A Sweet Warning -- Don’t Hang on to the Past
It had given her so
much comfort to think that she could share her thoughts with him when she felt
terribly to go through what she had to face. It seemed to have a hollow and
empty hole inside her heart.
He was the only
person whom she had ever been truly herself with was. How could she let him go
after the reunion even though they didn’t meet in person at all? She didn’t
dare to let it leak out to him about how much she missed him after they drifted
apart. Wasn’t it a real problem?
The things should be taken
carefully account of:
For the sake of
your heart and mind, you are strongly suggested that you be careful before you take
a move and face the undeniable but cruel facts.
The one you’re
going to meet is no longer that one you knew two decades ago. How could a woman
stay the same at her forties or beyond as she was at twenties?
There are huge
differences of appearance and movement too obvious to ignore. It seems fair
enough that hard or even easy living could take its toll on a woman’s skin,
hair, and weight. You can surely scrutinize it while talking that dark circles
under eyes, the crow's feet at the
corners of the eyes and wrinkles appearing over the whole face, giving that
social smiles. The patches of gray hair at the temples and around the crown are oblivious to your attention.
It’s a guarantee
that she won’t be recognized when one looks at her yearbooks from high schools to the graduate school. Her
physical attraction seems kindly to be replaced by a compliment -- a sort of character of being professional in dress and grooming,
in a world which puts such value on a woman’s looks.
Are you still
confident that you won’t have a terrible shock or a heart attack? Won’t you
regret the whole thing for the rest of your life? Shouldn’t
you keep the best between you and her in your memories?
The thoughts in her mind become unavoidably complicated and calculated as time has gone by for decades. That is beyond what you could imagine and it is definitely not the one you knew when you both were 24.
Don’t you take a
second thought for the planning of meeting? Doesn’t it scare at you at all? Are
you able to mesmerized yourself that everything is going to be “fine?”
And, are you certain she won’t play a drama in front of others?
You could imagine she,
as a single mother, can’t help but let her exhausted body slouch down on the
chair after work when the uncomfortable feelings of menopause bring to her as aging comes on. The physical strength is no longer her friend you
learn that too.
You’re right about it to dig out the real
reason why the writing from her to you is persisted in and shows a passion for
you. But, what is the point if you know the truth?
She is an absolutely
lonely woman pushing her fifty you know without a doubt. How can you be so
brave to plan on meeting? Curiosity kills the cat even though it is nothing about jeopardizing your marriage.
Again, please think through because you still can cancel the meeting at the last minute. She
should take it willingly since this is your call. Getting cold feet is an “okay!” There won’t be a thing about embarrassment, please remember. You’re not coldhearted,
but don’t you treasure what you’ve had already? Can’t you find happiness at home?
A thought of vengeance on breakup hasn’t been your intention, but how could you expect a sweet taste
of the meeting, which might leave aftertaste of guilt? Don’t you worry about today
or the past, either of which might ruin tomorrow?
