Still Hopeful...

As I look back on the past 7+ years I have to give myself credit. For the most part I hung in there, just hoping to get my shot @ communicating with 'Chele again. Than almost 3 weeks ago, I got that shot. In the span of a lifetime, it was just the blink of an eye, but it was more than I expected. I was finally able to tell her that I still care, that I still love her after all these years. And that blink of an eye was all I could've ever hoped for, much less gotten. And though my hopes were dashed, I still have hope. Hope that when I get back to Vegas in October that I can start again and have a decent life. Hope sustained me for all these years, and in reality it's all I have.
