I never really understood just how great you were back when we first began I was young and immature, in love with another man or just stuck in his allure, I took off in directions when I wasn't ever sure. So after all these years I finally saw the 'you' I so desperately needed but never really knew until I hit rock bottom and almost fell through, but there you were and to my disbelief I was there too. But love changes over time. I wasn't there when we first began- missing in my self-involvement, too naive to understand what I could have had in you and now I never can- and whoever said "it's never too late" was surely a foolish man.

Dixie - I can really relate to your words but sometimes we're just in the wrong place at the wrong time for us and then when we see what we couldn't see then, we feel regretful. That's never a good thing but I think it's a good thing that you came to see more than you did at first. That in essence is growth and you have grown. Yes, that's a good thing! Hugs Helen |

Sometimes those painful 'what-could-have-beens' allows us to recognize opportunities when they come our way and the ability to not overlook them. I try hard to believe that. Good luck to you in this...great write BTW. |

like the freshness in your mature poetry as well as the young eyes of a long ago girl |

Dixie, you have matured with grace and understanding. A new 'opportunity' will come knocking at your door and this time you will be ready for it. All that you have experienced has not been for naught.  Loving hug, Linda |

sometimes it is too late, and dealing with the emotional ripples of that is tough on the heart.  everything changes though and sometimes second chances happen when we least expect them!love you!  |

Dearest Dixie! Roniece is write!-- Never give up in this world. Every thing in this world is a precious gift from God. Keep your chin up high and rise above many! It's really good to write about your thoughts and emotions. Letting everyone know, is a prefect way to get confidence. I am no psychologist, But I am a friend!, and I know how you may be able to solve what ever is going on... May you start to feel better ARCTIC WIND |
