                    The Harvest
                
                    I hope by sharing this with all of us you have aleviated your burden.  It must have been a very difficult time for you and I am humbled by the amazing way in which you described it. I know from experience that the end of a relationship is like a death of a family member,  No matter how long we have known it was going to happen,  it still hurts so much when the end actually arrives. and the four stages of grief also apply: First we can not believe its over, then we are sad, despondent, Soon we get angry, Oh so angry, but there comes the time that we accept what has happened.  You will be OK and you will learn from this.  
  BTW, the analogy to the Harvest is sensational. I love your writing! You are a very talented and corageous woman

                You obviously know a lot more than you give yourself credit for.

                    Hunger can be misleading
                
                Hunger like this can be misleading, and when you take that step back and realize what exactly it is that you're desiring it can sometimes take you another step back. i think that is the thing that scares me most in relationships actually, the fact that you can start to depend on someone so much that you do not know how to survive without them. haha but what do i know? i enjoyed this though. p.s. thanks for you comment!

                Yep, That's where I am. One foot here and the other there, waiting for someone to rescue me, someone else to change, something to change and alas it is me after all who has to change the way I live and think. And I am under some intense therapy. Thank you for your wise words of love and wisdom

                    Your pain is still so intense...
                
                ... but I know "it," feel "it," and know how easy it is to get lost there.  I've been battling the same demon for a couple of illogical weeks.   But I have stayed away.  My record time was 10 months of no contact - a pause, he called it.  I've made it two months now since that last kiss-off, but the demon in my mind keeps me at his beck and call.   "It" was a pipe dream, never meant to be -- at least not at this time in my life, which seems to have a burning fuse growing shorter as the weeks pass by.  Somehow, that deepens the despair that "it" is really over and gone, bridges burned. . . I KNOW there is no direction but up and out, into the fresh air and the light, ahead and forward.  It's the only direction left to you and me.  The danger is in looking behind us to see if what we desire is following and not seeing "it," stand and wait for "it" to catch up, never getting it into our thick noggins that "it" was never following us in the first place.

                Some days the pain is as sharp as a knife, other days the knife dulls but I suppose the more distance I get on this convoluted situation I have allowed myself to participate in, I shall come out a blooming rose. At least this is what I visualize.

 Thanks for stopping by today.
