I could have been there by now If I hadn't put on my blinker instead of following the taillights ahead of me and I hadn't turned by habit to the call of my real world with little ones to hug, dogs to feed and supper to cook, another day to wake up and bills to pay, I could have driven straight to you and been wrapped up in your arms and your kisses your heart would be next to mine our breaths as one. if only I had stayed on the interstate... I could have been there by now ©1999 Iloveit |

Thank you for this. It is an eye opener, to be sure. Sometimes we really DO need to listen to our inner self a bit more. Nice work. |

How wonderful life could be if we just followed our instincts and went for the gold..but, unfortunately, when there are obligations to be met and others to be considered, one cannot just turn one's back and ignore the consequences of the action. You did put on your blinker and that makes you much more admirable. Now, if the day ever comes that the blinker burns out and you can't put it on, well then, it must be an act of God!!!! To the world you might be just one person but to one person you might just be the world. |

iloveit... Beautiful, and I know where you are. Just want to echo Balladeer words. I'm still waiting for that blinker to burn out myself, and when it does I know it will be right. [This message has been edited by Betty Gravitt (edited 12-08-1999).] |
