Words  Anyone that gets to know me finds out very quickly that I am very sentimental. I have a box in my desk where I keep cards, letters and trinkets that have a special meaning to me. And now in the electronic age, there is a special folder on my computer where I keep my new age treasures. Occasionally, something will come to mind that sends me browsing through that box or that folder and today was one of those days. And as I stumbled upon on old e-mail from a wonderful woman I met here many years ago it reminded me of the simple lyrics from the Bee Gees song “Words" which goes. It's only words, and words are all I have to take your heart away. I am constantly amazed by the power of words. That power has a dark side and I detest those that misuse the power of words and leave permanent scars as they use them to attack, hurt and abuse people they supposedly love. But that power has the potential for great beauty as well and when they are crafted from the heart with the deft skill of a wordsmith they can open doors to incredible new opportunities or perfectly capture the gift of sharing ones most heartfelt emotions. The beauty of gift wrapping your feelings in the pretty paper of the written word is that the gift can be reopened again and again. The emotions are permanently preserved as they cling to each word waiting to touch your heart each time it’s opened. And so it was as I opened this beautiful message from a very special woman that was part of my life many years ago. We had dated for a couple months and following a spectacular night together she sent me an e-mail with the most beautifully written message telling me all of the qualities that made me truly amazing in her eyes. We have been apart for years yet as I read each one, my thoughts were filled with the sweetest memories of the wonderful times we shared. Words like passionate and tenderness are so apparent in the moment that they never needed to be spoken but by capturing them in the written word she preciously preserved those feelings for all time. Perhaps the greatest compliment I received was captured in her words; that were “You make me laugh and giggle and remind me of just how much fun being a in an adult’s world can be”. What a beautiful reminder of the amazing chemistry we shared. In her e-mail she described me as trustworthy, supportive, kind and generous and those words reinforced my hope that being a true gentleman is often one of the greatest ways to show a woman how much you respect and value her in your life. Even though the Brothers Gibb described them as “only words”, the mere fact that they can “take your heart away” is an affirmation of their immense power. While the magic of a kiss, the tenderness of a warm embrace or a soulful look deep into your partner’s eyes can share feelings that words could never hope to describe, never forget the enduring power of words or look past the opportunity to capture them for all time. |

Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving such a sweet compliment. A very hectic life has limited my time to write. It was wonderful to feel that special feeling of joy of knowing my thoughts resonated in such a beautiful way.

Very well said. There is a reason that I take so much time to write most of my blog posts. I'm always trying to make sure that the meaning of my written words will accurately portray what someone would hear me say if I was speaking. "The beauty of gift wrapping your feelings in the pretty paper of the written word is that the gift can be reopened again and again. The emotions are permanently preserved as they cling to each word waiting to touch your heart each time it’s opened." It is somewhat amazing that reading those words she sent to you brought back the emotions that you were feeling at the time...or made you feel a few years younger as you remembered your time with her. Nice to see you post again. I understand the busy with life thing... Thanks so much for sharing and you're very sweet comments.

Thank you for sharing that wonderful quote. I was a very small toddler during his presidency and my mother told me that I would fixate on the old black and white TV whenever President Kennedy was publicly speaking. I'm not a political person but I have tremendous appreciation for the power his words carried both as inspiration and in navigating a world on the edge of self destruction. Living by ones words is the purest form of integrity and I have thankfully never found that to be a problem. But an even bigger challenge emerges when the words come from someone that holds you in a special esteem as one needs to strive very hard to live up to them.
