Is Everything Ever Different?

She had made up her mind. The goals were in place and everything was planned out. Luke was gone and would be gone for a long time, long enough for her to accomplish what she'd set out to do. Somehow she never thought that this other man would really come back onto her life though.

They met a short time ago but he quickly disappeared till, as if planned, Luke's departure. He came into her life with force, so strongly that she hardly had time to catch her breath in the situation. He was going to pull apart everything she'd set up in her life. Admittedly it wasn't a bad thing, but it wasn't what she expected to happen in her life and THAT was a bad thing.

Rather than give into this new temptation that arrived she decided to fight and while it was a very difficult thing to do in the beginning she slowly found the strength inside of her to keep him from hindering the self-designed timeline of her life. He kept pushing and working to gain entry but she held strong against the currents that seemed to be working with him.

After working for so long at trying to break down her gates a growing more and more tired of not being capable of making it through he began to think to himself. "If she's fighting this hard to keep me out, could she be happy when I finally did get in?" With that he determined that her gates could remain locked to him and he walked away.

All I've got to say is wow.

Dunno how many times that's happened with me.

Sometimes you just have to do that. Even though it can hurt immensely.

. . . wait, are we talking about keeping the gates locked or walking away? ;)

Probably a little of both!

Dontcha hate how I keep posting twice? Anyway, what I was trying to say is that I have done my fair share of all of the above, and am now trying to live by the mantra: 'Let it be.'
