And I love coming back, after a few more posts have been put up, and seeing where the thread leads.  I don't know about any "rules" against talkin' about what is in MY heart.  And if that touches others', well...so much the better.   Lola, I can only tell you something from my personal experience.  And it was very recently.  Something I wanted, more than life itself, (other than a Harley...hehe), it, not only didn't happen,  well,  it imploded all around me.      My heart will feel this pain, for quite some time to come.  But my heart also feels what was there in the first place,  AND what was ALWAYS there...   God's love.  Sometimes, HE is trying to teach us something.  And sometimes, that lesson will be a painful one.   I had to learn quite a few things the hard way.   I'm stubborn. 
HE's still showin' up for work with me every mornin', tho. All things, work together for OUR good.
And I, for one believe that, with all my heart.  And when I bother to listen, the lesson's go that much easier. JMHO, K?
