BOOM! Crash landing jarred awake hussshhhed . . . silence Discarded metal thrashing about my brain Oh, the past . . . it haunts me so . . . Eyes wild and staring land before me unknown yet outlined This ship no longer serves me I embark Stranger in a strange land . . . --------------------------------------------------- For Raphael - who inspires me so My words are my gratitude, my friend I thank you . . . xxoo QA was in my head . . . listen . . . This is in response to your "Becoming" [This message has been edited by littlewing (04-10-2003 03:37 PM).] |

I will double check my ref & credit - in the meantime - here goes a crash occurs - alone - not the same language - no familiarity a family takes him in - teaching communication & how to survive in this new world..... massive frustration for this man he falls in love with the woman - then realizes ... she has a husband & finally embarks on his own into this strange land with the knowledge gifted by this family the twist was at the end - it was revealed that this was an analogy of birth / childhood / & transition to an adult life I will find the reference to confirm I think it was - Og Mandino's = university of success / a multi-authur masterpeice . . . all that we see is but a dream within a dream . . . |
