Be Safe My Friends

When my friends feel bad, so do I Something in me just turns and I feel sick What is this and why I can't make them happy, i can't make them tick I want to try, I just try and I try The world is a place with such sorrow There should be smiles for you all I wish that my tomorrow Could glue all your pain on a wall As a memory, to only recall Just be safe my friends, just take care I love you, I'll be here, go nowhere

Reminds me of the emotions in one of my earlier posts, "With A Pen." I love this and the fact that much impact is delivered thru effective construction. This was a tenderly thorough Wham, Pow, Bam and I will keep loving it! A Wow. Please Dear Heart - Trust in the plan, let go - let it GOOO - what you cannot control, let go, merely stay it in prayer form to positively be delivered positively by the universe! Seriously - A Wow Gem of light ... CayCay

I think you absorb others' pain too much Darren. A trick I learned at ante natal clinic was to ask the mothers to call out the letters of their symptoms on screen, not the actual symptoms. I had noticed I was feeling bad when they were. You will have to protect yourself in a similar way somehow.

Wow what thoughts. May this entry be a poetic expression letting your friends know you care. Know your friends care also especially when they keep returning and reading. Have a good weekend Darren.

What is this and why? It is a caring heart that would do anything for his friends. This was definitely uplifting Darren and hopefully those who are feeling low will read this a be lifted by your friendship.
