As I was in London, I stood in the St. Pancras
International Train Station, met with the concrete creation of my abstract thoughts. For 28
years, I stood in contemplation, in something in my mind that was just like
this station. Many trains, many
destinations, many distractions, yet only one train led back to you. I had been
so distracted by the cost of my train ticket and all the thousands of people
lost, like me, that I almost missed the love train. I almost lost you. I almost gave up on us. At "that" time, I
was missing the love inside me that could fuel me to act. But I have it now, so I
finally decided to get outside of my head and contact you. When I called and told
you I was coming back to you, all that I loved, I could hear the excitement,
still, in your voice. So, I had to act for us. The “other” trains I traveled had
taken me away from you for good purpose but had also brought me back with that same
purpose. I was ready to leave the station and get on the love train, to you.
