Laughing



Epitaph Of A Loving Man
His life was loving and grand.
He laughed many times, sometimes cried.
But just as he lived, he also died.
Tears in his eyes, a smile on his face
and offering to everyone in the place,
his love in an open hand.

Courage

I will always maintain my courage.
For, through all the years,
 
 

I have encountered many fears
and taken many a destructive fall.
I have always been hard to discourage,
because I know that I can overcome it all.
Courage will always be a part of my plan
and I will always do the best that I can.

A Heart Of Gold

You might be able to buy a heart of gold before the eyes of a jeweler,
but you cannot buy a heart of gold before the eyes of God.
You cannot buy my heart by any means whatsoever !
Be assured that I will not attempt to buy your heart,
because the love that comes from your heart comes from it through
the generosity of God, who granted that love to you, and the love of 
God is necessarily given, it cannot be bought by any means whatsoever. 

The Balance sheet of Life

When you come into the world, you have no net worth. God has given to you, God has  given
to you the gift of life and other assets. These assets are equaled by liabilities to serve God. You
have the the opportunity to establish a net worth by utilizing your assets properly. You can
reduce your liabilities by serving God in proper manners. By this formula, ypu will be able to
accumulate and maintain a net worth. When you leave the world, your net worth will have been redistributed to others or returned to God by your lifetime transactions.

Of Life

I've studied and read,
heard what's been said
by the living and the dead,
of love,
of  life.
I dread about being dead,
but, better, instead,
I love
the life.

Leila Dear

We wait for her smile
to brighten our day,
because, soon thereafter
or in a little while,
will come to us the cheerful laughter
that she sends our way.
So thoughtful and sincere
is the only way that
she would ever want be.
That is why she is Leila Dear.

V is for virtue. Virtue is an inherent attribute of living a lovinf life.

Loving Deeds

If I give my love to you
and you give your love to me,
it is easy to understand and see
that giving and receiving love
are very good deeds to do.
If I do a good deed for you
and you do a good deed for me,
it is easy to understand and see
that these actions are fine to do.
Doing good deeds for God, in heaven above,
surely makes the world a better place to be
and insures that the universe will be filled with love.


Awaken With Love
It is wonderful to awaken with the feelings of love 
that have come from loving friends and God above.

True Courage

True courage: Fear notwithstanding,you must do whatever must be done disregarding the destructive consequences that
might befal you.


Love Shared

Because it comes first from God,love between people does not  necesarily have to be defined or seen,it needs only to be
shared to be realized.


Speak

It is better to speak your thoughts and to have them rejected than it is to have an excellent potentiality repressed and
remain unknown to anyone else!


A Resolution For The New Year

My resolution for each new year is the same one that I have each day of my life. I pray that God will graant to me the
abiliity to live a life of shared love. When a person shares love,anything else can also be accomplished.



Accomplishments

No person has singly accomplished anything,Any person might have been the impetus or helper in the accomplishment,
but necessarily,there must have been another force,factor or person involved in the process.


Life Is



Let this be your life's sequel :
To it you will find no equal :
Love,lovable,Loving
Let this be the essence of your being !

Willpower

Willpower is one of the assets that God has granted to me.  It is my intention to utilize this valuable asset in order to accomplish
whatever is necessary to please God by adding more everlasting love to God's world.

Honesty

If it is not possible for you to explain to others, the feeling of honesty that dwells within your heart while  you live, at least, you will be
content to have the knowledge that God has granted to you the ability to know that the peaceful feeling will be with you eternally.

Loving OratorLaughing

The orator whose words are heartfelt does not not have to prepare  a speech, because the words that are voiced by a person who 
possesses a loving heart come from God, whose power will continue to transmit the words, enabling the speaker to articulate
extemporaneously. 


  The Puzzle Of Life

TThere are many ways to solve the puzzle of life, but you must understand that it might take a lifetime to reach the solution. I give tthanks to God for having made the solution a part of my being from the very beginning and for giving me the innate ability to solve 
 other challenges, whatever the challenges might be.

 Laughing Love

Let me relate to you , right from the start:
This message is filled with love from the heart.
This poem will conclude as I intend
and consist only of love to the end.
I'm sure that you are able to see
 that love is the worldly item most important to me.

Goodbye

 It gives me a loving feeling
 to say "goodbye"
 to friends when I'm ready to go.
 What is the reason, why ?
 because I know that I'll again have the feeling
 the next time that I say "hello."

 Loving Marie

  Why do I love you, Marie ?
 Because when I am feeling sad,
 I know that I have the choice
 of once again feeling glad
 by listening to your loving voice
 and by knowing that you love me.

 Happiness

 If, at the end of the day, my last thoughts before retiring
 are thoughts of happiness,then all other shall have  been
 resolved and the  thoughts of happiness shall have prevailed.
 If, at the end of my life, my final memories are memories of 
t the life of happiness that God has granted to me, then my
existence shall have been an experience of complete happiness.


LaughingGift
God gives to each of us the gift of life, but God cannot will us to use  the gift properly.
Each of us must necessarily have the courage of our convictions to live properly and in 
accordance with the teachings of God. By this manner of living, each of us can thank God
for the most valuable gift of life that we have received from God.


 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

A Sermon of Love

What should you always say
When you take the time to pray?
It is for certain and sure
that, if you heart is good and pure,
you should thank God above
for all of the wonderful love
that we are privileged to share every day.
We should all understand and see 
that God wants us all to be
kind enough to give and receive love,
so that God's whole world can be
as peaceful as the exemplary dove
When your time prayer is done
and you have learned another lesson of love,
God will smile upon you from above
and be most assured and very proud
that you know, that behind every cloud
there might be the brightly shining sun.
Then God will be very happy to see
how sharing love has affected you and me.
I hope and pray
that some day
God will smile upon me
and grant me a way to see
how to appropriately respond and give back
to God, the love that God has given to me, Jack.
May god always bless  and love you and me.

The Friend

The friend is the one who is always there
when no one else seems to care
about the sad things that are happening to you.
The friend is the person who is always around
to listen to the sorrowful, weeping sound
of you of you cryingwhen you are blue
and don't knowwhich way to turn or what to do.
The friend is the companion who'll stay by your side
and keep on trying when you think that everything has been tried.
The true friend will help you when you're feeling sad.
The real friend will make you be glad
to awaken another day and continue on your way.
As you travel day by day
down life's trail,
you remember all the while,
that, if everything seems to fail,
your friend will greet you with a smile.
Even though you are wearing a frown
because the world has you down,
your friend will stay with you through all of your pain.
You friend will help you get up again.
When you are again on top
and everything seems fine
and you're again feeling great,
your friend will sat to you: "mate
always remember this final line:
my love for you will never stop!"


The Lake

A drive I did take
all along the lake
I went there just for the view.
Little did I know, when I did go,
what the journey would do.
With my wide open eyes
I looked to the skies
and in the darkness of the night
somehow I saw only what was bright.
The lights from a boat
as it was afloat.
The headlights of a car
I  could see from afar.
The lighting from  a street light showed
even though it only dimly glowed.
I saw the colors of a traffic signal from a distant range
as the red, yellow and green lights did in sequence change.
As I gazed throughout the sky,
I saw the lights of airplanes that flew by.
The lights fro many a house window
showed a faint distant glow.
It gave me a feeling of great delight
to see the stars as they showed their light. 
I saw the waves on the lake
as on the shore they did break.
It made my senses come awake
As a sensual feeling my heart did make.
Thus, I know why
as I did drive by,
why something on high
bade me to drive all along the lake.

My Loving life

My life is founded upon whatever emanates from love
that comes from the most superior source above.
Because this source has made my life come about,
I will succeed through hard work, strong desires and tears.
Thus, there is absolutely no doubt
that my life will blossom and shine throughout the years.
My life will always stand tall with others,

because I have been loyal to love while being here
and I have loved my worldly sisters and brothers
who, to me, are very important and extremely dear.
My life is like a hapy family
whose dreams and ultimate role
is to accomplish one ultimate goal:
To help others live lovingly!

I do not live in an ordinary fashion.
While I live here, I listen and look around,
because I know that every sound

is filled with happiness and compassion.
Love is the primary objective of my life.
Because love  exists, I have a fulfilled life.

To those who seek to find the secret of life,
the fact is: the answer is simple:

it should be obvious that there is no secret of life!
Your senses will help you realize this,
because your life will be filled with Godly bliss
while you are enjoying life for love
from that heavenly source from above.
Why has God given senses to us ?
To let us see the beauties of nature.
To let us smell the aromatic fragrances of nature.
To let us hear the dulcet sounds of nature.
To let us taste the nectars and ambrosias that emanate
from the products of nature.
To let us touch the good earth that was produced by nature.
God, alone, is above all that is nature.
Yes, the secret of life is simple:
Just live a life of giving and receiving love !!!

 
Love And Living



I lie here in bed



and begin to weep.
I think about my past.
I know that this night of sleep could be my last.
Tomorrow, I might be dead.
I don't want to die, just now.
I hope that tomorrow, I will wake
to have another chance to make
a lasting, worldly contribution, somehow.
I,m not fearful of dying, 
but , I really want to live.
I can't keep from crying.
I have so much to give.
Many years have gone by.
I'm still living; Ithink that I know why.
There is much love in this world to receive.
That's  what I will always believe !

Of Love

As I sit in the sun
while the soft breeze is blowing,
I know that what I have done
has been well worth the doing.
I am most interested in what
is a challenge to me
every day that I live.
I hope that part of that
challenge will always be
to find another way to accept love
as well as another way to give.
Love is thezenith of my life.
It's the happiest feeling of all.
My physical strength left me for a while,
yet, love wouldn't let me fall.
Love enabled me to continue living with a smile,
while leaving behind, all physical strife.

 
Ode To Ann

We give our thanks gladly
to our dear and loving friend Ann,
who does everything that she can,
by doing a good deed
for those who are in need.
And all the while
Ann wears a smile,
even though she might be feeling badly.
It's always Ann's style
to go that extra mile
for those who are feeling sadly.
When Ann comes into our sight,
we know that she will do what is right
to help us feel cheerful.
It's nice to have a dear friend
who is so loving and thoughtful.
Ann always finds time to spend
with us, and for this, we are grateful.
Ann has many ways
to make everyone's days
become joyful and delightful.


Ode for Valerie

When you have shared love with a person,
please understand the reasons,
why, even if a person is gone,
the person's love continues to go on.
You must always remember and know
that the light of love will always glow.
Love will remain seasons after seasons,
even after the flight of the dove
has come and has long been gone.
Love will be in your heart forever
and love will leave you, never.
Please believe and have no doubt
that your supply of love
will never run out.
For as long as you shall live,
love is yours to have and give.
Believe the virtues of love
and you will never be lonely,
even if the love exists for you only.

Special Wedding Day

Dear Amanda, Jennifer and Paul:
This message is for each of you, and all.
Some day you will think about this day and see
that it was a special day for three.
Some day you will understand
why this day was especially grand.
Maybe the thought is already with you and somehow
you know that some day is here and now.
Maybe as you listen to this rhyme,
you will realize that in due course and time,
in every passing day,
in every passing way,
you canbe as happy as you are today.
You are already on your way
to achieving this happy goal
because you are already playing the role
by loving each other every day.
Now it is time for you to know
that your love will always glow
because you three made a special wedding bond
by virtue of an emotion that was deeply fond.

Seeing Love

As I stood beneath the nighttime skies
this is what I beheld with my eyes:
Each bright, shining, twinkling star
seemed to be looking back at me
as if to say from afar;
"light the way for others, as do we."
Is it possible that the stars already knew
that this is something that I have always tried to do?
Can one human being on this vast earth
be so valuable, have as much worth
as any brightly glistening star
that lights the heavens from afar ?
The illumination of the star represents a human smile.
The star is showing us that it is worthwhile
to help the world by loving others
as though they were our dearest brothers.
As I gaze at the stars above,
I hope that, somehow, my sincere love
for others will always be as bright
as all of the stars that smiled at me tonight.

Ode To Karen

The sound of your voice singing is as melodious as chimes ringing.
The dulcet tones that I hear while you are singing
are as cheerful as the chirping of a bird, as it is winging.
The pleasant sounds of your chords lilting
are like the sparkling water in a brook, rippling.
Your music transmits a feeling of happiness and cheer.
Therefore, I will always love you, my dear.
While your singing is beautifully flowing, 
your smile is happily bright and glowing.
Your eyes, like diamonds, sparkle and shine
as I pensively gaze into them with mine.
I hope that everyone else can understand
that your love is deep and grand.
The music that emanates from your heart, with love,
is as serene as the peaceful dove.
The sounds that you emit, somehow, are not like any other,
because they remind me of a soft, sweet, loving kiss from my mother.
May your life always be filed with happiness,
good luck, good health, love and brightness.
Please remember, even though we may be apart,
fond memories of you will always be in my heart.

My Mother's Love

To my Loving Mother:
I am giving to you tis verse,
to tell you that no other
love in the vast universe
or even in heaven above,
can ever replace the love
that you have given to me.
So, you should always know
that our love will only continue to grow.
Thus, forever our love shall be!
This poem is for you to keep,
to tremind you that our love is deep.
Our love has been the best
and even when we come to our final rest,
our love shall be with us in our eternal sleep.
If, by now, you have not guessed, 
I will tell you that we have been been blessed.
Because we have shared our love,
we are as the peaceful dove.
We have been blessed by Amazing Grace,
before we have reached our final resting place.
 
 
The love of God

Love is an invaluable 
from that omnipresent force
that will not let us drift
from its safe and steady course.
"What omnipresent force ?", you ask.
Think for a while and you will know.
Look now, behind life's mask
and see the sun's shining glow.
Look again and you will see,
against the backgroud of blue skies,
the beautiful autumn colors of a tree
as it gazed upon by pretty brown eyes.
Look more deeply and you will view
a majestic mountain and its pass.
Look once more and see the glistening dew
as you are resting on soft green grass.
Keep on looking until you have seen
all of the beautiful things on earth.
These beautiful things might never have been
revealed to you, for all of their worth
if you had not asked,"what omnipresent force?"
Had you only taken time to ask your heart,
you would have known from the start,
that the omnipresent force was God, of course!



A Lesson Regarding Love

In order for love to continue being the most powerful force
of emotion transferred from God to human beings, it must
necessarily be understood that we must learn to both give and
receive love. Love is the most valuable gift of life because
it is given to us by God, so that we may have the
opportunity to learn and practice the many meanings of this
emotion, love. God permits us to be a conduit of love while
we exist. The truest value of love can be learned when we
Learn how to exchange love with others while we exist. This
exchange of love is only a part of the lesson of love.
another part of the lesson of love occurs when we realize why
love is the most valuable gift of life. The reason being, that
love is an everlasting force of emotion, because love will
always exist. Why will love always exist? Because we all can
exchange love with each other and God. While any human
being remains in existence, love can be exchanged with God.
When a person no longer exists, part of tha person's love is
transferred to others and part of the person's love is returned 
to God. Therefore, the circle of love will continue. When there 
is no longer any existing, then all of the love that has been
transferred to us from God, shall have been returned to God
and shall continue to be the most valuable force of emotion,
because God is eternal.
