When I am swimming in your seas and in your oceans...

[sihayadesigns]

Every time I hear this song, I am reminded of a time of ecstatic joy. Hands around my waist, a crowd swaying in rhythm. Synchronicity. A kiss on the back of my neck. Heart swelling, bursting with gratitude and love. My cup was so full, it spilled over. Everything shone brighter-- I was illuminated by grace, by magic.

Now, when I hear this song, I wonder if I will ever feel that again-- so happy, so complete, so sure. I don't know if I ever will. It almost brings me to tears.

You will. You're a fantastic, dynamic, amazing woman who will attract nothing but the best people to you.

Fantastic song, one of my favorites and I've never been ashamed to admit it, much unlike many people I know.

I think the lyric is, "Well, I am swimming..." though...

"Which song?" he asked, risking being labeled both nosy and ignorant.

And then he realized it was "Crash", and they had covered this and, oh yes, he had wasted a good self-grammar natziing on this.

Life is like that ... up, down, and then somewhere in between ... I've been re-reading my old paper journals written during my chaotic twenties, and I can clearly see how desperately I wanted someone to just pick *me*, if that makes sense. For anything. Needing, and wanting, and worrying, and trips to the bar, feeling like I was coasting along, and why didn't that guy call me back?, and so on ...

Maybe it's just time for you to figure stuff out.

Syncronicity, ah, yes, I remember those moments. Fleeting, like footsteps left behind in dewy grass. And, that song does bring me to tears.

I am not sure what you are talking about, but my five-year old reasoning skills tell me you went through a bad breakup lately, as have I.

So, I can say I both empathize AND sympathize with you.

It looks like you have a lot of friends to help you through it, though.

Chin up, you will be okay. And yes, you will feel that way again, if you don't do what I did: let the bitterness get to you.

Peace and love,
