| I was recently asked if there was any particular song that reminded me of the time period when I met my wife. I was divorced at the time and raising three teenagers. I had a girlfriend for a while, but things weren't working out, so we kind of drifted our separate ways. I was also trying to rediscover myself at the time. I had come to this conclusion after a few short romances that didn't work out; "I'd be better off to give up dating and looking for that special someone and focus on myself and the children." I was doing just that when I met the mother of a couple of my daughter's friends (sisters). She had come to provide the sisters a ride home, we met and soon we were friends. We had both come to realize that we were better off single and without being in a relationship. But, in my heart, I still longed for someone to share my life with, to share theirs with, and to fill the emptiness inside. We quickly became best friends, and do to circumstances we could not prevent, ended up living in the same house. Love had struck deep and hard without us even realizing it. The song that reminds me of the time frame when love arrived at my door with a simple knock was by the Eagles, it described what I was longing for and what I thought I would never find. |

About The Author
My writing doesn't follow any set genre, it's interdependent of my mood and all that's taking place in life. I'm still finding myself, what I write constitutes the markers along the path of that journey. With time, many things will manifest in my work and perhaps I will pursue one or two genres. For now, it's not, "What type of writing is my passion?"
"Writing is my passion."
