(Originally created as a FB note 7/8/09, decided to share my thoughts on this blog).
If someone said this to you would you really do it? I doubt anyone would say this but actions speak louder than words! There are many ways a person can show that they are not going to be a good thing in one’s life and even though this may be true, why do we tend to cling to the fantasy in the words used to make us stand still while they shoot? A shooter can be anyone capable of holding a deceptive piece of steal in their hand. They can be a family member, friend, lover, co-worker, whoever we allow in our personal space. I have almost fell victim to someone’s gun but thankfully my self worth has served as a bulletproof vest. Even though I did not die, the connection to my shooter has. Mournful I am, for my fantasy has revealed itself causing disappointment. However, I am thankful for my rebirth and the clearer view I have gained to see the errors made.
So excuse me while I re-enter this world and dodge many bullets. I may have tripped but I never stood still for anyone to shoot. A moment of silence please for the deceased… Now let’s get it!
