Months ago I took a stand to move on with my life. I found in u the basis of my loving in the first place. You r all that makes me glow. Your love o Lord keeps me alive...I just realize how I do not see it and often forget to take note. You r all that I need. You r enough for me. I always felt that my moving on would spur him on to do the same. But from his words, I see that he has to make up his own mind. I decided to remove the basis of our 'relationship'. If there is no question of relationship, would things not change? Why does something that seem so simple be so complicated? All we want to try to do is be cordial or at least be friends. For him, he needed to take a journey and I was glad he was going that route. Not for me. For him. For me, I just want to bask in this love divine. And I have been doing just that.

We want to do things the way it really should be done; the way the father would have us do it- that it may yield the result he alone had promised. The last time I wrote in this journal, I said a lot about my fight. Yes. And the war has started. and going exactly as it should. Its just in the bid to get me back separated only unto my father. To have a distinct identity of my own and not attached to anyone. Well, this is the plan. This is how it should be. But my internal turmoil remains. Its not that there are no emotions involved. There is one I truly love but if only he could fight with me or for me. If only someone; just one person could see this and do that for me...and if only this person could be u. If only. So even though I pray and hope for a miracle to happen, I have to step off the scene, behind the whole d...
