I believe a large part of that revolves around life changing me when I was not paying attention, or in spite of how hard I used to fight to hold on to my idealism. What I enjoy most about surrendering to the hurt and the dulling of the luster I used to have about romance, careers, yadda yadda yadda is that I find a solid contentment in where I am now. Life seems all the more substancial and enriching because it just is real. I can touch it and see it and taste it without necessarily longing for too much "more." And I don't feel as if I have lost out or sold out because when I see the happy older couple I have hope that maybe I'm on the right path to real happiness and that maybe that an enduring romance will come to me too and if not, well, I just shrug. <br /><br />(I hope I didn't blather too much in my "comment." I really just wanted to say thank you for putting a focus onto some of my own feelings lately and that maybe I need to take a trip to Spain.)</p> Thank you for putting into words the sensations I myself experienced lately, that small quiet knowledge that I changed somewhere.

It is like sitting still long enough for the bird to come eat out of your hand. After awhile we lose faith in our belief and chase after what seems to us as elusive. I am sitting still hoping it is worth the wait. Sometimes it is hard to hold on to a goal that appears so far away. My hope is there is a bird behind me I cannot see. For now like you, there are none in front of me. </p><br /><br /><p> Sitting still....very still</p> What I am saying fish is you say everything in it’s own time but can you wait for it to come to you?

I tend to believe in faith for other people. They believe in God, I believe in them.
