What Is Your Name
What is your name, who are you?
I woke up this morning
I don't know your name.
I wonder who you are.
With a blank look on his face.
I said I am your wife
"Caroline" is my name
You don't know me....that's a shame.
I felt the hurt deep inside
I knew he didn't know it.
But he just sat there the "Look" was the same.
I told him again "Caroline" is my name.
There is no on I can blame
Alzheimer is a terrible disease
It takes away your memory.
So I will go on and tell him my name,
and the look will still be the same.
Who are you? What is your name?

LORD I KNOW WHY YOUR PEOPLE CRY.
THEY HAVE NO ROOM IN THEIR HEART FOR ME
SINCE I LOST MY MEMORY.
THEY DECIDED NOT TO STAY
AND THINK IT WILL GO AWAY.
I AM STILL ALIVE DON'T YOU SEE
A SMALL DEED IS ALL I NEED.
TO KNOW I'M NOT FORGOTTEN
A KIND WORD, A COMPASSION HEART,
A TENDER TOUCH, AN I LOVE YOU TOUCHES
MY SOUL.
THE DAYS PASS ON AND YEARS GO BY
AND THEY FIND NO ROOM IN THERE HEART
FOR ME ANYMORE.
.
I am a stranger in my own home
He doesn't know who I am
or where he belongs.
He walk's the hall's looking for his wife.
When I am beside him all the time.
He doesn't know where he belongs.
He ask me to take him home
But I don't know where home is,
You see his is home already.
He want's to know were he will sleep
This place is strange to him.
He gets up and hides his shoes and doesn't
remember where they are at.
He thinks someone took them.
This strange disease called Alzheimer's
robs you of who you are and steals
your memory.
He doesn't know where he belongs and I am
A STRANGER IN MY OWN HOME.
.
No Room
Lord I wonder why
Your people cry.
In there hearts they have no room
for the ones that have Alzheimer.
They think it will go away
So they choose to stay away.
The days pass on
still they find no room
They are scared of the unknow
But Lord why is there no room
in there hearts for us
We are not dead we are alive
To know we are not forgotten
A kind word, a compassion heart, a deed
Is all we need to know we are loved
A tender touch an I love you reaches the soul
But there is no room In there heart's
for me anymore.
THE TOUCH OF THE MASTER'S HAND
WE ARE LIKE A FINE VIOLIN THAT HE TUNES
TO PLAY BEAUTIFUL MUSIC.
I FEEL THE TOUCH OF THE MASTERS HAND
ON MY LIFE.
THE TOUCH OF THE MASTERS HAND TUNES MY
LIFE INTO THE SPIRIT OF GOD SO THAT I CAN HEAR
HIS VOICE EACH MOMENT OF THE DAY.
TO TOUCH ME AND MAKE A PERFECT HEART
HE REACHES OUT AND TOUCHES OUR LIVES
THE TOUCH OF THE MASTER'S HAND
SO WE MAY BE PERFECT IN HIM HE
PICKS US UP WHEN WE ARE DOWN
WE ARE LIKE A FINE VIOLIN THAT IS TUNED BY THE
TOUCH OF THE MASTER HAND
My life is a journey on a road, but going I know not where.
I have been in the valleys and the hilltops.
It's the same kind of challenges that I have to face
Rather I have taken turns to the right
or to the left on my road.
I always seem to make it through.
Because I have friends like you
that I have met on the way.
My friends have held my hand and comfort
My spirit when I needed them the most.
They have been there for me through the smiles and the tears.
They really cared about me.
They did not run or hide from my problems
They were true friends.
I love them more then they will ever know.
They are my special friends and a big part of my life
As I go on my journey down the road I know not where.
But I do know they are there for me.
I woke up this morning and said "Good Morning Lord"
I thank you for this beautiful day.
I thank you for the renew strength you have given me.
I thank you for the peace in my heart.
I thank you for my friends who have stayed by my side.
But most of all I thank you for Loving Me.
When I was angry
When I was hurting
When I was crying
When I was sad
When I didn't feel like Praying
You was always with me caring me through… giving me
Strength to go on.
I thank you Lord today for letting me be "Just Me".
I woke up this morning with my eyes open to a different Light
I see things differently, I can't explain it but I feel different
in my
Heart
And in my Spirit.
It's like I woke up out of a long sleep or a dream.
So I say "Good Morning Lord," I Love You and I Thank You
For Letting me be "Just Me".

I had a dream last night I was driving down a road, and saw the most beautiful sign and it said, "Heaven's Meadows" the letters were bright and shining and glistened like they were real gold. I turned the car and went through the gate, which was also sparkling and shining like the finest of gold. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. As I drove down the road I seen the most fabulous homes, the colors were beautiful I can't describe them like they were, it was breathtaking.
People were laughing and smiling, the grass was so green and beautiful colors of flowers, all kinds and different shades of red roses,... (my favorite) Red roses they represent to me love, caring. I was in amazement because the colors were so vivid.
I didn't feel like a stranger, I felt like I had always been and
belong there. It was so peaceful and restful, tranquility a place
to rest. I could hear the heavenly music playing, I could hear the violin's
and the harp, and different sounds of brass horns but I didn't see and
one playing any instruments. It was so beautiful and restful I just could
hear it in my
mind. As I continued on down driving slowly I saw the most beautiful
lakes and streams. The sun shown on it sparkled like diamonds and was clear
as glass, The sky was beautiful shade of blue I felt a peace but was wondering
what this place was. I thought about stopping the car and walking so I
pulled over to the side of the road and got out. I was not
afraid of being alone in this strange place. I started to walk
and was absorbing everything around me; it was as if my eyes couldn't contain
all the beauty around me. As I continued to walk down the road I could
see the beautiful trees along the road it was if I was the only person
there. Then I saw a meadow the grass was so green the flowers were breathtaking
as I walk it seemed like hours had passed. I stopped by a large tree and
sat down for a minute. I was tired and must have dozed off for a while;
I don't know how long I slept. I heard someone call my name softly, Caroline,
Caroline, I open my eyes and everything was so bright that I couldn't make
out who it was. It was like a halo of lights and the person was in the
middle of it. I said" What do you want? Who are you? What is
this place? The voice said do not be Afraid I have come to give
you peace and comfort and rest. I tried so hard to see his face but I couldn't.
I said thank you so much I am so tired, then he said I Know All about It,
Do Not Worry for I am with you always. My heart skipped a beat …Oh my goodness
am I dead? The voice said No... But you heart has been troubled I came
to give you rest and peace. To show you that you have nothing to fear this
is "Heaven's Meadows" you can rest here and have peace in your heart anytime
you feel you need it. Remember I am with you always. With that the light
was gone I tried so hard to hang on to it but it was gone. I woke
up out of my sleep back to reality. Was that a dream or a vision of what
heaven will be like? I got out of bed and told my daughter that I
had the most beautiful dream about a place called" Heaven's Meadows".
Is there such a place like that? Or, is it just in my mind. Did God want to show me that I could find a place to rest when I am weary and tired? It has left it mark on my heart that I will remember forever. Maybe someday I will see it again, people happy, laughing, no pain, no sorrow, no problems to face, no sickness, being content in a place where love grows.
This is not the end of the story it is the being of living and loving and resting, and having peace in your heart that God has everything under control in our lives. He wants us to enjoy the life we have here on earth as long as we can. Till he CALLS US HOME TO HIM.
God Bless you and I pray that you find Peace In Your Heart today Turn in over to God and he will take care of you. God Bless you, and remember we are in The Master's Hands.
I have an angel friend
who is as dear as can be.
I love my angel friend who
means the world to me.
I can't express the feelings
That is deep within
Thoughtfulness and gentleness has
Played a very big part.
You have been here for me
right from the very start.
You have show love and kindness
That only an angel friend can do.
So I hang on to that thought
that my angel friend has brought.
Your tender and loving words to me
your thoughtfulness and you.
Has open a whole New World to mebr>
that you will be here to see me through.
My Angel Friend

I believe when you see a rainbow in the sky it gives you hope
When you see the beauty of the dawning of new day there is hope
I believe a smile can melt your heart
You can find beauty in the smallest things
seeing the movement of a butterfly the joy it brings.
The gentle rain from the sky brings new life…. there is hope
Seeing a rainbow in the sky still makes you stop and wonder
how great God is………. there is hope.
Meeting new people brings excitement into your heart…. there is hope
I believe in people…and finding good in them…. there is hope
A friendship who has touch your life helps you to believe again
Hearing from a friend is a pleasant surprise, brings joy into your life.
Feeling the pain and suffering of others and it still hurts you…. there is hope
Taking the time to relax and reflect on God's Beauty….. there is hope
If you want life to have a happy ending then believe
Look at the past it's gone …..and smile
the future holds more for you….. I believe
If you had a bad day look up………… tomorrow is a new day.
To believe is a marvelous thing….. to dream a dream…. it will come true.
Faith sustains us when everything else fails
I believe it gives us courage to move ahead when we would like to give up.
I believe if you face life with a smile God will direct your path.
When you are confused and don't know which direction to go.
look at the rainbow….. it gives us hope
I believe that life is wonderful to hold on to and cherished.
There is love in all of us and it can bring light into our dark world if we only believe.
The rainbow reminds us there is a higher power and we can go on.
I believe
