Mimi, I think through hurt we learn to accept grace, letting go. In my profession I have seen this many times. raskin

thank you for your comment,what might that be,if i may ask?

best way too put a painful soul i guess. Ive seen alot of pain, and this works. thank you.

thankyou for your comment

I have seen that too… many times
(Since pain itself is proof of life)
It makes us more human and closer to who we really are.

Thanks for sharing it!

Thank you clare jane for the read and the comment,i appreciate it..yes i have met beautiful and graceful people and they usually are those who have gone thru so much...

I think today of Tony Snow who showed so much grace while battling cancer. He was so graceful under pressure. Must be why he made such a great White House press secretary.

joyce

Thank you grace...

Mimi... that is a very astute observation! I touch or hint on this in a couple of stanzas in my poem "Angell's Heart":(it is in directly implied)

All the tears and sadness
Have kept your heart healing
But without the sadness
You would have no feeling

And a healing heart
Is like a river of hope
It’s all a junkie has
When he runs out of dope

Good Job!
