Bigger Bear Series: Endings, Breaking Free and New Beginnings

(Tang Law by Jerson Samson) 

It's a strange feeling, being here and now, at this very moment.  How did we get to this?  How did I get here --- without you? 

The years just flew by  in a blink of an eye.  And I am here, sitting dazed and lost amidst the swirl of memories and feelings.  I am startled by an epiphany:  So much ... and nothing ... has changed.

I am stardust, propelled here and there by the sheer force of your life; disintegrating; inconsequential against the trail you left behind.  

And, for a while that is a lifetime, I stood here rooted where you left me, dying a slow death.  Endings, when left unattended, have a way of numbing everything.

Then there were the jolts; the jolts that woke me from my stupor; the repeated painful jolts that sloughed off the "me" with you.

You are gone.

And I am reborn.
