			&#8220;LOVE OF A LIFETIME&#8221;</p>
<p>			<span style="color: #ff0000;">A love of a life time is a rare find.  My mother’s cousin has lost her husband. They married late in life. Theirs was a special bond of heart and soul connecting. Her loss is great.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Love that gives life to the other person, is a love of timeless value. When love like this is lost through separation or death, love of this kind leaves a hole. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"> Some loves intertwine as they weave soul to spirit in threads of delicate delight. Shared moments are like splashes of iridescent joy.  </span></p>
<p><span id="more-317"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">If one has known such love once in a lifetime, they know they have been exceedingly blessed with a treasure rare. True love comes softly.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">We must enjoy the sweet moments as they come, our times of bliss with the love of our life. Celebrate the joys, and sorrows, as they unfold.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">I have known such love once in my life. Our moment was cut short, like a breath sucked in then quickly let out. It changed me. Profoundly.  </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>The ancient adage rings true: It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved. </strong> </span></p>
