A young woman with whom I found a love I've never known and woke up to, maybe too late, in her need and dispair, turned to another for that fulfillment. While she professes that love for me is still there, she can not escape the safety of where she is and risk one more time the effort of giving life to that rare and fulfilling love she once believed she had found. She is suspicious and doubtful of it's existance and does not want to hurt others, she has now embraced in her search for her heart's content. Though she has brought out in me the poetic expression of my love for her, it is very hard for me to bring out a message of direction and hope, without sounding selfish and self serving. You all have such heart and soul, that I am turning to you for the help in that message. Since she loves poetry and the feelings it captures, I know that this is the right venue to try and reach her heart. Thank you all so much for your encouragement and good thoughts, it has helped immensely. [This message has been edited by TheBlindMan (edited 04-26-2000).] |

To the Woman that BlindMan Loves The Path Least Chosen As you wander down the path of life there is always a fork which you must choose to travel It will happen many times in your life as this mystery of the future begins to unravel The path of which you are thinking about choosing is not an easy one and not one to say "One potato, two potato, three potato, four" It is a serious decision of one you may want to think about a heck of a lot more In relationships - it is never good to jump from the pan into the fire. Many people follow their heart thinking, ah, a new love, that is my heart's desire Life is not that way, the problems you have - are just extra baggage that you will take along your journey, and soon have to unpack again It is far better to face what hurts and learn what causes the pain For in a very short time - same stuff, same garbage, same confusion, same old everything It's just with different people, but always the same hurt -and nothing has been gained. The path least chosen at the crossroads of your life is to wait before taking one more step to either path ---and learn about yourself and what "you" want for your future. netswan April 22, 2000 PS, If you believe in God Pray for your answer - he will answer -- God does listen, but you do have to wait for him to respond. You can't just walk into a room sit down for a few moments and say, "God I have so many decisions to make in life and I don't know what to do?" Then walk out the room! No, you have to wait until he answers. And he rarily answers with words for he knows that people want to argue and explain. God doesn't want to hear your arguments and excuses - he already knows them. Just wait, and God will send a vision - a vision of a picture of yourself leading the life you want to lead - head held high, self pride, decisive and true to yourself and your own convictions ----a vision he will send to you -- but sometimes you have to wait. I don't know how long he makes you wait, but he will send an answer- a vision - if you pray to him then wait for your answer. netswan |
