To all of my TMF friends.......

[crydun]

On a day when I've felt very lonely and irritated, I have been blessed by the friendship of many of you. This song is for all my wonderful TMF friends. Please know how much I appreciate your friendship, especially right now when bear and bunny and I are on the outs. it's nice to have something to cling to.

"Because You Loved Me"

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Thank you, Love....WE are just as blessed having you around as well...😀 😀 😀

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

Ya know. Sometimes it's these times of estrangement and conflict that end up strengthening relationships. I hope that's the case for you guys. But, there are always reasons for things happening. We're here for you. Keep up the positive attitude.

And I agree with Ray (go figure!). YOU have blessed us as well.

Ann

 

[Knox The Hatter]

Was thinkin' about you today, sweetie...was hopin' everything was OK...
Big hug for ya... 😉

 

[BigBrownEyes]

As always, Crydun, we appreciate your kind sentiments. 🙂

In my case, the pleasure is all mine. You're a terrific person! I hope you patch things up with your friends soon. I'm sure you will. Coming from someone who has had a lot of falling outs, with a lot of different people, these things tend to blow over. After holding a grudge for awhile, everyone forgets what they were even mad about.

That's just my two cents, which probably isn't worth one cent. 😀

Of course, all of us are here for you 😉

Hi Honey~
Well being new kid in town & all I have no idea what you're going through but your obvious sadness really resonates in your post...I work in a hospital helping physically and mentally disabled patients and I know despite the so-called "happy holiday" season, this can be a very painful time for a lot of people...Our number of suicide attempt patients skyrocket. Obviously not that you indicate you're going to attempt that, I just get a pretty frightening first hand look at the pressure this time of year puts on a lot of us. I do hope it all works itself out..Somehow these things usually do sooner or later. May you find peace...

 

[natural tickler]

crydun love, i love those poems and I wub ya too, keep positive and we all will be here for ya😀

 

[Ticklemmmeeeeee]

Crydun...I feel so warm and fuzzy at your including me as a special mention in your list of friends 🙂 I think you are one of the sweetest most loving people I have met online and I am blessed for having had that pleasure🙂🙂 I hope whatever discord you are experiencing with your friends resolves itself soon...If I can be of any help please do not hesitate to email me...I have been experiencing my own friendship frustrations as of late...I understand what you must be going through...best of luck to u🙂 :::hugs:::

Those Are Some Awesomely Powerful Words And Lyrics, Crydun...

*wiping a tear from the corner of my eye after reading your touching proclamation of friendship and the heart-wrenching set of lyrics that followed*

You're the best, Crydun!😀 I really feel compelled right now to hop on the echo Ann made of Venray's sentiments when he said

venray1 said...WE are just as blessed having you around as well...

My job has had me pretty busy and less available lately...but...If you need to chat, you know how to find me.

Hello friends,

Thanks so much for all of your kind responses! And my mother says that only bad people with no life are on-line (BAHHHH!) Tears welled in my eyes and my heart swelled as I read your heart-warming responses. Know that I'll be thinking of all of you warmly this holiday season although I won't be on-line as much. You are a very special group of people. Don't be surprised if you're watching TV one day and I'm on there singing that song "To some very special friends...." Peace, and thanks for the love.

 

[tommytikl]

Oh, there are plenty of bad people OFF line, with no life!

Support comes in many forms and from many places...don't take either for granted.

Happy Holiday's Crydun, the place isn't the same without your ticklish soles wiggling around 🙂

 

[sole seeker]

Been gone, just popped back in.

awww, how sweet, Baron. Did I ever mention that you are one of my favorite people walking the planet. You always know how to brighten my day. Now, if we could just transition this into a real-world everyday thing. BTW, when are your pics getting developed???
