I took a step backwards today and tripped over my misplaced dreams I fell again, contemplating nothing is ever as it seems. One day a positive hope glows the next it's stolen fast away each night I sleep in lonely bed and sadly beg my dreams to stay. I took a step backwards once more and looked around in confusion why can't I just walk straight ahead, is love truly an illusion? Tomorrow I won't falter thus I plan to get together now and make my life a happy place although I'm sure I don't know how. [This message has been edited by catalinamoon (06-02-2002 11:44 AM).] |

This is so sad but so straight from the heart. Everytime you leave us a post here it's a step forward and a delight to read. So for every step back there are thousands that move forward....bless you! |

Oh Sandra, I know just exactly how this feels. I, too, wish my dreams would stay. |

Sandra... Let the dream of one's life flow the stream without strife Let the heart held by one beat of two love's begun Dreams can become realities...We just have to understand what can only ever be a dream... and what can be reality... Patience dear lady... |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh Sandra, this is so very sad, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you, for I have known this feeling so so much, though I know with all my heart there is a man out there you will find so very soon who will promise you true love always and he will help you always walk forward with trust! (kiss on cheek) This is sadly beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sandra, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

You’ll find the way Sandra…you’ll find the way. We all must allow ourselves time to mourn those we have lost in our lives (whether through death, or the end of a relationship), then, when we are ready, we find the way to move forward. I know you will…and I know you will find happiness again in your life. Hugs sweetie. Everything is possible in the game of life |

Tomorrow I won't falter thus I plan to get together now and make my life a happy place although I'm sure I don't know how. Love that last line, Sandra. If I find directions, I'll send em to ya!!! I'm falling even more in love with you |

tripped over my misplaced dreams ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is such a wonderful and insightful prhase. I DO wish I had written this! Sandra, you are well on the way to complete happiness when you can write and understand that about which this piece speaks. I am SOOOOOOoooooooo proud of you! Others should read this and make it their mantra. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
