I met a woman who is beautiful of body, mind, and soul. We became fast friends and I feel as though we must have been friends in another life because we are in sync. She was just a nameless face in a sea of confusion until a spark ignited our friendship.
I have intently listened to her story. I have enjoyed the time we have spent together and the more I learn, the more i want to reach out and offer her my hand to help her out of the mud. She had a love once, so strong and bright. Perhaps that love did not fade, but was rather tucked away.
I watch her struggle and I see the pain in her eyes. I was not around for the cause of this pain and I only know the one side that I have been told, but it brings sorrow to my heart to watch as the pain continues to unfold.
A part of me wishes for her to get her wish of being with the one she loves, but from all i know, that love will never be the same and that love is best remembered in a light of beauty than in the shadow of sorrow.
My dear friend, I know you are reading this and I want you to know that life only moves us forward as that is nature’s design. Looking back is only for memories, not for the creation of the future. I am here if you need me and love surrounds you if you would turn your eyes forward, you would see that love. Maybe you can move towards it away from the pain away from the woman who holds your heart by a thread over a cliff…..
