I know I have to continue the story I began two posts earlier, but I have the need to write about what is happening now. three posts ago I wrote about the ocean, the tide, a hotel room and solitude. I wondered the time line and what I had to anticipate. I now know the answer. It is today, it was yesterday and it will be tomorrow again. I am here and have been for almost two weeks now. Carefully and safely tucked away in the outbacks of a distant city, quietly contemplating both the past and the future. I am no longer under the auspices of all those that were so controlling and domineering. Those who would throw me away like yesterday's newspaper so easily when they were through with me. Those that lied and stole and betrayed me. Those who caused me to cry when all I wanted to be was happy. Those whom I trusted and then used me for their own sick amusement. I am gone now and I am not coming back, not for a very long time.

Ciao for now.
