13! for Thursday

1. Finding inspiration is sometimes hard.

2. Then one just decides to write and see what happens.

3. Sometimes it is effective; sometimes not.

4. But it is making me think.

5. About:

love

regret

things I thought I had forgotten

what could have been

what is yet to be

6. But one thing that keeps coming back is this: the person who first broke my heart loved me more than I realized.

7. It is a weird feeling.

8. In one way it is nice to know that I was wrong about why he left me.

9. On the other hand, it is sad that we were each quietly missing the other.

10. As I have written many times, one cannot live a life in the past or one full of regrets.

11. Had we never broken up, I would have never lived in California, South Carolina or Maryland. I would have never become the person I am now because my experiences would be so different.

12. I would have been a bit more protected and sheltered from the world- of that I am certain.

13. Therefore, I must firmly say "I am where I am supposed to be".........
