@loaf,

Wishing you and your family peace and health. ✨✨

@ddshoppy,

Happy Holidays with your family in S. California. ✨ The week is passing very quickly.
Hope you have all your fall decorations up. How are the grandchildren doing?

Keep safe and enjoy this beautiful week. ✨

@xango,

Good day in Florida. ✨😎Hope it is nice and sunny for you. OZ is very nice for the moment.
We do have some strong rain coming in a couple of hours. 😎 My yards and flowers can use
the rain. ✨

Oh tomorrow is Veteran’s Day I am from a military family and this day means a lot 🌹

Let’s have some soup. 😎✨😘

@Sheba
Hello Sheba, and Happy Veterans Day to you. Hubby is off tomorrow and took Friday off too. I love soups too, even in the hot Florida Summer. It’s a feel good meal, add a salad, or a little bread makes it even better. I certainly have put on some pounds, and because of my hip I don’t get to be active. But in my younger years hubby and I would dance all night long.
I ment to mention, I too have a KitchenAid, it makes it easy to make bread and all other baking I do. Lately I have been using the food processor for granting, chopping. I use it to make pastry dough too. Take Care Sheba.

@xango,

4 yours husband all who have served our country. ✨ I have about 20 servicemen in
my family. 😎

@Sheba

Good Morning Sheba, hubby is fast asleep. He came home very tired, he had meetings, welcomed a new employee by showing the area. And did a few interviews to hire more people. And on top of that got the booster shot. In the morning at coffe time I will show him your post. He retired as Senior Chief Petty Officer. Take care Sheba.

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast. ✨I hope your husband’s PT goes well. If you make it
to the Farmer’s Market have a good time. ✨😘

Everyone is fighting to get their lives back with this Covid-19 going around. I am frankly sick
of it. I know you will Mask up and protect you and your husband. I still live my life just a
different I don’t go in big crowds and I am not ready to eat in a restaurant just yet. Oodie
when the time is right and it’s a go all I want is a nice meal out with my husband and a great
movie. I do want to see the nutcracker I miss my live shows so much. ✨💕

Have a safe day Oodie. ✨😘

@sheba2011

We are back from the appointment. Hubby found the place spotless and the exercise good though he was in pain following. He has exercise homework to do at home as well. I had no idea where this place was. Yes, it is on the same floor as my mam. But, as soon as the double doors open, it is right there on the left. So it is easy in and out, And yes, there is a waiting room, This therapist mentioned that hubby should not be behind the wheel as yet. Looks like I’m in the driver’s seat. He now has an appointment Friday morning and one next Monday. Actually he will be going twice a week until after his doctor appointment in December with the orthopedist. d

Yes we made a stop at the Farmer’s Market. Hubby returned to the car. Though I was there long before their closing time, they were taking items off the shelves right and left. Looks like they are getting ready for that big turkey feast. I did notice that most of their prices have now gone up over $2 from last week. And from my experience with this market is that as soon as the prices come down they will also follow the course. There new Ad comes out tomorrow. It will be interesting to see what the price of turkeys will be this year. Last year I was able to purchase a fresh turkey for $.99/lb. Can you believe that turkey day is in two weeks…..YIKES.

I see we both think alike. We have not signed up for a cruise or made a flight appointment for going North. We have yet to enjoy a movie in the theaters or gone to a live play or concert. We have gone to our Asian restaurant and the place was very clean and the attendants did wear a mask. Actually we did also until the food was brought to our t able. There are times when we really feel like going out, but then we get scared and make something home. We have ordered out for pizza, but that’s the only thing so far. We know what it is like to be ill and we really do not want to go through that again—-EVER. Will we ever be brave enough to go out and about. Probably. But not today. And, yes, we both wear our masks even to therapy. Oh, forgot to mention, I still do all my other shopping from home, Have not been to Tuesday Morning or Homegoods in over a year, That also includes IKEA, Christmas Tree Shops, etc.. Been to the wholesale clubs, but that'[s about it,

@oodiebom,

I am just being careful I will see my Oncologist next month and he is also hematologist.
I will leave no stone unturned I want him to check everything. 😎 This game is over as of
next month I should get a clean bill of health. ✨

@taci,

Good morning in S. California I hope this is a great day for you. 😘✨😎🌹
I have been a nice long walk today and my mind and body feels great. I love it
when the endorphins kick in. 😜

Taci if you need help with the yams or sweet potatoes let me know.

If you are able to hike enjoy the view. 😎

Happy Trails to you. 🎶🎶😘

Sheba, awe so sweet of you to offer aid with my yam or sweet potatoes. thanks! Will let you know.
We will eat here at home but most likely i won’t be cooking too much. Will have to wait and see.
If you are cooking, maybe start collecting the items as prices are hiking up and up.
Have a good evening!

@taci,

I have been a busy little bee and I am well stocked. ✨😎 I saw this coming my daughters
and our are already stocking up. Our kids do not play around.

I want to wish you a nice Veterans Day. 🌹 Taci remember you can get yams in a can.

I have a home-made recipe and it will taste great. 💕

@71flowerchild,

Howdy in Texas and if you are in New Mexico have a wonderful trip. ✨😘

Give Jewell and Little D a nice OZ pet. 😎 Check in when you can.

I love your cabin there in New Mexico I hope you see the horses again. 🌹💕

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon in the ‘burgh. 😘✨Lady how are you today? This week is going fast.

Veterans Day is tomorrow this entire year is going fast. 😜 How is your mother?

I am glad you have all your medical appts out of the way. Yay! 😘💕

Have fun this afternoon OZ will have some strong rain coming. 😎✨

Enjoy!

@sheba2011

A special thanks to my bartender for always coming through!💖 My husband is a vet and we will be going to IHOP tomorrow for his free red, white and blue breakfast – that is his favorite. Texas Roadhouse is right across the street and they are giving out vouchers for a free meal so will most likely stop for that after breakfast. The vets in the ‘burgh can eat all day long with all the free offers.🤣 Tomorrow night to the hockey game.

Mom and sis are good. I will most likely head up there on Saturday. Very chilly this weekend. We will be getting your rain tomorrow evening.☔ You and Poppy be careful of any coyotes while you’re walking in the dark this evening.👀

@shoelady60,

We just had a big thunderstorm for the past three hours I think it is over. Yikes! I will
inspect everything in the morning as everything is pitch dark. 😜

Happy Veterans Day to your husband and all who served. 🌹 Enjoy those pancakes. 💕

I thank your husband for his service. ✨

@kittengirl,

Good morning in Cali here is to a good day. Sending kitty hugs Kitten to all your
fur babies. ✨😘

Happy Fall to you and the kitties. ✨✨

Everyone Has a Story

Every person on this planet has a story to tell, something that makes them unique, adding to the whole.

It’s easy to forget sometimes that everyone has a story to tell if we take the time to listen. We are so accustomed to hearing the stories of people in the news that we sometimes lose track of the fact that the random stranger on the bus also has a fascinating story about where they came from and how they got to be where they are. The sheer variety of paths taken in this world, from farmers to CEOs to homeless people to world travelers, is indicative of how much we can learn from each individual. Sometimes the shy, quiet person at work has the most amazing life story and the biggest dreams, it is up to us to take the time to find out.

Some people travel a path of wealth and privilege, while others struggle with only themselves to rely on, and both have great stories to tell. Each person learns lessons, makes choices, and develops a unique perspective, which only they can claim and share. Even two people who have had very similar lives will have slightly different experiences, leading them to a different point of view, so each person remains a treasure trove waiting to be explored. When we take the time to ask questions and listen, we find that every person has a fascinating story to tell and an utterly unique perspective from which to tell it.

Bearing this in mind, we have the opportunity to approach the world around us in a new way. There is never any reason to be bored at a party, or on the bus, or in a conversation with a stranger. When we retain the spark of curiosity and the warmth required to open someone up, we always have in front of us the makings of a great story. All we have to do is ask. 😎✨

Touch Me in the Morning
Song by Diana Ross

Touch me in the morning
Then just walk away
We don’t have tomorrow
But we had yesterday
Wasn’t it me who said that
Nothing good’s gonna last forever?
And wasn’t it me who said
Let’s just be glad for the time together?
It must’ve been hard to tell me
That you’ve given all you had to give
I can understand you’re feeling that way
Everybody’s got their life to live
Well, I can say goodbye in the cold morning light
But I can’t watch love die in the warmth of the night
If I’ve got to be strong
Don’t you know I need to have tonight when you’re gone?
‘Till you go I need to lie here and think about
The last time that you’ll touch me in the morning
Then just close the door
Leave me as you found me, empty like before
Wasn’t it yesterday
We used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didn’t we run away and hope
That time wouldn’t try to find us (Didn’t we run)
Didn’t we take each other
To a place where no one’s ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight
‘Cause you’ll never take me there again
Let me watch you go
With the sun in my eyes
We’ve seen how love can grow
Now we’ll see how it dies
If I’ve got to be strong
Don’t you know I need to have tonight when you’re gone?
‘Till you go I need to hold you until the time
Your hands reach out and touch me in the morning
(Mornings where blue and gold and we could feel one another living)
Then just walk away
(We walked with a dream to hold and we could take what the world was giving)
We don’t have tomorrow
(There’s no tomorrow here, there’s only love and the time to chase it)
But we had yesterday
(But yesterday’s gone my love, there’s only now and it’s time to face it)
Touch me in the morning…

Exhale (Shoop Shoop)
Song by Whitney Houston

Everyone falls in love sometime
Sometimes it’s wrong, and sometimes it’s right
For every win, someone must fail
But there comes a point when
When we exhale (yeah, yeah, say)
Shoop, shoop, shoop
Shoop be doop, shoop, shoop
Sometimes you’ll laugh
Sometimes you’ll cry
Life never tells us, the when’s or why’s
When you’ve got friends, to wish you well
You’ll find your point when
You will exhale (yeah, yeah, say)
Shoop, shoop, shoop
Shoop be doop, shoop, shoop
Hearts are often broken
When there are words unspoken
In your soul there’s answers to your prayers
If you’re searching for a place you know
A familiar face, somewhere to go
You should look inside yourself
You’re halfway there
Sometimes you’ll laugh
Sometimes you’ll cry
Life never tells us, to wish you well
You’ll find your point when
You will exhale (yeah, yeah, say)
Shoop, shoop, shoop
Shoop be doop, shoop, shoop

Where Is the Love
Song by Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack

Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
You said, you’d give to me
As soon as you were free
Will it ever be?
Where is the love?
You told me that you didn’t love him
And you were gonna say, goodbye
But if you really didn’t mean it
Why did you have to lie?
Where is the love?
You said, was mine, all mine
Till the end of time
Was it just a lie?
Where is the love?
If you had, had a sudden change of heart
I wish that you would tell me so
Don’t leave me hangin’ on the promises
You’ve got to let me know
Oh, how I wish, I never met you
I guess, it must have been my fate
To fall in love with someone else’s love
All I can do is wait
That’s all I can do, yeah yeah
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?)
Where is the love? (Where is the love?

Smokey Robinson
“Quiet Storm”

Soft and warm a quiet storm
Quiet as when flowers talk at break of dawn, break of dawn
A power source of tender force generatin’, radiatin’
Turn me on, turn them on

You short-circuit all my nerves
Promising electric things
You touch me and suddenly there’s rainbow rings

Quiet storm, blowin’ through my life
Oh, quiet storm, blowin’ through my life
Oh, blow baby

Windy sigh, weaken my
Butterfly caught up in a hurricane, hurricane
Lucky me, I’m better free
Suddenly I’m caught up in your somber rain

Shower me with your sweet love
I will bathe in every drop
Through all the seasons let it pour and never stop

Quiet storm, blowin’ through my life, through my life
You’re just like a quiet storm, blowin’ through my life

Shower me with your sweet love
I will bathe in every drop
Through all the seasons let it pour and never stop

Quiet storm, blowin’ through my life, through my life
You’re just like a quiet storm, blowin’ through my life
Blow baby, blow baby

God Bless This Child
Song by Diana Ross/Billie Holiday

Them that’s got shall get
Them that’s not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that’s got his own
That’s got his own
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don’t ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that’s got his own
That’s got his own
Money, you’ve got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you’re gone, and spending ends
They don’t come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don’t take too much
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that’s got his own
That’s got his own

Have a safe Tuesday Peeps! ✨✨

4 my family I have lost in the past year. 💕😘🌹

@loaf,

Good Morning in Ohio Loaf wishing you and your family a blessed season. 😘✨

@ddshoppy,

Good morning in S. California may this fall season be a good one for your family. ✨😎

@xango,

Good afternoon in sunny Florida. ✨ I hope this day finds you doing well.

Hey I am deciding what to have for Thanksgiving I am thinking of my BIL daughters. ✨

I love baking in the fall and winter my favorite is a home made sweet potato pie I learned
this from my Aunts who passed recently. I have a lapis blue Kitchen Aide Mixer that is the
best in the world you can do a lot in that mixer. 😜

OZ is sunny and it is a perfect fall day. 😘💕✨

@Sheba
Hello Sheba, how are you and Poppy today. Kind of party cloudy here with pleasant temperatures. November is flying by, Veterans Day already this Thursday. A sweet potato pie sounds wonderful. You can make the pastry a couple days ahead keeping it cold in the fridge. And the pie can be made a day ahead should you need to.
I don’t know if I told you this, my first time I had green beans as a child and sweet potatoes was in a childhood friends home. I had just arrived in the US, started going to school, how how made friends with her. Leslie Williams, she lived in the same neighborhood my sister did. And her father made me eat vegetables at their dinner table. To this day I love green beans and sweet potatoes. I often wonder how she is doing, I think she was just a few years younger than me. Because my sister enrolled me into a lower grade in school than I was due to not speaking English. And today I speak several languages which I love. Are you making any soup? Do you like potato leek soup? It’s easy to make and just a few ingredients. And can be made one day ahead.
Take Care Sheba.

@xango,

I do make and love soup I made some beef soup with lentils and other veggies in my
slow cooker over the weekend. 😘😎 Hubby really loved it.

I do make my pie from scratch it is different than all the rich desserts some of us
do not need. I like to watch all my vitals and make sure my weight stays the same.

I have not gained any weight in about eight years. I walk a lot and I stay active. ✨

This is how my Sweet Potato looks and I will make it a couple days before the big meal.
Everything is fresh the turkey and stuffing everything a lot goes into what I do.
Hubby does the hard part he cuts and chops because he can do it a lot easier than
me. This holiday will be different as I have lost so many relatives I am just trying to make
the best of the day for the few who will gather at my table. 😘💕I am thankful very thankful.

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast. ✨ I am hoping your husband appt. today goes
well. ✨Busy day for you and I hope the contractors are able to fix your floors.

Just sending you a shout out and Oodie take it easy. OZ is sunny and a nice fall day. 😘😎✨

This little cutie is having fun and my daughter is loving her Black Cat she rescued. 😘😎✨

@sheba2011

Hi. Guess what???? Hubby’s appointment is tomorrow and not today. Guess I was a little ahead of myself. Received an e-mail from the physical therapy people with additional questions. Within the questionnaire was the day, date and time of appointment. This group seems to have it all together. Oh, they also included the name of the therapist. I will have a book with me. No problems.

The farmers market is just about two miles from the medical center where husband will be going. Fingers will be crossed that his leg will be less painful so we can make a stop on our way home. There are a bunch of stores right around the corner from there. Again, that will be up to hubby.

I did purchase the Manuka Honey from HSN. It wasn’t the best price I have seen, however, wanted to give this vendor a try. I did not do auto ship at this time. I felt the presentation left a lot to be desired. I have no idea how many were sold, but they left out the important aspect of this when they did not include the medicinal qualities. Grant you what may work for one may not do the same justice for someone else. Still I felt this was needed. I am trying the Manuka for the Eustachian problem and I do find that it is helping somewhat. So far, though, I think that surgery may be in the cards, but we shall see. The ENT did say it would take a lot of time, so maybe I just have to have a bit more patience.

Still on the fence with the Covid booster. Hubby is also. Since my Mam is scheduled in January, will wait until that is over and done with. Also, hubby’s physical therapy is in the same building and on the same floor.

I will write sometime tomorrow on the physical therapy. It should be an interesting day.

Take care and enjoy your walk in moonlight with Poppy.

@oodiebom,

Oodie is this the Manuka Honey you brought? Let me know how you like it. ✨

I hope your husband does well tomorrow during PT and you are able to get to the
store. I have on the look out for more Dragon Fruit. ✨😘😎 My husband known as
Cool Hand Luke he was named that by Bichon18. I have to say he fits the description of
Paul Newman just perfect. 💕😘

Let me know how everything goes and it is going to be a busy day for you. Sleep well. 😘

@taci,

Good morning in S. California. I went for a nice long walk today in OZ the sun is bright
and warm yet it is still fall. The leaves are just beautiful I love the colorful mix of the leaves.

We did several bags this weekend. 😜

I found this image of Heidi Daus and she looks so pretty. 😎✨

Enjoy the hike and the view and as always happy trails to you. 🎶🎶

@71flowerchild,

Good morning in California may this day be a good one for you and the kitties.

Giving Away Power

We can avoid giving away our power on a daily basis by listening to our own voice of knowing.

In many ways, we are taught from the time we are children to give away our power to others. When we were told to kiss and hug relatives or friends of the family when we didn’t want to, for example, we were learning to override our inner sense of knowing and our right to determine for ourselves what we want to do. This repression continued, most likely, in many experiences at school and in situations at work. At this point, we may not even know how to hold on to our power, because giving it away is so automatic and ingrained.

To some degree, giving our energy to other people is simply part of the social contract, and we feel that we have to do it in order to survive. It is possible to exchange energy in a way that preserves our inner integrity and stability. This begins in a small way: by listening to the voice that continues to let us know what we want, no matter how many times we override its messages.

Other examples of how we give away our power are buying into trends, letting other people always make decisions for us, not voting, and not voicing an opinion when an inappropriate joke is made. But with not giving our power away we must also be aware of the opposite side, which is standing in our power but being aggressive. Being aggressive is a form of fear, and the remedy is to let our inner balance come back into play.

As we build a relationship with our power, and follow it, we begin to see that we don’t always have to do what we’re being asked to do by others, and we don’t have to jump on every trend. All we have to do is have the confidence to listen to our own voice and let it guide us as we make our own decisions in life and remember the necessity for balance. Amen! ✨✨😎

Have a great Monday Peeps! ✨✨

@loaf,

Good morning in Ohio and may this week be a safe and blessed week for you and your
family. 😘✨

@ddshoppy,

Good morning in S Cali I am multi-tasking today. I hope this week will be great for you.
Your soup sounds good. ✨😘All is well in the land of OZ. We have sun.

@xango,

Good day in Florida. ✨😎I have a lot of paper work going on. I hope this day finds you
doing well. 😘✨

Have a blessed day. ✨😘

@Sheba
Hi Sheba, I hope you were able to accomplish all that you needed to. Don’t over do it. Take time to relax. Sunny day here too, and pleasant temperatures. Made some bread today, two loaves and placed one loaf in the fridge. It will make good toast, French toast or bread pudding. The other I will have with my morning coffee. I love Bread with butter and fruit jam. Take care

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast. ✨😎Oz is sunny today and I am loving it. I have a lot of irons
in the fire on this Monday afternoon.

You seem to have a very busy week too. Try not to overdue anything. ✨

Here is some tea with the Manuka Honey. Let me know if you get the Manuka Honey
you said was sold here on HSN. ✨

@taci,

Good morning in S. California wishing you a great day. ✨😘 I have been scanning some
of my Aunts pictures my cousins send me and it is a labor of love. ✨

I don’t know how I did this with tears in my eyes. I will always know god never gives you more
than you can bear. I am also doing some pictures of my husband’s brother who recently
passed. I am on a wave today.

Taci enjoy the hike and take in all the beauty. 😘😎

Sheba, it’s nice your scanning for everyone and can get information and share pictures. I am sleeping better having most of it behind me. Too many questions and no answers.
Walked today it was nice and cool.
Hope Poppy is enjoying the cooler weather.
Hope its a good week ahead.

@71flowerchild,

Howdy in Texas may your week be safe and have a good one. Give the fur babies
a nice OZ pet. ✨😎

I hope you had good tomatoes this year. 😘😎

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon in your little corner of the world. 😘✨I hope this week will be a great
one for you. ✨

Enjoy those visits with your mom and sister. I am sorry about your team no worries
there will be another game. 😘I have to remind myself of that when my team does
not make it.

Blowing kisses at Jake’s Canvas. 😘 Always in our hearts. 💕

Enjoy! ✨

@sheba2011

Good afternoon in Oz. Today I finally finished all tests and appointments for the year and all went well, thank goodness. The blood pressure will be lower now!😊 I surely will be praying for you next month.🙏🙌

Our weather is good this week but come the weekend the predictions are in the 40s with rain/snow showers.🌧🌨 I’m never ready for snow but after these last couple months, I guess that’s better than tornadoes.🌪 That last one was way too close for comfort.😲 I think whatever you have we get a couple days later.

Happy for your team last night, I hope it continues. We’ve had a lot of injuries and covid with the hockey team early in this season so who knows what day to day. I enjoy it but they aren’t paying me anything to get upset over.😩 I was a fiercer fan years ago!

Not sure what you’re pouring but I’ll have some. Looks like cinnamon/raspberry tea. I’ll have a cup this evening, thank you much!🥰

@kittengirl,

Have a great week with kitten with your kitties. ✨

Purpose

Most humans are not born consciously knowing what their purpose is. It must be found through exploration.

Most living things belong to a particular soul group and are born knowing their purpose in life. An animal will spend its day foraging for food, taking care of itself and its young, and creating a home. No one tells an animal to do this, yet it instinctively knows how. Humans, for the most part, are not born consciously knowing what their purpose is.

Purpose gives our life meaning. When you discover your purpose, you can live your life with intention and make choices that serve your objective for why you are here on the planet. Finding your purpose is not always easy. You must embrace life wholeheartedly, explore many different pathways, and allow yourself to grow. Your purpose is as unique as you are and will evolve as you move through life. You don’t need anyone’s permission to fulfill your purpose, and no one can tell you what that purpose is. Finding and fulfilling your purpose can be a lifelong endeavor. To figure out what your purpose is, ask yourself what drives you — not what forces you out of bed in the morning, but what makes you glad to be alive. Make a list of activities that you wish you were involved in or think about a career path that you would love to embark upon. These are the endeavors that can help you fulfill your purpose and bring you the most satisfaction.

Picture yourself working on projects that don’t interest you or fulfill your purpose, yet they help satisfy your basic survival needs. Imagine how living this way each day would make you feel. Next, picture yourself devoting your time to projects that spark your imagination, inspire, excite, and satisfy you. More often than not, these activities are some of the ways that you can fulfill your life purpose. Time spent on these endeavors will never feel like a waste. Live your life with purpose, and you will feel significant and capable because every action you take and each choice you make will have meaning to it. Amen! ✨

Song by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers

Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb
I was soft inside
There was something going on
You do something to me that I can’t explain
Hold me closer and I feel no pain
Every beat of my heart
We got something going on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel needs no conversation
We ride it together, ah ha
Making love with each other, ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong?
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah ha
From one lover to another, ah ha
I can’t live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothing if you got no one
And you did walk in the night
Slowly losing sight of the real thing
But that won’t happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the message is clear
This could be the year for the real thing
No more will you cry
Baby, I will hurt you never
We start and end as one
In love forever
We can ride it together, ah ha
Making love with each other, ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong?
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah ha
From one lover to another, ah ha
Sail away
Oh, come sail away with me
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong?
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah ha
From one lover to another, ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong?
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah ha
From one lover to another, ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between

Breathe Again
Song by Toni Braxton

If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear “I love you” now and then
Will I never make love to you once again?
Please understand, if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
And I can’t stop thinkin’ about
About the way things used to be
And I can’t stop thinkin’ about
About the love that you make to me
And I can’t get you out of my head
How in the world will I begin
To let you walk right out my life
And blow my heart away
And I can’t stop carin’ about
About the apple of my eye
And I can’t stop doin’ without
Without the center of my life
And I can’t get you out of my head
And I know I can’t pretend
That I won’t die if you decide
You won’t see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear “I love you” now and then
Will I never make love to you once again?
Please understand, if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
And I can’t stop thinkin’ about
About the way my life would be
No, I can’t stop thinkin’ about
How could your love be leavin’ me
And I can’t get you out of my mind
God knows how hard I tried
And if you walk right out my life
God knows I’d surely die
And I can’t stop doin’ without
Without the rythm of my heart
No, I can’t stop doin’ without
For I would surely fall apart
And I can’t get you out of my mind
‘Cause I know I can’t deny
And I would die if you decide
You won’t see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear “I love you” now and then
Will I never make love to you once again?
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again…

After love, after love
After love, after love
After love, after love
No matter how hard I try
You keep pushing me aside
And I can’t break through
There’s no talking to you
So sad that you’re leaving
It takes time to believe it
But after all is said and done
You’re gonna be the lonely one, oh
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
What am I supposed to do?
Sit around and wait for you?
Well, I can’t do that
There’s no turning back
I need time to move on
I need love to feel strong
‘Cause I’ve had time to think it through
And maybe I’m too good for you, oh
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
Well, I know that I’ll get through this
‘Cause I know that I am strong
I don’t need you anymore
Oh, I don’t need you anymore
I don’t need you anymore
No, I don’t need you anymore
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
I really don’t think you’re strong enough now
