Seen from a distance, a far off reality collides with a dream. The tiny stepping stones lead the way in a weaving path upon the water's surface. Stepping gingerly upon each stone my mind swirls around the events from the stone prior. A tiny chain ties around one foot, connecting loosely to a stepping stone miles behind. To be released and truly be free - of the past indecent proposals and adventures left numb upon the heart. Looking out at the aqua waters barely moving, grazing over the white stones and over ones feet. There are no clouds, or storms, to disrupt the clarity. Sunshine kisses bare shoulders and provokes thoughts of moving forward. The warmth that moves through the body shelters the heart from pain. If only tomorrow the chain would break away - but time is a mystery. Each day with the burden only means another day of growing stronger. Strength when it is all over.... is more than one can wish for.
