A little something

I was reading & came across this.....


ViNCENT VAN GOUGH
Love is something eternal---the aspects may change, but not the essence. There is the same difference in a person before & after he is in love as there is in an enlightened lamp & one that is burning. The lamp was there & it is a good lamp, but now it is shedding light, too, & that is its real function


ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON
So long as we love, we serve. So long as we are loved by others I would almost say we are indispensable, & no man is useless while he has a friend.


JOHANN WOLFGANG VON GOETH
That is the true season of love, when we believe that we alone can love, that no one could ever have loved so before us, & that no one will love in the same way as us.


VICTOR HUGO
The greatest happiness in the world is the conviction that we are loved, loved for ourselves, or rather loved in spite of ourselves.

Thanks guys hug flower rose to you all. I'm sad because a resident went to heaven today where I work. She will be missed. She was so seewt & kind. She was 105. I even had put her in a body bag. crying heart wings . But now she's in a better place may she rest in peace peace

I know its part of life but its not easy. I won't forget her. Today they were handing out cresages(spelt wrong) to the residents & she was wearing one when we came on. It was pretty. I even took a picture of the flower when it was on her table. I will have memories of her. sad flower peace teddybear
Those quotes caught my eye tonight.
Those words spoke to me tonight

Eternal flame
Close your eyes
Give me your hand
Do you feel my heart beating

Eternal flame by the bangles
That song is on my mind now
Thanks jac yay hug that I think that's the right spelling. Yes she had good innings in life. For her 100th birthday they made her a colleage(wrong spelling?) . Thank you jac again hug handshake
Zweet, I'm so sorry to hear that.
105 years is an amazing age. She has
lived her life to the fullest I'm sure
and now she is resting in peace with
our heavenly father in Heaven.....
Are you, like myself, a bit on the dyslexic side, Zweet? The difference being I'm sitting here with my very well thumbed, trusty Oxford English dictionary? laugh

If so, this the blind leading the blind, but I think the spelling you were looking for was "collage", from the French literally meaning "gluing".

(I had to look "gluing" up twice because I'd forgotten by the time I'd put my dictionary back on the window sill. laugh )
Hi jac....I must be but I was close laugh I did pretty good especially late at night laugh . I don't have spell check but sometimes it could be handy. Oh well laugh but its all good grin
A big hugs to ya Zweet.....death is never easy......May her memory be eternal! hug hug hug hug
Oh yay, all hail spellcheck. yay I don't have it either at the moment.

Do you have an arty streak and a good eye for colours?
Marina
Thanks wave hug death is not always easy....no matter who. And thank you again. hug

Hi jac.....in a way I do kinda have a artsy streak & I do have a good eye for color. On the weekend I was babysitting....we made & played with playdough. I actually was creative with what I made lol :laugh . And how about yourself? : grin
