Also, I received an E-mail the other day from a woman, her name is Brenda.  She has Small Cell Lung Cancer and I was so touched by her Courage that I was compelled to do something for her because of the Inspiration I felt just by being on her site and reading her Journal, which is called, "My Journey To God!" I made her a Dedication Page and I call it, I Met An Angel Today! You may view it here.  I truly do hope you stop by her site and read her Journal, for I know it will change your life as it has mine and maybe you too will feel as if you have been Touched By An Angel. You can click onto the banner below to visit Brenda and while you are there say Hi to her for me and also let Brenda know that we are all praying for her. God Bless You

I asked God for a Flower, he gave me a Garden....
I asked God for a Tree and he gave me a Forest....
I asked God for a River, and he gave me an Ocean....
I asked God for a Friend and he gave me YOU.
Thank You Dear Friends, for just being.
God Bless.

~What I've Learned Along The Way~

I've learned that you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.

I've learned that it's taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.

I've learned that you should always leave
loved ones with loving words. It may
be the last time you see them.

I've learned that we are responsible
for what we do no matter how we feel.

I've learned that either you control your
attitude or it controls you.

I've learned regardless of how hot and steamy
a relationship is at first, the passion fades and
there better be something else to takes it's place.

I've learned that hero's are the people who do what has
to be done when it needs to be done,
regardless of the consequences.

I've learned that money is a lousy
way of keeping score.

I've learned that my best friend and I can do
anything or nothing and have the best time.

I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to
kick you when you're down,
will be the ones to help you get back up.

I've learned that sometimes I'm angry
and that I have a right to be,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I've learned that true friendship continues to grow even
over the longest distance,
Same goes for true love.

I've learned that just because someone doesn't
love you the way you want them to,
doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

I've learned that maturity has more to do with what
types of experience you've had,
and what you've learned from them,
and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I've learned that your family won't always
be there for you, It may seem funny,
but people you aren't related to can take care of you
and love you and teach you to trust people again.
Families aren't biological.

I've learned no matter how good a friend is they're
going to hurt you every once and a while,
and you must forgive them for that.

I've learned that it isn't always enough
to be forgiven by others, but sometimes
you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I've learned that our backgrounds and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
but we are responsible for who we become.

I've learned that just because two people argue,
doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue, doesn't mean they do.

I've learned that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.

I've learned that you shouldn't be so eager
to find out a secret,
it could change your life forever.

I've learned that two people can look at the exact
same thing and see something totally different.

I've learned that your life can change in a matter
of minutes by people who don't even know you.

I've learned that even when you think you have no more
to give, when a friend cries out to you,
you will find the strength to help.

I've learned that creditials on the wall doesn't
nessicarily make you a decent human being.

I've learned that the people you love and care
about the most in life are
taken from you way too soon.

Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.
Love never fails.
~I Corinthians 13:4-8~
