why isn't the world a story?

wow, what does one say to that? I want to make it better. Sometimes I can almost touch her. I hear her laughter and than I wake up. Why? No answer to any of it. I don't know maybe she is as frustrated as we are in our inability(sp) to cross time/space/matter. Hopefully, someday. Cyn

ring the bells that you can ring
forget your perfect offering
there's a crack in everything
that's how the light gets in

this is a very touching post- perfect words.

sorry my initial comment was unrelated and rather cold- I had not read archives to know the context.

I too wish the world was a story...one in which every ending was happy. A little unrealistic but there it is. I've been thinking about you lately OB. Glad to hear from you.

it's been a little while since I've been around, but jennsee has been with me greatly of late, and it's because of your words, and mysfits, that this is so.
I believe the world is a story, and we are all writers contributing to the greater tale being told...Sometimes I think that the words I write are my own attempts to touch those elusive wings of the ones I have lost.
I can only encourage you to keep writing, keep posting the pictures, keep sharing that love in all that you do.
And those tears, I believe, are filled with that love, and they fix so much for us in this world when we want our loved ones to still be a part of it.
How many times have we told ourselves that such emotions are wrong or that we should move on?
WTF?
We tell ourselves this only because we've been told to think this way.
For as long as I live, I will do everything I can to keep reaching for the wings of those I miss...and I will keep giving them the love they need to keep flying high around us all, soaring mightily with their own love....

I had to share this "story". Yesterday at work a woman came up to me and whispered "do you have a sister"? Taken aback I said yes. She said " you are loved, there are angels all around you". I told her my sister was in Montana but my daugher died 5 months ago yesterday (11/22). She said "angels were around me and that everything will be alright". I asked her how did she know this and she said she was a spiritualist and works with angels. She than just walked out and I stood there blindsided. Amazing! By the way, RUSVW, I've been thinking about you. We are moving along w/the sch.fd.I'll keep you updated.

Miss her so much. Had to put this writing, don't know why. I hate this, I want her home. O.M.
