Silhouettes…

Last week I was leaving home as the sun was setting behind the horizon.

I took a couple of photos. 

Then I just sat a few minutes and watched it change.

There is a lot to be said for change. They say it’s constant and one of the few things
we can count on happening forever. I guess it’s not really change though if you don’t
stop and watch it happening, consider yesterday and contemplate tomorrow.
I’ve taken to stopping a lot recently and watching the changes around me,
or more accurately inside me. I’ve listen to a couple of my friends
as they said things like "…You sure seem a lot happier..".  I agree, I am
a lot happier. Of course, thinking back over my 48 years of life I guess I’ve gone
through many periods of happiness, followed by times of distress and uncertainty.

This time is different though,  a difference that I find difficult to put into words.
The closest thing I can think of when it comes to trying to explain it
is the scene in the movie, "The City of Angels"

Seth: What does it taste like?
Maggie: You don’t know what a pear tastes like?
Seth: I don’t know what a pear tastes like to you.

Of course if you have seen the movie then you know that he had no ‘eartly’ idea of what a peach would taste like to a human. I find myself in a similiar situaton today. I find myself having feelings and auras that I find really difficult, no… impossible to describe so that anyone else can understand it. Fortunately to the one that matters the most I don’t  have to explain it. She knows the fellings just like I knew the sound of her "I love you Keith" before she ever said it. In the dialog after I heard it she explained how she knew exactly when she realized it and I explained how I felt it before she expressed it to me in words. I can only hope she feels the same way about
the feelings I can’t express – actually, I know she does.

Is it just me or are the words, " I LOVE YOU"  just too limited in scope for eternity.
