Do angels experience

Do angels experience ecstasy? I don't know, but it seems we do. I have determined that the spark of life I am sans body, personality, experiences, will go on, even as there was never a separate you, a separate me. Your poetry parallels human ecstasy, however. Smiles, Anna Don’t let your victories go to your head, or your failures go to your heart.

“It is amazing how much

"It is amazing how much you all “see” behind my words." No, its because you awake such feelings of love, we all love you, but then you know that don't you? You have become a most special man for us all, one who sees the beyond, and gives us a hand to explore with you that beyond, the place we do not yet know and yet that place we all arrive at; we with you, sense your pain and in doing so understand the deeper things in life. Yes like that good man Christ Jesus, you say you 'believe' in him, and you, like him, are in that state where communication with our inner selves can bear the fruits of understanding and knowledge. Life's compassion in knowing. Amen we love you. Ist not so my friends here? Annuccia, Anna.

You boldly tackle your pain with compassionate wisdom

Dearest Longobardolino, You say you are overwhelmed, it is so true what I said you are a very very special man, it is true you are, like Jesus, full of such wonderful worth and joy, despite your afflictions and pain, you boldly tackle them with compassionate wisdom and in the knowledge that this is the only way to do so in the circumstances, that you can project yourself out of yourself and see into yourself what must be done, is quite uniquely wonderful and so extraordinarily admirable; I am sure I am not alone in this view of you. And although you might say oh, but you are biased, I think that would be unjust as I look at this person Joe also from the outside and come to the same conclusions in spite of my feelings towards you. So there! Your admiring Annuccia

My Longobardolino this is

So well expressed so sensitive to the spirit, yours and that of others, so eloquent, so beautiful and so powerful. You excell in this one, it makes me feel happy that I know you. Annuccia

Joe

As usual your words would move those mountains we are asked to climb and make them as flat as Cricket pitches. The spark that you are, the energy force that is you, is equal to all the Gods that have ever been, they are the same as you, that they know more is that they have been of their own pattern for much longer than some of us, when you return Home as is your place, there you will see and feel that the words you use are a picture of the real US, with much thought to you, as we journey together yet are singularities, where love is unconditional and our others wait with open arms to be with us again, Yours as always, Ian.T
