every line of this was so pretty and nearly every line was very original. I loved "a lover's path 'unmapped' because it says so much about relationships in general. Wonderfully done, Rhonda. Congrats on your second place win.

Thanks, Andrea! This really cheered me up. You had some wonderful entries. I had to go to the hospital today for a cocktail of steroids, so I'm just starting to feel better...THANK GOD!!! I'm home now, still recovering. Thanks again...hugs, Rhonda
