"The root to the eternal nourishment of the soul is to find a partner who touches you and brings forth feelings hitherto unknown to open hearts. One can never blame gravity for 'falling in love'; such feelings are emotions that are worked up and never down. I knew that I loved Sheila instantly once I glimpsed her unchanging goodness and the innocence of her thoughts. I knew that I'd fallen in love with her when I sensed that her mere presence made me fall apart from the serious man I often think myself to be. She helped to restore my faith in womanhood after my wife had wanted a divorce; not because I'd been a bad husband, but because she wanted a change of partner and circumstance.
Knowing Sheila, has taught me so much about the spirituality of love and the simplicity of purpose; to do good, and when that's done, to do some more! People whom one truly loves, assume an elegance and grace in regard to everything about them. They hold inner beauties that you see clearer than any other and possess secrets told to none, but their soul mate. Their chief character flaw stem from a fragility of feelings which wounds them far deeper if betrayed, than any person should ever be hurt. Their philosophy makes the walking of all paths through life easier to travel when they are by your side, because it is love that guides them as they explore. It is love that leads them to dream and discover their happiness that the world holds in trust for them. At an earlier age than most, people like Sheila discover that when you love life, life loves you back. Pessimism and cynicism become strangers in their rug-sacks and instead of seeing nothing as being a miracle, they know that everything that lives and breathes is! No path in life can ever prevent them reaching their goal. If they find that they've taken a wrong course, they simply turn around and seek a better way. If they come across an obstacle, they either go around it, surmount it or get rid of it! They become pragmatists to purpose and guardians of the good.
They are perfect soul mates to catch when love comes your way, and they are to be found in the Village of Haworth in abundance; especially during the month of December when seasonal compassion is capable of softening the hardest of hearts and the heavens hold the promise of a newborn star."William Forde: November 28th, 2016.
