If You Love Someone Set Them Free

When I read these words in my younger years I never really understood what they meant. Over time and upon reflection you understand that these words are powerful and mean so many things...

In a relationship when things go bad you don't hang on you have to let go.. And when you love someone and you've done all you can do, you set them free, and if that love was true it will all come back to you...If You Love Someone Set Them Free...

As a parent you 're always afraid of letting go of your kids. You nuture them, you teach them, you watch them grow and then one day they turn around and grow up. Sometimes t's hard for parents to understand this but if they love you in return they will ALWAYS come back to you... If You Love Someone Set Them Free...

And this rings true for all your relationships new or old, love or business... sometimes we have to learn to let go...letting go, even though it brings you pain, it is the ultimate sacrifice for both parties... therefore .. If You Love Someone Set Them Free...

and you will find life goes on....

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours; if they don't they never were. - Richard Bach

Butterfly - Mariah Carey
When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imagined I could

Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands
And watch you rise

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandoned into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage
To be all that I can
And truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandoned into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I can't pretend these tears
Aren't over flowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way it feels to fly

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandoned into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

The Greatest Love of All

I LOVE this song by George Benson... besides being delivered with soooo much emotion.... the message it carries is a powerful one not only to oneself but to those who have children.

It teaches you the Greatest Love that anyone can have is the belief and self respect within yourself. But this can only be achieved when you have love, guidance support and trust from your parents. This is the greatest gift any parent can give their child... not money... not expensive gifts... all they want is LOVE.

As parents we always ask of ourselves have we done enough... are we good enough... do we give enough.... we can only but do the best we can.... educate them... feed them... teach them to be GOD fearing.... LOVE them and then trust them and let them go.... if you have done your job they will always come home... for they know this is the only place they can get unconditional love.

The Greatest Love of all it's easy to achieve....learning to love yourself is the Greatest Love of All...and if by chance that special place that you've been dreaming of..... leads you to a lonely place find your strength in LOVE.. ....
