A Cry in the Dark

the end of a chapter....

I have come to the end of the chapter. The pages left are blank, filled with hopes, dreams and what-ifs. The story seems to have ended, but the ending feels undone. Is it really over? Is that really all there is?

It’s been a wonderful story, one that swept me into another world. I’ve learned such amazing things about myself by taking it to heart. The experience has changed me, in ways that continue to surprise me. The ending, however, leaves me feeling so sad and lost....

If only....

What if....

Would it have been better if.....

So many questions, and none of them have answers. Maybe one day some of those blank pages will be filled with warmth and positive thoughts....

The chapter is finished and the book has been closed. It is time to begin a new book. As I find one that intrigues me, I open it gingerly. Will the author draw me in as completely? Will the characters appeal to me, move me, teach me more about myself? What adventures will my imagination lead me to explore?

I put my apprehensions to the side and open this new book....

e-mail and merlot don't mix....

And neither does shiraz and blogging....

I appreciate the warm hugs and comments on my last post. Please rest assured that I will NOT take that step.

I always thought I could empathize with people who had these feelings. I now have a much better understanding of just how strong that pull can be. It is a lesson I wish I had not learned.



As the song says..... I will survive.
