For a while, there
I thought I would
Be okay
Thought things
Would be okay
Thought the world
Would be okay

Now I know,
As I sit
In my hole
In the wall,
Cut off from
The world,
That nothing
Is okay.

The churchbells
Ring outside
The library,
Different songs
Than they used
To play...

:]

It is our mind that keeps us frozen in time..sometimes it is necessary to stop and reevaluate our situation and priorities...make adjustments...figure out who we are and where we want to go...meanwhile life goes on all around us and as soon as we are ready we merely have to jump back in...James

I know this pain of which you speak and my heart goes out to you. I pray that joy will come into your life to heal this pain you now have to endure. I agree with JamesMichael..step back and do what you need for you then jump back into life with both feet. Take care, dear one.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
