***This is for my love, my life, my wonderful wife. I love you, Syd!*** The Search Has Ended I grew up in the Plains of Nowhere looking to the horizons of adventure. Eventually I visited the horizon and I looked back wondering why I left, for looking back through the spectacles of experience, Nowhere looks mighty good. I browsed in the Baskin Robins of companionship for a long time, sampling the female varieties. Many I didn't really care for, others were initially appealing, only to have a sour after taste. But in my sampling of the varieties I learned what was not for me. I walked through life with my head in the map of possibilities, looking for the path to my dreams. Several paths led to dead ends, and many turns turned out to be wrong. I decided maybe it isn't the road you travel, but who you travel it with. I learned from all these experiences in life. I grew from them as well. They steered the helm of my life safely guiding me to my home port of call, to where my dreams all begin... for they all begin with YOU. |

Nice! I especially liked the Baskin Robbin's analogy. Krishankins A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

Bravo, Bravo! I'm so happy the search has ended...and the dreams are finally reality, too! You touch me in many ways...and the warm fuzzies keep on growing and growing and growing. I love this writing, dear, and your abilities of expression. xoxo |
