So I tried twice to type this in my writing section, but alas, it would not post. Therefore it goes in the journal entry….
Left with nothing but her thoughts to keep her company. Thoughts and memories that plague and torture when they should comfort and give her peace. Thoughts of a love she dreamed of, a love she so rightfully deserved. A childhood dream to have a love that time itself would stand still for. Perhaps a childish dream, a naive one. Does such a thing really exist?
Where did she go wrong? Was she willingly blind to that which would shatter her hopes and faith? Did she long for that dream so desperately that she created it in her mind? Or was it real and somewhere along the line she let it turn to ash? Perhaps no dream can last forever, that is why it is called a dream.
It would not be so hard to deal with all the memories … it would not be so hard if they were not accompanied by all the what ifs and second guessing. A love time itself would stand still for…. how childish! Well that child is now grown and her dream is at an end. After all, a dream is just that, left for those who remain asleep. When she woke, the dream was done and all that was left was the dark.

By your written thoughts and images I think sometimes you yearn to have been born in a simpler yet elegant period when true love came from the heart.

Life… dreams and reality. They don’t like each other very much.

Oh, but I believe dreams are real…..they come from your mind don’t they? I believe it is our subconcious reaching out to us…...and yes as Henk so well put it: they don’t like each very much….......Wouldn’t be great if you could control what you dream???

Dreams are real… and so is love.
Dreams and love come from the same place… the heart.
Never give up your dreams, Alexia… as that is to die while your heart still beats.
We all sometimes try and fulfill our dreams in the wrong place at the wrong time,
yet that does not mean our dreams have been invalidated or made unreachable…
it only means that we have made a mistake in the place and method we sought to
fulfull our dreams.
Seek, and you shall find… old words of wisdom that are still so true,
as you can not find that which you have stopped seeking. I can feel your pain and despair in your words, as we have all felt such pain at one time… It is the uglier side
of life that crosses our journey from time to time. But is has a purpose, in making
those things we find beautiful, like love, only more appreciated and valuable to us.
Let not another steal your love, your passion, or your dreams… as these are yours. Keep seeking to fulfill those dreams, and eventually those dreams will be realized.
May your beautiful soul heal quickly, and have you back on the journey to find that
special dream you call your own.
Peace & Love,
Grouchy ;)
