6,000 YEAR OLD COUPLE

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Old couples know it doesn’t matter what anyone thinks of our bodies.
We’re pleased to know that sex has nothing to do with happiness.
It’s good to know there’s is at least one person who needs our help.
We discovered that no sex is good sex. Being together is fine.
Love is the joy of  listening to each other talk about nothing.
We know what we mean before we say it, but we listen anyway.
Our aches and pains are more interesting than the evening news.
There’s comfort in the sound of snoring. We’re both still here.
I know I’ll miss you and you’ll miss me when we’re gone.
Most of all, we know we’re always together no matter where we are.

FROM NOTHING

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

FROM NOTHING

our strength is understanding.
old paradigms we tear away.
the lies of old are yielding…
truth builds a better way!

what is our ancient legacy?
from nothing we cause everything….
we’ve lived for an  eternity:
we are immortal spirit beings…
