Scribesmeister v4 (In Zero Gravity)

“Eternity makes itself felt both in lasting relationships and those that last only for a time. In neither case is the soul concerned with literal time, but rather with the tone of the event. If it evokes eternity, then the friendship itself remains in imagination for endless time, even if the personal relationship does not.” – Thomas Moore 

The readings given by Fr. Junrey, my mentor and close friend, are very timely for its ability to encapsulate my feelings right at this point in my life. And I remember what he asked me before I left, “Have you truly let him go?”. Silence. Hesitation. Faltering. A word escaped. Yes.  He looked at me, now with probing eyes. “I mean, can you see your future without him being a part of it? Can you walk that road without stopping and thinking about what you’ve left?”  

“Yes” was my reply with a voice just above a whisper. I shook my head, “I’m trying. Still trying. I just wish I could snap my fingers and forget about it all but I can’t do it that way, can I?”  

Then later this day, I’ve learned… 

The worst is not yet over. It has just begun.
