldn’t see the evil. I just could see fears in human’s inner world.
Thank you, candieb.
American? In fact, your story was too long but on the other side I’m very gald. I’ll read again.
Encantei-me com o seu livro “O ALQUIMISTA”.

Você é um excelente escritor!
Hi everyone,
Talk about W o L, I just got back from some insanity at the local mill. This guy is mixed up with a loco chick, she’s badly messed up. It sounds like she killed his dog, or her demons did. Crazy. He got an odd situation where he is challenged in a spiritual way. He said he met her a few weeks ago at a church function, and started being dad to her two kids, 9 adhd boy and 7 girl. This woman was apparently beaten as a child and appears to be living a life of hell. I met her and she appeared a little drunk to me, swinging a cat around by the tail. Creepy, but his old dog bit the girl, and the lady killed it. His year old lab turned up dead on this Sunday past. He suspects her having poisoned it. She wants to marry him, and he said he burned their application along with his dog’s records. Whoa! I told him she’s possessed, that the dogs are his allies. I’m reminded of the wonderful story Paulo told about the road with the two gates to heaven and hell. Its weird, but it seems God put him in her path to help her. He said he’s supposed to go get a new application today, and I urged him to get the wrong one or burn it again, anything to stall her. It’ll look different soon, I said.
Thanks,
Jay
Dearest Annie,
Kalimera!(Actually it’s going to be 2 in the afternoon here!Still working on the language lessons…tee!hee!
Thank YOU SO VERY MUCH for your heartfelt reply to mine. It’s true all of what I wrote beacause I felt that and I wasn’t expecting any response-just felt happy sharing that.(Funny that Erreth was instrumental in helping me say all of that!)Sometimes we need or I do time and again, to go away from everything we hold dear to ourselves, to put things in perspective.
I love you too,little one.And you are such a beautiful, wise Soul-truly-I am so sorry I could not hear your song back then-but I was thrilled to see YOU.Loved the books in the background-now that’s like my kinda room.These PCs in this cyber cafe where I come to, have only that much-so I get lucky when this particular cabin is uninhabited so I can get to do some blogging,among other things.
I am off to Chennai after 3 long years- to be there for my darling niece’s debut dance performance on stage(it’s called Arangetram in tamil)It’s an important occasion especially for a dancer(she is learning Bharatnatyam) and she( knowing I am a recluse or have turned into one)insisted I make that journey.
I am horrified to go back to being in that social set-up among hundreds of relatives and socialising-eeeks!
But it will also mean that I can go to Mother Vellankani’s Church to say THANK YOU and light candles for prayers answered, regarding my friends. I had done that in 2004 after that Sri Lankan holiday with my sis and family.Here the Divine Mother is very beautiful, so calm, so lovely, and holding Infant Jesus.
Love and hugs,
sheelu
Dearest Sheelu,
Kalispera!! I guess there it is evening by now.. Have a beautiful trip to Chennai!! A trip is always a very good way to ‘move’ (on) ..
As far as the relatives are concerned, do not let anyone bring you down! you are amazing and if they can’t RELATE to your heart, too bad for them!!
Love you so much
Take care my beautiful Sheelu!
Love and Graditude
Annie
Aha! Annie-Kalispera-wow is that good evening? I know Kalinihta. And is endaxi-exactly? Mou Theos -is it My God? Athens, here I come!
Ego se efharisto,dearest Annie angel girl for your encouraging words.I remember that from the time you wrote those words to me.It was our festival Diwali in India yesterday so I couldn’t be here in flesh and blood:-)
Move on, hmmmm.Yes, i thought I should go there, make that journey just to test myself -face up to life all over again.Look it in the eye and see what I can learn.
I also look forward to beach walks,sunsets,and seeing my niece and nephew and relishing some excellent South Indian coffee and my sister’s lovely rasam(a spicy ,liquidy,thin concoction of tamarind and pepper and garlic and tomatoes, that goes with rice) and all the yummy stuff they make at her place!Oh oh oh- Time to pile on the kilos-hahaha! I would so much love to go to Pondicherry too which is a 3 hour drive from Chennai-Mother Mirra Alfassa’s ashram there-Auroville.Let’s see what actually happens.
About them relatives, my sister’s actually- there’s nowhere to hide;-) I mean the usual questions and the probing looks and…watch this space!!!Will keep you posted.
Will be thinking of you and Marie-Christine! Marie, you would love Pondi- it’s a French set-up. Mother is from France.I say is because She lives on.It’s just that you don’t see them in the flesh now.We go back a long way, you know.
Take care of you ,my Blue Lotus,
Love and hugs,
Sheelu
Yes, dearest Sheelu, Kalispera is Good Evening and Kalimera is Good Morning and Kalinixta is Good Night.. Endaxi is ok! and ‘Theos Moy’ is My God..SO, yes, here you come, Athens!! <3 :D :D
I think if you will focus on the positive things (beach walks, sunsets, great coffee, this ‘exotic’rasam that sounds delicious) you ll be better than fine, my dear one! I think if it is time for you to go to Pondicherry you will ! yes, let’s see what happens ;o)
Well, tell at your sister ‘if you pile me on kilos with your food, I need more space!!’ hehe <3
love you so much!
love and graditude
Annie

Well, it aint exactly pretty.
[kaltura-widget wid="v2e4kmghzo" size="comments" /]
Ohh my Go. What have you written above ??? You are pretty. And if you were not, would be ok, for here we dont have a beauty contest, I guess so. Nice songs, you really make me happier. Just please forget the ideas you not pretty. I could say same, but I wont, because we are all pretty, in our unique way, and more, beauty comes from inside. You are good hearted, so, nicer . Take care
Love
Alexandra
Dear Alexandra. I should have been more specific. It was about the message of the song. That I’d rather speak truth than tell lies, even if sometimes the truth is hard to listen to. That was the message (it aint that pretty, but at least it’s true).
I love You
~*~*~*~
The song goes:
Oh, it tears me up
I tried to hold on but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive but it’s not enough
To make it all okay
You can’t play our broken strings
You can’t feel anything
That your heart don’t want to feel
I can’t tell you something that ain’t real
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
~*~*~*~
Love,
Liina
You all are wonderful.
And Alexandra – You are an elegant beautiful lady.
Love,
Liina
Alexandra muy bien que me lo creo lo mismo.
He he, thanks dear Rosa, you are wonderful, we all are …
Love
Alexandra
Thank you ,Liina, see now I feel happy. How sweet of you to say that.
I am sorry if I missunderstood your message, I try. And I really like videos, made by you and the WoLs…Looking forward to see you, bye.
Have a nice time
Love
Alexandra
You have a great voice Liina,so stop saying that!:)
No, I don’t agree with this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is the one, for those who don’t know it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrZcB-9i7I0
I think I hate this song.. it makes me sad, and sadder..
How can one love a little less?????? Can we ever measure HER?
i like to say I love you so so so so much, but it is NOT about QUANTITY, it is about filling the space of the whole Universe..a Love with no boundaries, with no limits, whatever the other one does, does it really matter? it doesn’t change the fact that I love.. AND because I still do, it hurts, and possibly hurts because you don’t receive the love expected….but to me it is definitely not loving the other one less..
(We are all humans, and we all do mistakes..)
Love and Graditude
Annie
p.s Dear Liina, are you sad?? you seem a bit sad..if yes, hopefully not, I send you hugs and <3 to make it a little more ok..
What ain’t exactly pretty?? NO WAY!!!! IT’S DEFINITELY PRETTY!
Dear Annie.
I also agree that we cannot measure love. And I can’t say I agree with the whole idea of that song either. But my postings intention was different from what was percieved. I should of been more specific and perhaps even wrote the explanatory text with the video, so noone would get misinterpretions.
“…You can’t feel anything
That your heart don’t want to feel
I can’t tell you something that ain’t real
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse…”
That exact part of the song spoke to me strongly. The thoughts behind those words. My main idea was to send a message that we should tell the truth. Not if the reason is to hurt someone, but if the reason is tell the truth. And we should be able to say it, even if it is a bit hard for ourselves, or if it may be hard on others to listen to it.
Annie: no, I am not sad. I just really live into music and at that moment when I singed it, yes, I was sad. I lived into the song.
Alexandra: no, I am not feeling sorry for myself.
Candie: that was not what I was trying to say.
Obviously I sent some mixed messages?
Today’s lesson: I will try to be more specific from now on.
Things aren’t as morose, really.
Life is beautiful! And so are all of You.
:)
Btw. after posting this video last night I found out that a relative of mine had a baby girl and that she will possibly be called Elisabeth.
Love,
Liina
Yannis,
So sorry if you are upset by what I said, but that upset is your entitlement if you so desire. I too was upset by your response to Anca who feels that the quote, which you do not much like, serves as a reminder for her and is useful to her remembering what is important.
The statements you made to her sounded like a reprimand and an admonishment that her thinking was wrong. At least that is how it sounded to me and I quote….
“But the past can touch you and its grip is fierce! Imagine how an adult will react to his environment, if he has learnt as a child that whatever he does, he will not succeed.
And the future is in front of us, justifying those researchs that pinpoint that “stress” kills everyday plenty of our fellowmen.
I am sorry to say that, but quotes cannot heal us.”
To me this sounds angry and the statement at the end comes across to me that you are informing her that quotes can not do anything for her so give it up, and just because because the past can “But the past can touch you and its grip is fierce!” does not mean that it will be everyone’s experience yet you sound as if it is a warning that she better quit believing in her fairytale quotes as the demons of the past are out to get her and are biting at her heels and about to get her and rip her to shreds.
“Quotes cannot heal us” is a definite statement not an opinion and “But the past can touch you and its grip is fierce!” is also a definite and a warning with no shadow of inference that it is your experience or opinion. Sorry if I read it other than you intended, but perhaps you should include that it has been you experience or it is your thoughts or opinion that this is the way it can be instead of writing as if you state facts. Your reality is no one else’s reality and we cant read your mind or intent so clarity is key to clear interpretation of your statement.
I apologize for my harshness, I am quick to defend if I perceive someone is being belittled or berated for their point of view. I too use quotes as mental reminders of how I am changing my old conditioning and creating a better life and person for myself and I am very fiercely mothering even to people I do not know when I feel compelled to defend them. Like a lioness with her cub. I would defend you just as quickly and fiercely if I felt you were being treated badly. The past should be full of lessons learned and hopefully we need not repeat any of them, including this one.
Love sincerely,
Paula
Hi paulo
sorry for buttinging in, i am not aware of the context in which u wrote this, other than what u have written. but ceratin things are of general nature like
1. anyone who says anything here, is their personal opinion, ain’t it. do we need to specifically say that.
2. Quotes help us, but quotes alone cannot help us, we need to continuously stive to live teh life indicated by these quotes.
love
devil
Hi Devil,
You are not butting in as this is an open forum to my understanding.
And yes all that is written here should be personal opinion. Yet it is quite impossible to keep it purely opinion when you can feel the emotion of the writer.
I guess I need to rein in my intuition and protectiveness and assume that people are just talking through their hats and that none of it is real nor important to them.
Problem is assuming always gets me in trouble, and to me all of this discussion is about something that is important and very real to me.
I used the reminder of quotes to give me the strength and determination to change my life drastically for the better.
While I agree that they alone do not fix things they are just like a spiritual practice or any tool we might choose to use to remind us what we want to change or where we want to go from where we are and this is useful and beneficial. So maybe quotes cant heal Yannis, and perhaps they don’t do much for you either, but a statement written with the energy and belief and context that Yannis wrote the things I quoted could make someone avoid quotes as a tool for their own learning and improvement. Words are powerful things and they affect those that read them even if most people are totally unaware that they have been affected on levels that they do not consciously perceive.
I am empathic so I pick up on moods feelings and emotions that others put off themselves…..even through their writing. So if you think that what you say, do, or write will do no harm to others I assure you that you are wrong, I can attest to this first hand. Like Yannis said if you are told as a child that all you do will fail you will make those words part of your thinking and being and in order to change those ideas that were planted in you as a child you have to repeatedly replace those programmed words and phrases with what you want to really have and be in your life.
We are here on this blog because Paulo’s words written touched something within each of us and we all set out to understand better what about his writing draws us…..it is not a conscious thing really it is more of a soul longing, something about the writing and the situations make sense or seem familiar to us, and it draws us and inspires us. And that is how quotes can be powerful tools and words can also be vicious dangerous things. Be very careful what you think and even more careful what you say or write as you can not know how it will affect those that hear or read your words.
You likely will not believe what I say but no matter one day you will know for yourself the truth.
i’ll rename you.. devil’s advocate!
Cathrine,
I must ask….who do you speak of and is it a kind remark or just being witty?
I am thinking you mean Devil and you are poking fun……eh!
All the best to you,
Paula
Hi Devil,
If interested, just go to the 1st page and using ctrl+f and typing “yann”, you can find my posts and Paula’s.
Take care…
Paula, I cannot understand you AT ALL. You give me the impression that you just read my posts very fast and just jumped to an answer.
Firstly, if you want a reply from me, your answer must be to my post. This is NOT a rebuke. Just a suggestion.
Devil, actually, said what I said in my previous post. But you don’t seem to understand that! Why? We just said our opinion; nothing more or less.
You are right that if I get upset from something, it is my problem and it is my feelings that start coming up. The same goes for everyone, as well…
But the fact that some people may take what I write in a wrong way (like you did) shouldn’t be an obstacle to me to “speak freely”. What should I do? Stay inside a cage and keep my mouth shut?
From the other hand, other people could benefit from what I wrote.
Why did you want to defend someone? This is a free blog (of course, with no insults included). If Anca had a problem or a disagreement, SHE should have written to me,…NOT YOU.
How can you possibly know HOW SHE FELT?
From the way you write, you give the impression that you comprehend some things deeper (if you recall, I said that I agreed with most of your post). But, implying that you understand the way others feel, is undue. You cannot do that! How can you possibly know how I or Anca or Coelho could feel about the same situation or perceive an experience?
Maybe what you don’t like about me is the way I say something. But, this is true: I don’t go around, making circles and then reach a conclusion. I say what I believe and that’s it. No fancy words (unless they come naturally), no politeness, no rudeness…
Don’t apologize for what you said to me. This is your way of acting.
“Apologize” means that you see that I am right and you are wrong and you make your first step of changing your way of acting by starting with me.
BUT, if you still think I am wrong, why would you apologize? You didn’t insult me or called me names.
The REALLY BAD thing is that you jumped to TOO MANY CONCLUSIONS about me, my past and my experiences. I wrote something, I claimed something else about the past and suddenly…Yannis is this and Yannis has felt that and Yannis doesn’t comprehend the other…
NO! I have my life experience (like everybody here) and then I noticed and paid attention to the things that seemed important to me.
To be honest, I don’t care that much if someone else sees me wrong and believes something unreal for me. But, I do prefer to be told what someone believes about me. Then, I have the chance to see if I am mistaken and consequently learn from the other.
As I said, God equipped us with sensors to perceive messages. Our heart, our brain, our feelings. God doesn’t usually descend on Earth to give lessons, so everybody else around me (and his/her opinion) is the best that can happen to me to help me improve myself.
Yannis,
Thank you for responding. My apology was because I said things that I should not have said to you in my post, it was bad manners. Even if my feelings are correct in what I picked up on, I did not have the right to say what I did to you in the way that I did. It was an emotional reaction that I should not have posted. I do not think what you said was true for me or even perhaps for Anca that is hers to say or not, but you believe what you said and that should have been good enough for me and I acted badly by posting my response and saying what I said. I will not ask that you accept my apology or respond. In the future I will make a sincere effort to explore your points of view without bringing my emotional reactions into my comments.
Sincerely,
Paula
Good day Paula,
As I said, I couldn’t understand you, but you gave me one clue to form some sort of an idea for you. The clue came from your response to Catherine above.
It feels like (to me of course), you pay a lot of attention (sometimes too much) to what others say. And, at the same time you try to analyze their words very profoundly.
In my opinion, this is good. Because in general, people just don’t hear the speaker. So, here you have my apologies because, I made a mistake saying that you seemed not to have read my posts. Actually, you seem to have done it and you did it very carefully.
But the drawback to the above is that I also used the expression “too much”. And when something exceeds the limit is not beneficial. For example, food is beneficial, over-eating isn’t. Sleeping is also beneficial, sleeping 16 hours per day isn’t.
Returning to my comment, I think that analyzing sometimes too much something doesn’t help all the times. And I know this, because I used to do it quite a few times in the past. Sometimes, I tend to do it now, as well…
So, I believe that people have a rather unique way of expressing themselves, so not all the things that sound weird, are really weird.
I hope you get my meaning.
Now, my suggestion. Do not stop to be what you are because of some people. Change yourself, when YOU feel it has to change in a specific way or another. Keep writing and talking the way you do, if you feel that it is correct. You cannot be anything, but yourself and by being you and accepting all the “goods” and “bads” of you, can help you improve the “goods” and exterminate the “bads”.
By the way, I AM ABSOLUTELY AT YOUR SIDE when you say that you reacted to an emotional situation. I assure you, I care deep about feelings and I realize how they can rule our lives, in a positive or negative way.
Oh…And I didn’t say ANYTHING about Anca; I said something about Mary Williamson. Why did you say that above? Did you perceive something like that? I would like to now, if you please.
Very well, cause I believe we had a quite nice and beneficial conversation. It was out of the subject, but I am sure both of us were helped consiously and/or uncosciously.
Take care and I hope to read you soon, IN YOUR OWN UNIQUE WAY…I really mean that!!
A vida é curta então temos que identificar o que é realmente importante para nós. Palavras o vento leva mas algumas são ingratas deixam marcas essas temos que deixar para trás e só ouvir as que vem do coração.
Prezada Maria Emilia,
O vento também pode levar embora as marcas…
e trazer palavras bonitas que você nem imagina…
Pode fazer você ir com ele… fé…
Aceita um café!
Thinking about a way to say Thank You, express Gratitude and Love to everyone and everything.
Decided to share a song that I loved since it was born:

Return To Innocence, by Enigma
Lyrics :
Love, devotion
Feeling, emotion
Love, devotion
Feeling, emotion
Don’t be afraid to be weak
Don’t be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart, my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence
If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself, don’t hide
Just believe in destiny
Don’t care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don’t give up and use the chance
To return to innocence
That’s not the beginning of the end
That’s the return to yourself
The return to innocence
Don’t care what people say
Follow just your own way
Don’t give up, don’t give up
To return, to return to innocence
If you want, then laugh
If you must, then cry
Be yourself, don’t hide
Just believe in destiny
Songwriters: Cretu, Michael
With Love and Gratitude, Jane : ) xo
Thank you dear Jane <3
Love and Graditude
Annie
Thankyou – it’s nice to be reminded about old songs..
I remember this unusual vocal chorus/harmonies of this song well now. Have you listened to Enya,.. or Adiemus by Karl Jenkins ? I think you might enjoy them also ;o)
Thanks Jane. I also enjoy listening to “The Return to Innocence”.
Peace.
You’re very welcome : )
Love Enya’s songs and will now listen to Adiemus, how exciting, thank you, very much appreciated!!
Love, Jane : ) xo
OMGoodness… i hope you’ll enjoy it…
Adiemus is like hearing the rainforest and all it’s creatures taking to song ;o) x
YES, exhilarating!!!!!!! Incredibly, powerfully beautiful. Dear Catherine – Thank you Thank you Thank you : )
Love to bubble over with these feelings at pow-wows, through doing/seeing/hearing/tasting favorite things, being in the company of loving people, and just being outdoors quietly. Even after a day well spent. This is how my joy FEELS – truly, prayer in motion. Cannot thank you enough!! How about you?

Love, Jane : ) xo
God speaks to me this way, through music (love the flute…my daughter used to play the flute and so did I). And you shared this music, with us. Also reminds me of segment of music in The Lion King too. So I am smiling : )
What a day!!!
A vida é curta, sim, mas para as palavras dita do coração sempre haverá tempo.
Cadê a esperança desse homem tão inteligente, pois esta frase é de uma pessoa sem esperança.
very true,(though sometimes we can’t put into words how we feel or what we want to say)but life has given us so much to be able to express them fully. in return life is also asking from us to live passionately.
good morning thursday! enjoy God’s peace!
Namaste,
The problem is that when I’m in a conversation with someone, the real important things I want to say don’t even come to mind until I’m home, in bed and reliving the conversation in my mind. This is why I write. :-)
Love to you
same here also sometimes..but on the next time we meet i make sure that he/she hears what i wanted to say ^^
