Amidst the potholes, and until that time when I shall learn to appreciate their own beauty and wonder if it was always there coexisting with the pain, one foot has to be set in front of the other and we move on. Yes we move on but not without carrying anything. I proved that I couldn't do such thing - total detachment. Still now I take fragments with me some bigger than others. Seminary Years are very dear to me, I made some of my best friends there... also some of the more painful acquaintances. This was followed with me taking the leap of faith to Scotland, where I am having this journey, yes of love, and hopefully humanity as well. Love snatched but persistent until timelessness arrives. Simon. But today as I post this I trace back 5 relationships that changed my life the most important taps of it and the one's which are leaving me something today. More than something, actually everything I have... Toni and Francesca | Anthony and Maria | Chris and John | Simon and Joseph | Liz and Robert. The Ogygian is as such for me an idea of relationships and humanity and the pain and the retreat into oneself to reach that place of thought and reflection which hopefully can change ones act for the better. It is not about what you can consume not even what can you contribute it is about something that hovers somewhere between the both. Dedicated to Simon Paul MacFadyen.
