Sunday's Thanks Is it truly within me, to be some devine inspiration to a young or old heart, and cause some quick sensation; to be a mentor very wise, and leave with loving heart sage advice in trust given, or such that I may impart...? For I've never found much myself in people my own age; I find far wiser words in some young, and definitely the old sage, you'll find me with the grandkids, or people older than I listening and hearkening, to hear their words and sighs... I guess that is why I'm away from the folks that are my age why, I've already lived their lives, they've nothing for my stage so I take the new and young, and revere greatly the older ones and yet pray God my shine strengthens all under his great Son! ©KRJ 21 November 1999 Sunshine ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.

Sunshine - This is so wonderful. I feel the same way....Kids are so open and honest, and older people have so much wisdom, I love listening and learning from them. I'm sure your "shine" strengths all who you touch. Bonnie |

Ah Bonnie, thank you...I do work with some people who live in a perpetual rain forest, and while a typical rain forest is a lush, tropical, lovely area...all some people can see is the boggy floor. However, I'll do my best to warm things up for them! Thank you! Sunshine ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. Helen Keller ~~~ |

This is a wonderfu poem, I can relate to what you are saying. Teenagers are my favorite. They are so full of life and laughter. Thanks, Sunshine. Love, Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. ellie LeJeune |

Sunshine, I guess each of us must find where we fit in the best to give and to receive--It looks like you have well found yours- God bless you in the give & take of your life, David "GOD GIVES- but man must open his hand." (German Proverb) |

Sunshine I seem to find myself the same way. I used to be the youngest in the crowd, and then when I got older, found myself the oldest in the crowd. LOL Easier to talk with? Not sure...but whatever it is, God can still work  Relate to this one. |

LOLw/you, Whtdove...always the youngest, always the oldest...now I'm becoming known as a mentor...so I make sure I have plenty of haircoloring because, with His help, I'm going to be a good-looking mentor...[can't hide the crinkles around the eyes...wouldn't want to...too much character there...] Have a great day! |
