Days leave little time but to think of the emptiness shared with no one. Mind tossing thoughts how to make it on its own and if an aging body has the ability to outlast the workload that life demands. All the happiness in a day can never make up for the walk through the quiet of an unlocked door where so much once was... and so little is left behind. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

I can understand this write so very well. My solace now is having two excited dogs greet me on my return and that is love - unconditional love. And then sometimes I lock them out so I'm not shadowed but that, I guess, is how love should be to make space for "me" - as they say. |

Thanks Helen.. both my pets are gone now...and I am not so sure I can make the enough time for a new one now that I am working outside the home full time...though I contemplate it often. M |
