And I've seen what you make for money and I've seen what you do for fame. I've seen what you do to make people like you and I've seen what you swallow to ease the pain. I've heard what you say out of malice and I've heard what you spat out of spite.
But none of these things make you happy because not one was done for love.
a read the title, then i see the photo, then i read the words. and they all clicked.
ReplyDeleteWow.. wow.. just wow.. <3
ReplyDeleteThis is eye opening and heart warming.
ReplyDeleteright....as always....fame and luxury is nothing without love
ReplyDeleteJust love..
ReplyDeletea lot of people do these, but how can they still sleep soundly at night? guiltless, stoic, calculating.
ReplyDeletehmmmm....sounds like someone I know....maybe for others, it sounds like.....me.....
ReplyDeletethese are exactly the words i need to hear after last night...
ReplyDeleteI know this person. You know him too?
ReplyDeleteThank you again.
ReplyDeletewow...that just left me speechless!!
ReplyDeletebrilliant, once again Iain :D
money and fame don't really fit that void in our lives like love does.
Ouch.
ReplyDeleteIn the defence of people like this (of which I am one) I just don't feel love all that often. Possibly it's a deficiency, I don't know.
this may be my favorite yet, thank you.
ReplyDeleteadore the way this entry flowed. ♥
ReplyDeleteThat was beautiful! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly how he is.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm not supposed to change who he is. I'm accepting who he is and walking away.
He has no idea what love is.
Which is how I know that I do.
<3bria
oooh, this describes my previous employers...so spot-on!
ReplyDeletebrilliant
ReplyDeleteAnd the time they spent making their lives into their mental picture of perfection only brings them closer to and end they never saw coming.
ReplyDeletesounds like the lyrics to a song ... i hear you.
ReplyDeleteI read this 6 years ago, forgot it, and today I feel the urge to search for this "Wasted Stone" just to read it again.
ReplyDeletethank you, this means so much for me.
