Under The Moon & Stars

Meeting someone you feel you have known from lives before.

And then, I think

We were never really lost to each other

But merely had our own journeys to complete

Our own adventures to be had

Our own battles to fight

Our own demons to conquer

So that when we finally meet

Somewhere under the moon and stars

We can spend the rest of eternity just talking

Or in silence

Content with the peace and tranquility

After a lifetime of storms.

very emotive for me! one can not help but think of an elevated love larger than self at work here ;) no better place for it to unfold than under the moon and stars :) nice pic to go with says i ..love and happiness seems to require a certain amount of chaos, confusion and pain to bring us to that bigger love .. deja' vous experiences seem to sharpen our intuitive resources and helps us pay attention to such mysteries .. i like the free form ..very smooth reading ... strong theme and story in few lines .. the humanness and honesty precludes the need for anything flowery and scented or colored ;) its just nitty gritty with a big dream attached :))))))))

Yes, exactly. It's two people who understand the importance and the distinction of their own respective journeys that eventually led them to each other... but their journeys are still their own. It's finding love after finding enlightenment alone, so love is no longer possessive or all consuming, but fulfilling in its peaceful understanding of the universe. Thanks for your sincere review, I appreciate it truly.

some connections can never be severed, some connections happen so fast it seems a result of previous acquaintance:) That feeling of speaking without words is a rare occurrence and one that is so precious to have nice lines... Muse

This feels like the meeting of soul mates to me. When you've just met someone new and yet you feel you have known the other for eternity. A rare occurrence yet I believe it happens. Perfect contentment. The missing piece of the puzzle found. First one of yours I have read. Welcome to WC A Musing. Good to read you.

Yes, it has happened for me, and it wasn't bewildering or swept me off my feet... it was as you described 😊

Thank you for welcoming me, I am enjoying the experience so far and have been inspired from reading from others.

I look forward to reading more of yours. Take care and thanks for the review!

You are very welcome and I wish you well here.

Growth and maturity allow us to really appreciate what's important and allows us to fully open our hearts to another. I look back on my younger years and just shake my head at the stupid mistakes I made, the relation-ships that sunk in hopeless harbor (thank God!). The peace and tranquility is what we all come to need, what we have needed all along.

Same! Disappointments that served us well in the long run, hey?

Thank you for the correction, I have amended. Much appreciated and thank you for reading and your kind review.

Such an expression of understanding of the journey that sometimes must be traveled before we reach the destination we long for. Then to know that the times of despir and the storms they wrought are at last behind.

Take care - Dave

Thank you Dave, I like to think even if I'm not religious, nor have I solidified my beliefs on what the meaning/purpose of life is... I at least have grown to realise or have lived long enough to see the years following bad times; the lessons to be learnt, and that growth and inner peace are chosen through conscious actions and choice, not as automatic reward
