At 7:51 AM, SHE said...: here are the lessons I've taken away from this experience. -from, like a decade ago..

1. the writing of these poems and the creating of this book were necessary steps in my healing process.

2. i share this planet with men who are capable of looking me straight in the eye, and sharing intimate experiences -while simultaneously being married to someone else, and neglecting to mention...

this level of deceit is beyond my own comprehension, but i know now people are capable of it, -and am no longer surprised; just cautious

3. the very intense feelings i experienced at the time

-and for some time..

are utterly and entirely gone now.

-that is the most fascinating aspect for me now, -that my feelings were so intense, raw, big.. at the time..

but if this same man were to walk up to me today..

Nothing.

time heals.. is a fact; a truth we can count and rely on..

as is Jesus.. as a mighty counselor and the Prince of Peace..

-process your pain away.. amen!
At 8:22 AM, SHE said...: -same topic/different chapter: it is true, -there is marriage, legal marriage on paper, -but not of the heart. and heartfelt marriages for which there are no legal papers..
-same with divorce...
and in my own experience.. I was emotionally divorced way in advance of being legally divorced; in each of my 2 1/2 marriages... -and so, wide window opportunity here, to see my potential for hypocrisy...
