He said he's seeing someone new

[Ophelia]

Just copying something I wrote in another thread just now. There's a thread on the "Hopefulness" board where people can post hopeful song lyrics. Someone (missmyfriend) posted:

About a week ago, as I was getting out of the shower, this song came on the radio. (I had been asking God to let me know that He was there for me) I felt He was the one singing to me.

Then they posted the lyrics to the song that came on the radio.

Anyway, here's what I just got done posting in that thread....

missmyfriend, I was just reading your post a few minutes ago, thinking what a wonderful "sign" it was for you. Something you'd been asking for to let you know that you weren't really alone.

Anyway, I sat here and thought, "What I wouldn't give for some inspirational and hopeful song to come on the radio right now, just to give me a sign that I shouldn't give up hope altogether," (have been feeling particularly pessimistic the last couple of days). Then I forgot about it, because as if something like that would actually happen just because I was hoping for it. I pondered switching off the radio and going to have a shower, but instead went to the kitchen to get a snack, then came back to the computer. The song that was on the radio finished up and the next one started. It's not exactly a romantic song...or a hopeful song....or an inspiring song....it was "Summer of '69" by Bryan Adams....

Thing is, H and I first "met" on an email mailing list for BA fans. The first day we met in person, we went into a music shop with pianos, and H sat down and played "Everything I Do" for me, (he'd been practicing at home because he'd had it planned and was super nervous and worried he'd stuff it up). When H proposed to me, we were in the front row at a BA concert. He was in the middle of singing "Everything I Do" and I felt a tap on my arm and turned around to see H holding a ring....

Anyway, point is, BA is our thing that brought us together, and here I was wishing for some song to come on the radio to give me some hope, and it just happened to be a BA song. Of all the billions of songs that coulda come on the radio at that exact point in time, (not to mention if I had have gone for that shower instead and turned the radio off and not been sitting here to hear it). And yes, perhaps it was a freakish coincidence, but I'm gonna choose to blissfully ignore that possibility, because for the first time in several days I'm actually feeling a bit better about things.
