Someone else's story may be the first chapter of your story... and you don't know it?... And when that is suddenly revealed to you, you hit the ground running, laughing or crying, depending on the circumstances...
And then some of us deny that something huge... powerful... unknown... controls people's "stories"... How many nights have we stayed up drawing the "plan", and at the dawning of the morning we were surprised that the "plan" was "drawn" in a way we did not know... They used to talk a lot about love, because they were young!!
In the years when we feel the presence of the "heart" clearly, our feeling of hunger may not overpower it.
They were, and I was one of them.
