OMG, I still have so much more to say! Hi, I'm Chrylann, nice to 'read' you

but I just read a comment.  I just jumped off this cliff of yours and how incredibly right on target you are in stating how healthy ones self esteem and confidence must be otherwise, yes..the leap could be fatal.

I was very proud of myself (for the first time) of putting my heart on the line...here I am pushing 50 and have never found and pursued ANY man. I was always the pursueee....and settled because of low esteem, for less than I deserved. So I sat out several dances, for quite sometime and asked God and only he to dance a slow and steady waltz with me....and by gollie, we fell in love (me & God).  He is my first true love but then, the strangest phenomenon occured and this incredible man was brought into my life (it was frightening because if I had a want list, which I don't...he would fit every, single detail and has even haunted my dreams!)

This is not a 'so they lived happily ever after' tale as you may have guessed, but OMG, I did it and jumped off the cliff.  Did his rejection crush me on the rocks below? Yes!!! But I survived and I am so elated for having found someone, having handed my heart to him, totally rejected yes, but have not and did not take the rejection personally. So, he doesn't love me back (HIS LOSS)! That's all I got to say! (I've felt rather up & down of late...but mostly up, full moons are more difficult to take)!

The words just came; refreshing, uplifting, enlightening...this is not a sad piece but a wonderfully stupendous piece of magic! Good job!

Spinner - sad, i guess; but disolving the ego is really a knoble adventure,
But indeed one must first be in a position of strength, and have confident courage, otherwise the journey could be fatal......
