sid said this to you:then tell him to enjoy his exsitence in anger if that makes him happy.....or better, tell him to forget the concept of "God", and just do whatever he needs to be happy.....and when, or if he gets stuck, come ask for your assistance...leave it at that....but, get that "God" idea out of his head....its messin' with him.

I'm sorry but could explain this more as I don't understand why your friend Sid is meaning by tell him to forget about God.

Also sorry I never asked wot God said when you prayed to him that night but I've had things on my mind l8ly and completely forgot about it. Please accept my apology and fell free to tell me wot he said anytime. Either by posting it here or PM'ing me.

When you overcome a problem, you become stronger and your vision becomes broadened... the older you are, the more problems you overcome, and the more you learn. The more years you live, the longer the story, the better the insight, the better the story.... For this reason, it is very useful when you take time to LISTEN TO YOUR ELDERS. It dont matter how old you are, whatever you have gone through, those older than you are more experienced and can have some very important input. Im not saying that you should take your elders words as the final one, but, take into account what they say cause you can use there experience to guide you. Not to say you outta do what they do, but again, its almost like having other parts of you which have taken the different forks in the road for you already and you dont gotta make your choices using the theory of "hmmm..lets just take a chance..." haha....sometimes thats fine, but, it wouldnt hurt to know the different things that are possible..ya know? For some people, this is hard to take in cause you just dont believe me..but, look at it this way. If your 13, 20, 35, or even 40....imagine all the things you have learned; imagine what you have learned at your age...now, just picture how much more you will know 10 years down the line...now picture yourself, even now, trying to give ANOTHER younger person some advice and them ignoring you even if you've gone through what they are, at the moment...you gonna be like..."whats wrong with them? dont they know i have been in relationships before?" (or whatever situation it is)...thats the description of an elder for you man..fo real!! They at least desevere SOME respect for getting through life, dont they?? it aint easy man..and for some of them to get to 60 or 70 or 80?? dangz man..you outta give them their respect... Now lastly, i want ya'll to recognize that....YOU ARE ALSO ELDERS....dont be shy to give your input and all that to those younger than you...most young people right now are saying "i can make my own decisions...im mature enough"...it aint about maturity here...its about broading your view so you make some honest choices in your life...being mature is to see more things... man..im tierd as hell...i dont know if this will make much sense but, another burden i was feeling...peace.

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.

It doesn't interest me how old you are
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dreams
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow
if you have been opened by life's betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your
fingers and toes
without cautioning us to
be careful
be realistic
to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me
is true.
I want to know if you can
disappoint another
to be true to yourself.
If you can bear the accusation of betrayal
and not betray your own soul.
If you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty
even when it is not pretty
every day.
And if you can source your own life
from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure
yours and mine
and still stand on the edge of the lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon,
"Yes."

It doesn't interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after a night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.

It doesn't interest me who you know
or how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand
in the center of the fire
with me
and not shrink back.

It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom
you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you
from the inside
when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself
and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.

These Are My Wishes For You”
     Sandra Sturtz Hauss  
   



May you find serenity and tranquility
in a world you may not always understand.

May the pain you have known
and the conflict you have experienced
give you the strength to walk through life
facing each new situation with courage and optimism.

Always know that there are those
whose love and understanding will always be there,
even when you feel most alone.

May a kind word,
a reassuring touch,
and a warm smile
be yours every day of your life,
and may you give these gifts
as well as receive them.

May the teachings of those you admire
become part of you,
so that you may call upon them.

Remember, those whose lives you have touched
and who have touched yours
are always a part of you,
even if the encounters were less than you would have wished.
It is the content of the encounter
that is more important than its form.

May you not become too concerned with material matters,
but instead place immeasurable value
on the goodness in your heart.
Find time in each day to see beauty and love
in the world around you.

Realize that what you feel you lack in one regard
you may be more than compensated for in another.
What you feel you lack in the present
may become one of your strengths in the future.
May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility.
Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience.

May you find enough inner strength
to determine your own worth by yourself,
and not be dependent
on another's judgment of your accomplishments.

May you always feel loved.

when your people died
they went to sing with the angels
when your heart died
it visted the angels too
but for all the tears you've shed
God has kept you
warm and with a little bit of love
in a time when you needed His and mine
and I want you to know
even though I may not know
how much you hurt
that I am here for you and will be
til the end of time
I heard angels voices yesterday
I heard your peoples from far away
and I heard your heart singing so true
its waiting to hear I love you
from you.Life is an open road
of promises yet unseen
come down this road with me
and we will listen to the angels sing...........
