Live or die? |

When a dream of the night begets heartache and the day so slow to arise it’s like there’s a need to resist the furtherance of a human life. The dream, you see, is blissfully free to capture within the mind’s confines the certainty of true love that finds its comfort and sustenance in a level above the physical. But down to my level it comes; ‘tis nought but a robber and thief intent on destroying my sanity and stealing my wish to live. And the dream speaks, sometimes it does, with a forked tongue like a snake because only a snake would slither and slide where it’s not meant to be if not to strike then simply to fright the humanness out of me. The thought is there to suffer no more this mixture that burns the mind and so I juggle the “live or die” today in the midst of heartache! (Probably just a vent until I have the strength) Helen / 21 July 2008 |

Oh, Helen, this hurts to read!! I know sometimes we are in this tremendous ache and have thoughts of true blackness and a lack of energy to cope. May you be aware that you are loved and that your happiness should therefore not depend on anyone. YOU ARE LOVE and that is a truth that you can experience deep within, when you address your soul.

Oh, this aches. But you neither slither nor slide, m'friend, but soar in rainbow skies. |
