In our lives we,
some, well, a few
maybe all

have those moments,
those dreams,
those visions

of whom we think we will love for the rest of our lives
and far into the here after

it is not important for us to know that face
to see it before we meet them

but to Recognize it

for many things can happen
and there could be many loves
in the inbetween time

things that have to happen before we are ready for them
before we're ready for each other

what is important are those flashes
those images we see, when they happen
those déjà vus

then we know,
we recognize the importance of that person
that it is ok to love them
and keep them

in our hearts...

always

and not predict the future
not to place a face into some grand scheme or vision of what we expect
who and whom we "expect"

what should happen
think should happen

for the beauty of life
are those flashes of...

"I've seen you before"
"this has happened before"
"Don't I know you?"

and we don't say those words
we keep them to ourselves
we smile and go on
and enjoy the day

for maybe there are many loves,
many souls
many hearts we are supposed to love along the way
and carry them with us

always

for maybe that is the way it should be

always

and every day

This is a very interesting collection of thoughts and much food for pondering, as I will do, as I go about mundane tasks today during which I enjoy the pastime I enjoy so much - pondering . . .

Hi Martiniat, no one can predict future and the sensation of déja vu always keeps mystery, I love the sense you give for that and the penetring thoughts you offer about relationships with others...Thanks for the fortunate read I had this morning.

have a nice day

yann
