Another Life

Do you ever wonder where you lived or who you loved in another life? I think about that sometimes, and I think that people sometimes miss their moments, that sometimes perhaps they were meant for another life, and even though you are connected to them, that connection will carry through to another world, another life. Life moves on and we forget them, but they are forever connected to us in some emotional way, and in some other world we would have lived differently. In another world, we might be poets, or artists, and reside on the shores of Italy or in the jungles of the amazon. In another life, maybe it's more romantic than this one, maybe it's more of a dream world, maybe it's more inspiring.

I've met people in this life that I think I could have been close to in a different world, and things in this life that have faded, seem so bright in the light of another life. Maybe we get to redo it in another world someday, maybe that's what Heaven is, it's making right all the things missed here in life, maybe it's more romantic, maybe it's getting to be with those people and places that we never could quite connect to here. Maybe my Heaven will be on the shores of Italy or under the Arc de triumphe, maybe I'll be French or Italian, and maybe I'll just be me, no nationality, just human, living and loving passionately and writing... I think that's what was meant for me in another life.
