Either time seems to lengthen, anxiety and the perils of waiting pressing down on a lover's soul, or time seems so quick, nearly nonexistent, euphoria and ecstasy filling a lover's mind, making one forget time. I prefer the latter, myself. Loneliness, fear, and rejection are poisons of the mind. The antidote is a simple mix of faith, hope, and optimism. Whatever someone is feeling, s/he is usually at fault for it. Someone slanders another unjustly, and the slandered becomes terribly distraught. However, one lets his or herself become that way. If one thinks, "I know that is not true, and the one who said it is not worth my anger, my frustration," then one's feelings of despair begin to dissipate. To take control of one's life, to live life to the fullest, one has to be in control. One should not let others distress, anger, or worry them. If one remains peaceful, calm, and optimistic, their emotions are his/her own to control. Typically, people let others control their emotions, however. One must believe in oneself. Without faith, all is hopeless. One must stand true to what s/he believes, and must never back down. If one truly believes something is possible, then it will become a reality with effort from the believer. ...And now for something completely different. I received a new CD today called "Faeries: A Musical Companion to the Art of Brian Froud." It is really beautiful... I like the following song best on the CD. Vocal: Emily Aylmer and Ruth Cahill I dream a dark caressing ocean shore The moon has drawn me to its side I glimpse the shadow of a mystery That floats beyond my fingers as I cry And the stars shine on the dune And I see you in the moonlight Your voice is silence in my memory Your secrets never were revealed I see your footprints in the sand I touch them softly with my hand And though we've both been here before Nevermore Our words are written in the sand I sweep them softly with my hand And though we've said these words before Nevermore |
