(894) Melvina 's Philosophy

Rating: 3.1


A wise person listens well,
dots their I’s crosses their T’s when they spell.
A hundred apologies will not erase a bad word
or deed said or done against any race.

We can’t take back the throw once we hurl the
rock.
Every special occasion must be planned with
love, memories are forever.

A family that joins hands in prayer, forms a chain
of lasting love and care.
We can not repeat time, once gone, we’ve crossed
the line.
Never having to say you’re sorry is a beautiful
ending of every great story.

THE FIRST SHRIKE 24 July 2007

Such wisdom never lived can only be descibed by one who has I am not such as you for the dice I threw I still would undo

I kind of agree with The First Strike here Melvina. Nobody is perfect and sometimes in our life we do what we regret later. Even the Lord forgives and he preached forgiveness.

If only people could be kinder to each other the world would be a far better place than it is now. Love is the word that we all need to keep in mind as we go through each day. Please and Thank you. Knowing when to help someone and knowing what to say without hurting them is indeed a very wise thing to learn. Great philosophy. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX

Melvina, I understand your words so well. I try my best not to offend, but sometimes it happens innocently. A word that is misunderstood, taken out of context. I wish your words were easy to adhere to, even though I try we all make mistakes sometimes. As the old saying go, to err is human. Great write my friend. Top marks and thanks for sharing it. David
