It has taken time, coeur, compassion, and honesty to finally realise that a precious dream is not able to be fulfilled. This Epiphany has not broken my spirit; rather it has given me clarity and peace. Everything ventured has not been lost.
The "little adventure to Italy" I gave myself as a gift in 2007 changed the way I looked at life and the emotions and experiences of recent years have been an extension of that journey. They have been rich and have penetrated my soul with a depth and longevity I could not have imagined.
Since then, I disentangled myself from many things, because I was focused on my definition of happiness. However life doesn't deliver gifts pre ordered, complete and on a specific date. Rather part of the joy of life is about unravelling the mystery, finding the beauty and then adoring and preserving it.

A thread has unravelled from the tapestry I'd diligently and lovingly stitched and although I do not know the direction it is taking me in, I have finally found the coeur to flow wherever that is.
I hope and pray that in the near future, I can share this journey with someone special. That I find the faith, humility and honesty to fall in love again. To love deeply and fully.
