A special prayer
Every evening as I'm laying here in bed This little prayer keeps running through my mortal head
God bless my mom and dad and bless my little child and take care of my spouse when things start gettin wild....
and God there's one more thing I wish that you could do hope ya don't mind me askin' but 'PLEASE' bless my 'puter too??
Now I know that it's not normal to bless a mother board but listen just a second while I explain to you, "MY LORD"
you see, that little metal box holds more than odds and ends. inside those small components rest a hundred of my 'BEST FRIENDS'
Some it's true I've never seen and most I've never met we've never shaken hands or shared a meal as yet...
I know for sure they like me by the kindnesses that they give and this little scrap of metal is how I travel to where they live.
by faith is how I know them much the same as I know you. I share in what life brings them from that our friendship grew.
'PLEASE' take an extra minute from your duties up above... to bless this hunk of metal that's filled with so much love.

Love Is Special
Love is special Love is sweet Love is what makes Life complete.
Love is giving Love is kind Love is joy And peace of mind.
Love is laughter Seldom tears Sharing, caring, Through the years.
Love is more Than words express But mostly Love is happiness.

What is success
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived;
This is to have succeeded. ¡¡

THE STRENGTH OF A MAN The strength of a man isn't seen in the width of his shoulders. It's seen in the width of his arms that circle you.
The strength of a man isn't in the deep tone of his voice. It's in the gentle words he whispers.
The strength of a man isn't how many buddies he has. It's how good a buddy he is with his kids.
The strength of a man isn't in how respected he is at work. It's in how respected he is at home.
The strength of a man isn't in how hard he hits. It's in how tender he touches.
The strength of a man isn't in the hair on his chest. It's in his Heart...that lies within his chest.
The strength of a man isn't how many women he's loved. It's in can he be true to one woman.
The strength of a man isn't in the weight he can lift. It's in the burdens he can carry.

If We Don't Take Chances, then We'll Never Find the Rainbows
If we don't ever take chances, we won't reach the rainbows.
If we don't ever search, we'll never be able to find.
If we don't attempt to get over our doubts and fear, we'll never discover how wonderful it is to live without them.
If we don't go beyond difficulty, we won't grow any stronger.
If we don't keep our dreams alive, we won't have our dreams any longer.
But... if we can take a chance now and then, seek and search, discover and dream, grow and go through each day with the knowledge that we can only take as much as we can give, and we can only get as much out of life as we allow ourselves to live...
Then... we can be truly happy.
We can realize a dream or two along the way, and we can make a habit of reaching out for rainbows and coloring our lives with wonderful days.

The being of being is Being; The being of nothing is none. And if you find this so much nonsense, At least it will do you no harm. Now nothing is nothing, for certain; And something is something, for sure. Since something cannot come from nothing, It must be eternally there.
And though it is hard to imagine Since time is our air and our sea, No thing will ever be nothing, Though we will not always be we.

Friend: that one special person who makes life a bit easier by just being there and listening to your problems and difficulties.
Friendship: a special bond between two people. A bond that time cannot break. It is strong like a chain, with linking hearts.

Some people will be your friend because of whom you know Some people will be your friend because of your position Some people will be your friend because of the way you look Some people will be your friend because of your possessions But the only real friends are the people who will be your friends because they like you for how you are inside Thank you for being one of the very few people in my life who is a real friend
-Poem by Susan Polis Schutz
I hope everyone enjoys this poem, especially the person I'm sending it to. You know who you are .

For butterfly lovers(I love them to) Butterflies, Oh, Butterflies, Your beauty is so rare. Butterflies, Oh, butterflies, How could anyone dare. to catch you and to hold you against your solemn will? They should just admire you and let you have your fill. of flitting here and flitting there, gathering up your daily fare of nectars from the flowers bright, from early morning until night. Butterflies, beautiful butterflies, with so many colours rare, it hurts my heart when one dies, Yet, does anyone truly care? For butterflies, butterflies, you represent new birth, from chrysalis until you die, you beautify the earth. thank you, lovely butterflies.

~THE BUTTERFLY 2~
The butterfly has so many beautiful features. Fragile, yet powerful wings adorn these creatures. They look like angels from the heavens above, A gift to fill our hearts with warmth and love. In all their splendor and strife, They are the symbol or new beginnings and life. Gliding so delicately on the breeze, taking but a moment to dance with the leaves. They stop to rest on a flower or two, to get one last drink of the morning dew. To see them fly through the air with all their pride and glory, it seems like their life is a fantasy or a charming story. If I had one wish of something I could try, it would be to be free and fly like a butterfly.
~~Morgan BretzTo all my butterfly friends

Let the rain kiss you Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops Let the rain sing you a lullaby The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk The rain makes running pools in the gutter The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night And I love the rain.
I wish it would rain here in Antwerp,it is the second heatwave this month,today it was almost 40°c ,that is to warm in the city

I Believe in Miracles I believe in rainbows and golden sunbeams i believe in hopes and dreams i believe in that old fable always told of old That at the rainbows end there's a pot of gold i believe there's some place beyond the blue Where the promise of Love and Peace is forever true i believe in me and you i believe in miracles, for i have known a few i believe in me and you i believe in miracles, for i have known a few i believe in me and you

Sonnet- Laughter If we can laugh, our heart-aches disappear! Our minds become freed off tensions and stress; If we make others laugh, they lose their fear, And become dear, starting to us caress.
Laughter is good for both the young and old; Laughter can turn a foe into a friend; Laughter can help forget our woes, be bold; Laughter can bring to grief, an early end.
Laughter is life’s most precious medicine; Laughter is soothing balm for all our ills; Laughter is euphoric much more than wine, Causing no harm to one or increase bills.
Then laugh and be merry whenever you can, For, that’s the way to live life better, man.

Murphy's Law ANYTHING THAT CAN GO WRONG, WILL GO WRONG Anything good in life is either illegal, immoral, or fattening. If everything seems to be going well, you obviously don't know what the hell is going on. Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate. A short cut is the longest distance between two points. Murphy's Golden Rule: Whoever has the gold makes the rules. The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet. It is morally wrong to allow suckers to keep their money. In order to get a loan, you must first prove that you don't need it. You will always find something in the last place you look. No matter how long or how hard you shop for an item, after you've bought it, it will be on sale somewhere cheaper. The other line always moves faster. Anything you try to fix will take longer and cost you more than you thought. If you fool around with a thing for very long you will screw it up. If it jams - force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway. When a broken appliance is demonstrated for the repairman, it will work perfectly. Build a system that even a fool can use, and only a fool will use it. Everyone has a scheme for getting rich that will not work. In any hierarchy, each individual rises to his own level of incompetence, and then remains there. There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it over. When in doubt, mumble. When in trouble, delegate. Nature always sides with the hidden flaw. A Smith & Wesson beats four aces. In case of doubt, make it sound convincing. Never argue with a fool, people might not know the difference. MURPHY WAS AN OPTIMIST.
