@ZSA_MD -  So many lessons we learn as we travel through this life...... words and touch can be so easily exchanged, and so many people use them with little regard for consequence.......sincerity is treasure beyond measure. I know the value of honesty and tender caring..... and that is how I hope to live my life. I value those characteristics in my friends, and choose to always be true to and with my friends, and even those whom I do not know. I love William Shakespeare's words; "to thine own self be true". I hope that carries out in all of my life.

@Erika_Steele - I agree and I know that you're not into mushy stuff but I can't help but agree with the song says. If it isn't real, and all it is , is a flash in my mind like the flash of a camera...... then, anymore, I'd just as soon .... not. The years have taken their toll, and I have given away, all to many pieces of myself. I'll hold on to what's left, and maybe one day find that other one who " knows how promises go" for the rest of my life.
