You opened up my heart Took away that mental block Even though for you and me I know that it may never be You made me live again Before you came into my life Mere existence was my lot Hanging on the fringe of things Afraid to expose myself to pain But now I am alive again My heart is frozen no longer My soul rejoices in the fact Now I'm a participant in life Never will I regret that you Broke through fear to make me feel Even if we never are You'll live forever in my heart You've set me free < !signature--> Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass [This message has been edited by peppermint35 (edited 11-08-2000).] |

"You've set me free" I used to think these words would not relate to me, but I truly know how you feel. I loved reading this and hoping it was all so real for you and isn't it a wonderful feeling?

Pepper What A wonderful reminder of how it feels to be free. Whether in the heart or in life its self. Though you were speaking of being free of the walls that you built, It took my mind back to slavery and the salvation of being ones own free person. Thank you for shareing. PLY |

Beautifully said pepper, I wish more of us whom suffer from past love's lost would wake up and see what you now see. One needs to separate the idea that "that's all there could ever be, my life's over, there'll never be another...I'll Never Love Again." We're too resilient for that. Love and heartache is like any other lesson in life; it serves to grow us, strengthen us, and the sooner we learn to make memories of past heartache, the richer (as with you) our lives will become. jwesley |
