QUOTE FOR THE DAY:

 "The greatest ironies of life: having the right person at the wrong time, having the wrong person when the time is right, and finding out that you love someone after that person walks out of your sight ...."

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS
***************************************************************

I have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.

For once in my life, I am comforted by the fact that I don’t have to hide.

Volumes are spoken, yet no words are expressed.

I stand before her transparent.

No walls exist.

No shroud to cover my soul.

No part is covered in darkness.

It is as if she shines a light into my soul, and sees it all.

When my soul bleeds, she doesn’t merely stand there watching the droplets fall and discolour my heart.

She reaches out, unafraid of touching the slight wound.

Within her fingertips, she has the power to heal, to help.

When tears stain my cheeks and fall relentlessly, she reaches to wipe away those tears.

She places her lips against my cheek and tastes the salty trails that track down my face.

Within that kiss is the ability to make them cease from existing.

When happiness and joy fills me, a light seemingly flows out of me.

She walks into that light and almost bathes in it.

She encourages that light to shine brighter and stronger.

It grows brighter and surrounds me in warmth and peace.

When confusion and doubt lurk into my mind, she opens me up and blows them away.

I watch as they are released from me.

I see their shadows growing smaller in the distance as her words soothe me.

Her honesty forever chasing them away.

The breath of her life scattering them to places where they shall never exist again.

She reads me like an open book.

She absorbs the words and commits them to memory.

It is as if she is reading Braille.

It’s as though she touches each of the words that I speak, as if the act will make her never forget.

I am naked and transparent.

For once in my life that doesn’t scare me or even create the smallest quiver of fear.

It offers me comfort and brings me a sense of peace.

It fades the scars that live in my soul and on my heart.

The scars that used to haunt me.

It makes me more appreciative of the scars that still remain.

If it weren’t for those scars reminding me of whatever hurt and pain I’ve been through, I wouldn’t be so very appreciative of these gifts that she bestows upon me.

The gifts of a strong friendship, deep care, and most importantly, pure honesty.

For all of this, I must thank her.

So, thank you from the bottom of my tender heart for everything.

You Are A Cancer, The Funniest Sign Of  The Zodiac.

You are family-oriented, loyal, lovable, kind,
sensitive, intuitive and imaginative! 

You are very, very protective of your friends, and you
give them great advice! 

The animal you are most like is, a crab! 

Crabs are very smart, maybe
that's why they have lived for over 500 million
years! 

Crabs have a tough exterior in which they
hide their soft-selves (just like you and your
emotions). And just like the crab, you have two
ways to go in life, the hard lifeless shell or
the heart!

Your lucky colours are Sea Green (the colour of your
home, the sea) and silver (The colour of the
Moon) 

Your metal is Silver (Didn't see that one
coming *note the sarcasm*) 

Your precious stone is a pearl.

Your lucky day of the week is Monday.

Your element is Water. 

The planet you are ruled by is the Moon, hey you're
just like the tides, you know the Moon makes
the tides go in and out!! (Oh well, guess not. )

The parts of the body that you rule are your
stomach and breasts (Stop giggling, he he).
