To Whom It May Concern

To whom it may concern, I am nobody special. Just a traveler on a road of uncertainty, the road of life. As I have made this journey, I have done the right thing, and I have done the wrong. I am willing to take responsibility for both. Initially, the good years of my life outweighed the bad. Sadly I now find the bad increasing in number, to overshadow the good. I believed that people and their intentions were basically good. I believed in truth, honesty, and I believed in love. My beliefs gave me faith in myself. Since then, I have seen goodness disappear, watched love quickly die, and faith in myself, faded away. They are now found in a cast off book of fairy tails. I foolishly lived my life as me. But there were demands for me to be somebody else. The end result was the same. I have listened when I should have spoken. I have spoken,but only silence was heard. I have tried to make changes many times, but given up even more. As all of us, I will see this journey through. It will be as it will be. If one would be interested in reading this. and it would strike a chord. Then, it truly was worth my while. To whom it may concern...

Thank you Heidi. I wasn't too sure about it. But it came easily after I started. Write what you feel. An open honest way to go.

Sandra, I am waiting to read the poem wherein you've gathered yourself and freshly see the wonderful person you are, so(!) capable of writing wonderful poems such as this one. I think you are just great, and so are your poems! ~ Gershon, 'a shadow of his former self,' but whose life has never been better. Smiles, gw
