Some weeks ago I posted the following poem/prayer.

Dear God


It’s not
that the man I love
lives so far away from me
that bothers me
the most
but‘not knowing’
when we will be together again
what tears me apart


no date
to look forward too
nothing…
but a blank calendar
with days
months…
even years
but no dates on it


so I find myself staring
at this calendar
waiting for a date
to show up
any date…
just something
to make this waiting
bearable….


please…God…
dear God…
give me a date
so I can mark that day
with a red pen
to see… and believe
that this calendar
also is finite…


That time I felt so sad... so desperate... On the 21th of September it will be a year ago since we said goodbye... Mijn lief and I... we just didn't know how to make it possible to be together again...
Last week... out of the blue... there was a ticket!!!  My artist... the love of my life... comes to me for 3 months!!!  He will arrive in Holland on October 11!!!  

My prayer is been answered!!!  

Thank you all... dear people... for your support and encouraging words!!!  

I am so happy!!!  And so is Artist!!!

Thanks again!!!  You are a great wonderful family!!!

P.s.  Now I have a date marked on my calendar!!!

And your calendar is no longer blank!  How I hope that the two of you can somehow remain together - you are surely due all of the happiness.  Neeraja...I am very happy for you, and you will continue to be in my prayers!
