It’s break time and I just stepped off the elevator into my employer’s lobby. Music blasting in my ear with my favorite tune, my mind begins to wander. I stay in the building and stand in front of one of the biggest, darkest window.
I see a female who was once strong and happy. I see a female who’s walked a few paths and experienced events too big to handle on her own. I see a female standing with darkness, her newest companion.
I see rain falling from her eyes. Each drop cries with pain as it splashes trying to be heard. The lightning lights up the dreams she once thought every day and night. I hear thunder booming the sounds of her cries and frustrations. With each lightning and thunder a visual of this female is cracking and breaking. Pieces of her are slowly falling turning into droplets hitting the ground forming a gigantic puddle.
I receive a text message. It’s one of my best friends. The breaking image I watched in the window pulls itself together. Now I see me staring back at me. I respond to my message and head back upstairs ready to work.
Signed,
The Wondering Virgo

Ive had a lot of moments like this. ESP recently. Losing oneself and feeling at a loss is hard enough to deal with then add family issues and LIFE issues and it feels like youre a mess. Yet it seems like only women deal with this kind of thing. SIGH.
Love ya.
