Long Walk Home on the Lake Erie Shore

[Forrest Gump]

"When we are in the midst of a situation in which we have very little control, how odd that what we seek most is control."

What does that control we seek give us?

Does it help us.. or hinder us?

What if the control we seek in our lives.. does not help us at all?

If you seek control.. do you become controlling?

Do we seek control.. of our lives.. or control of someone else?

"These things are out of our hands."

You have to "lose Control."

"That does NOT mean we are powerless however."

We miss.. we have all the power. The choice becomes.. who am I. How can I stand up.. in all this wind.

"What our spouses have failed to account for in their steadfastness to insist that our relationship is fatally wounded is that"

They want to control us.

Are you willing to give what they are asking for?

Do you know what they are asking for?

"And THAT is both the chink in their armor and our opening to drawing them back."


"Incubus has a song"

Called "Drive"

They.. have another song...

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds
Strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind
Pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy...happy

....

The world's a roller coaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air saying:


I wish you were here.

I agree with Bill.
