Hello A.T.S.<>Take These Broken Wings...and Try Not To break them more

A friend of mine suggested I try this site out. I began by hanging out here a few days first. I have read many interesting "threads", I see they are called. I gravitate to the spiritual side of things. I really don't know where to begin, so I think I will just keep this short and sweet. I have a song I like that I'm sure you all have heard before;

Broken Wings - Mr. Mister


Baby, I don't understand, why we can't just hold on to each others' hands
This time might be the last, I fear, unless I make it all too clear
I need you so, ohh
Chorus:
Take these broken wings, and learn to fly again, learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing, the book of love will open up and let us in

Take these broken wings

Baby, I think tonight, we can take what was wrong and make it right, mmm
Baby, it's all I know, that you're half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole, I need you so, so

(chorus)

Take these broken wings, you've got to learn to fly
Learn to live life so free
And when we hear the voices sing, the book of love will open up and let us in
Yeah yeah, let us in, let us in

(Solo)

Baby, it's all I know, that you're half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah, so

(chorus)

Take these broken wings, you've got to learn to fly
Learn to live your life so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up for us and let us in, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, oooh

[ Lyrics from: www.lyricsfreak.com... ]

This song really symbolizes how I feel about our world. I think we are broken and need to find love in each other to fix things. There is just to much hatred. Anyway, that is all I have to say right now. I look forward to hanging out some more. May take me some time to reach the 20 post requirement but I will get there eventually.

Thanks.

I hope I did okay for my first try. I had a little help.

Hello Broken and welcome!

Welcome. Nice and positive song.

We all need more love in this world. We have to start with those around us first.

Pay it forward. Peace.

Hi!
Beautiful Song you added and you did just fine.
Hope to see you around.
Now, you do have your Tin-Foil Hat don't you?
OH, Here's a song for you, I hope you don't mind, it's from my home land and my younger sister is in the group.

Dear BrokenAngelWings33,

Welcome to the insane asylum. Theology is a tough one on this site. Be assured that if you believe you matter and exist beyond this life, you will be called everything imaginable. Don't sweat the small stuff. Also don't expect everyone to agree with you, it doesn't work that way. This is a place to be challenged, to test your beliefs and to deny ignorance which is nothing more than the failure to test our beliefs. That is what faith is, not belief, it is the willingness to test your beliefs. Peace.

Thank you. I agree. First we have to love our self though before we can love others, right? It starts with the individual. You seem to have that and I am grateful. The more of us that can find love in our own heart the more we can help others to find that love in themselves.

Thanks for the *warning* I wouldn't be naive enough to other wise, I look forward to the challenge, my friend gave me a heads up and I saw enough before I decided to join...you seem like a very nice person. See you again I hope.

I noticed you are in Phoenix, I used to live in Mesa. Saw my first "dust storm" and "flash floods" that evaporate....very strange. I used to work for Smitty's. Ever heard of them? Not sure if they are still in business... they used to have 26 stores back then...combination grocery/dept. store...fun place to shop and I enjoyed working there.

Got your message, not sure if you are aware...I was not able to reply in private yet. I get your point of wisdom. I have much compassion and patience to deal with most....

Thanks.

Thank you for sharing that and a big welcome to ATS! That's one of my favorite songs from childhood and carries very deep meaning from a couple different periods a long time ago. It was an unexpected thing to come across tonight. A pleasant surprise.

Short and sweet, thanks.

Well now whats this all about? Someone needs their wings fixed? Say it isn't so.

We winged creatures have to stick together and help carry one another. And this website will help do just that.

Make sure you keep yourself strong in faith as there are always going to be a few that want to clip our wings.

A big welcome to you and may your 'flight' around the forum be smooth with the wind to your back.
