Flaming June's Love

XLIII. "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways..." by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861) How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thee with a passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.

"Ashes" Ashes to ashes and dust to dust that's what has become of our love and trust Love has no direction cause love has no aim love can leave you as fast as she came Meeting is such sweet sorrow cause someday we may have to part hush don't you make a sound you're gonna let me down Good things come to those who wait but good things are gone from those who are late All that I am is all I can give but with or without you my life I must live Meeting is such sweet sorrow cause someday we may have to part hush don't you make a sound you're gonna let me down Living ain't easy since you've been gone no one else can please me or make me feel home Forgetting ain't easy you stay on my mind thoughts of us haunt me can't leave them behind

Today my Mom turned an amazing 69. She is staying with Rick for another month. ANOTHER MONTH!!! I love that she is away and enjoying herself. If I could do anything for my Mom for her Birthday..... I would get all of us kids together for a long vacation all together and just laugh. I would buy her all the flowers for her porch contest this summer. I would take her one night a week to the club for dinner to hang with her buddies. I would call her three times a day and visit more often. I would let Jack sleep in her bed with her so she could snuggle with someone again. I would take her to vegas and wait for hours while she played the slots. I would keep my house neater so she wouldnt feel like she had to clean every time she came to visit. I would buy her a raincoat with all bright colors so she would'nt mind going out in the rain. I would give her a summer from twenty five years ago when she lived out the mountain and LOVED IT!!!!! I would send her back to the house in Thornhurst ...

I was at school today and thought I would google SUZITUZI. I wanted to be reminded of what I wrote last night. Guess what popped up? This post, which I had forgotten about. Dont believe someone is wanting you to get back to the flock.? I beleive this post was brought to my attention for a reason. I have nearly a thousand posts through the past four years. God is watching out for me, wants me to let go of my doubts and fears and believe. There is a sense of relief in letting go of the "need to know" Enjoy my post from 4/8/07. I certainly did. ted by Flaming June at 11:36 PM 0 comments Sunday, April 08, 2007 heaven, holding babies. So this is a picture of heaven according to someone at nasa. Im down with that idea looks ok. IS this Jesus? Is He the son of God, the salvation and one way to heaven. This is what he looks like in Suzidom Lots and Lots of flowers. My heaven blooms of every color. Trees with leaves that change the colors of fall but never fall off. Breezes that bl...

It is a bad thing to lose faith. It is bad for your overall health to not believe in something. I believe in Love, I believe in the goodness of people. I like the idea of doing for someone else so that someday a good will be shown to you. What I am losing is... my faith. I am wondering, doubting the potential of the something else. I wanted it so bad I believe I went past it. Here is my latest thought. How can we as human beings think we are so important in this vast immense universe that we will "LIVE" on. How is it that all things are "LIVING" will plants and animals move on the "Heaven"? We are specks truly specks in the vastness of the universe and beyond. Did GOD create us and place us here and not do ANYTHING with any of the other billions of planets? Is the IDEA of GOD just that? an idea to ease the thought of truly being ALONE IN THE WORLD? Not having the ALL knowing ALL seeing being keeping check on us can lead to anarchy. People would do whatev...

I sat on the swing. As an 8 year old girl setting with her darling grandfather snuggled up against him. We were never waiting for anything, nor were we post anything new. We would sit and chat, sit or swing and sing. This poem he recited to me as often as I could get him too. His voice deep and charming, spooky. Oh what a nice moment to remember. I hope I will see you again and hear you tell me this again.
