There is something wonderous about a hug.
It is a way of saying,”you are special to me.”
A step beyond the boundries of formal convention.
The assurance of a heart touching a heart.
A touch of comfort to calm a grieving heart.
A cheek touching a cheek
with a kiss of greeting.
Whether a man to man
or woman to woman
or man to woman
or woman to man
there are no limits to showing
our love for another.
We are all souls in His creation
with an eternal bond between us all.
The hug is the sign of our sisterhood and brotherhood.
Let it not become forgotten in your life
it is precious honey to the wounds of this life
forever giving
forever loving
in the wonder of love
to us all.

Within each of us there is a song.
The song is like no other
it is ours alone.
It is the song of our lives upon this earth.
It sings of our victories
it remembers our defeats.
Would we have shown courage
by never loved at all?
Would we have shown our creator
a lack of passion
by not living totally in the gift of time
that He so generously gave us?
I lived as a man
a creation of my God
in the singing of my song.
In those I loved
I gave more than I received.
If one was to be hurt by the ending of a love
I was always hurt the most.
I gave all in my being to protect the ones I loved.
In the pains that I endured
I suffered in their recall
more than once.
My song renders no apologies
for being made in His image.
The Passions is what separates us
from the wooden fence post.
I have breath
I have cried
I have laughed till I cried again.
In so doing have I found
the humor of my creator
in making my song
one that will be heard
throughout eternity.

“How am I to trust the wisdom of your king
who sends you with this message
if he hides his real name behind a false one?”
He went on further in his discourse by saying,
“Does your king lack courage.
Does he not have the backbone of a man
or is he really a woman
hiding behind a man’s name
who claims to be a king?”
The king then had his soldiers remove
the servant from his presence.
The servant’s head was cut off
before the sun set upon that day.
Each day I am constantly amazed
by the many web sites and forum boards
that carry postings of individuals
who use cover names out of fear
instead of their own real names.
How can one take any of these postings seriously
when the posters hide behind a mask?
For all we know
it can be a simple program on a computer
somewhere generating all these postings
across the net in an attempt
to control public opinion.
