The distance is the dilemma.
The pain that on-line relationships bring is a paradox. The jealousy is
just as in real life, yet without true commitment since the two are truly
not together. There is an unfulfilled knowledge of another inside a very
deep knowing. There is a longing for love and a desire to live it. This
is a medium that may drive us to madness, yet like anything that is obsessive,
it will either be our undoing and or a huge learning experience. There
is a real life and we are in it, and in a personal way of pursuing that
life. The ultimate truth is in not really knowing anything and yet the
pursuit of that knowing remains our passion for life and the things that
nothing creates.
I will not say good bye as in
forever. I will say, you are a great person and I wish you well in your
travels and here is to hope we may meet again (even though we haven't,
really).
