Ch 777.5

The day was one of thousands that blended into each other. He spent his day organizing bills, lighting the pilot light of his heater, working out, and counting the leaves on the tree in his backyard, basically anything to keep his mind from wandering back to her. When everything else failed he retreated to sleep praying that she didn’t find his way into his dreams. As he gazed out his front door and watch the retreating sun he let his thoughts retreat and his strength grow as the days shadows stretched into night. “I know your out there, and I know you feel me,” he said to the amber sky as it swallowed the sun. He was talking to the missing piece of his heart, which he was beganing to understand was broken into two pieces the day she was born. He could feel it beat, he felt all his life, he never doubted it was different, but he craved for the secrets that were unlocked when she was around. The road ahead, the decisions to get where he needed to be were simple to see now. He had one goal, one purpose, and failure was a distant word not in his vocabulary today. He understood time separated them at the moment, he knew so did space, but nothing could stop his thoughts from finding her. “It was time to stop the silence,” he thought. He owed it to himself, he definitely owed to her. As the last sliver of sun disappeared into the dark horizon he couldn’t help but smile because he felt a confidence that was beyond his understanding. He just accepted this gift and smiled becuase he knew at that moment he was exactly where the universe wanted him to be, and he knew his life was about to transform. For once he embraced the discomfort and uncertainity, and looked that challenges of the coming months and years the way a hunter looks at his prey.
