Hello Venerina,
Thank you for a wonderful story. It is so important to let ourselves love. I would much rather end up with a few scars than to never have had the feeling.

Thank you Venerina,
Like you and Micheal I too resonate with the old man.  :)
There is a prayer from one of the Asian cultures that says something to the effect of, 'shatter my heart so I may love anew'.
Meaning, without the heartbreak we will never know the depths of love.
Thanks for the new forum I look forward to participating at Adland again, it's been a while for me and this is exactly the kind of things I want to talk about.  ;)
Espavo,
Ally
