Good-Byes
By Mona Lease
Hi, all!! I attended a Celebration of Life. I've never been to one. So
I submit the following to you because I thought it was unique - you
could feel the love in the air...and people were actually saying they
could feel it.
"If I speak in all the languages known to man and the angels, but do
not have love, I am like a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I can
know the future, know all mysteries, and have all knowledge; if I have
faith so I can say to the mountain: "Move from here to there," but I do
not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all I own to feed the poor,
and if I give my body to be burned as a sacrifice, but do not have
love, it all gains me nothing. Love waits patiently a long time
and is kind; love does not envy others, does not seek it's own reward,
does not brag, does not walk and talk full of pride, is not easily
provoked, does not keep a record of wrongs; is not happy about wrong
action or talk; love is happy with the truth, love bears all things,
believes all right things, hopes all right things, endures all things.
Love does not fail.
Now these three things are left: Faith, Hope, Love. And the greatest of
these is Love."
Excerpt from 1 Corinthians 13
I know where this life comes from
And I raise my hands to the sky
Thankful every day
For helping me get by.
Never caused no problems
I leave well enough alone
No love for money
I'd rather give you all I own.
So give me a fire
A few family and friends
A full moon and a million stars
And a night that never ends.
Cause I'm like a
stone
Skippin' across
a quiet lake
Bouncin' here
and there
Always leavin'
my own wake.
I might sink to
the bottom
But that's a
chance I'm gonna take
I'm just tryin'
to make it
To the other
side - I'm like a stone.
Never been complicated
What you see is what you get
I love it when life's easy
And today's the best day yet.
I know I'm a dreamer
And one or two came true
I just close my eyes
And I can go anywhere I want to.
There's nothing wrong with having fun
And listening to the wind
I got a new idea everyday
And I'm sure to find a friend.
Like A Stone....Erin Higgins/Jeff Madewell
