I Think I Am A Slow Learner

There comes a point
in your life when you realize

Who matters
Who never did,
Who won't anymore
and who will

So, don't worry
about people from your past

There's a reason why
they didn't make it
to your future....

Not long ago
received this in the mail
as part of a larger message

It says a lot
thought I would post
this morning....

Yes. We now know how to 'cut to the chase.'

Now isn't that exactly the way it is!! On the other hand, I suppose I've been cut out of someone's past too, but it's o.k. with me at this stage of my life.

I think we recognize what is true when we are ready to receive it. I have had to let people go from my life for my own sake, but I was not able to do that until I could accept that deep feeling of loss.

I am going to post those words on my large message blackboard. They sound rather Zen. -- barbara
