If. If.

A Story by Gillian E. Shanks

About Me

Gillian, 22, Postgrad of Psychology.
I've been away for a while, but I'm back now.

Things I have realised:

My mother really is the best friend I'll ever have.

Too much alcohol causes some people to be something they aren't, and that includes myself.

That love, no matter what, can over come anything.

That loving someone, to me, is the greatest and strongest feeling I will ever know.

And I wish life were everything a musical is. I've found my prince charming - just gotta make him sing to me ;)

************************************************************

Sometimes everything gets too much for me and I feel the need to express it constructively, but I also use some of my pieces to assure others that they are not alone. Life gets easier when you've got someone to share it with.

I use imagery to show my views on most things, if I feel like the underdog, I will write the words of the underdog itself. If I feel like I could fly like a bird... hear me sqawk.

I enjoy playing around with words and constructing clever ways to keep the reader interested, please tell me if this works for you.

I only write for fun, I'm not planning on becoming the worlds greatest writer... I used to have aspirations as such for becoming an actress, but that soon turned to just a wishing-star I may catch if it falls into my hands.

I'm sorry if I don't read and review your piece but I come on here as often as I can, although sometimes I don't think that's often enough. I do try, if it's something you desperately want me to read, send me a private message. :) Thanks.

*************************************************************

"The greatest thing you'll learn is to love, and to be loved in return"
- Moulin Rouge

I will always believe in love. That is my solemn oath to you.

"How many Psychologists does it take to change a light bulb?
- Only one... but first the light bulb must WANT to change."

Hehe, comedy is the greatest cure to the heart. When things go bad... smile, and the whole world will smile with you!

Love to all.

Esoteric Theosophical Philosophy

The truth within your consciousness is like the horizon that recedes before you. As you journey towards your inner quest in the direction of the leading edge of your belief acceptance. And your knowledge and understanding of the prevailing path grows, the next ascending possibility will always beckon you forth. For wisdom brings together within the truth of your existence, your souls essence, in which is attained by your own experience. Pursue your goal of achieving the truth within your reality of consciousness, in the most direct manner. The paradox is of course, is that you are both the voyager and the pathway; the treasure that you seek is most often slumbering within you or undeveloped in your quest. Its always within you, has always been, and always will be. It has not been hidden from your sight, for the most part, its likely you have hidden from it, so wake it up, face it, and accept it, than use it, by becoming it.

Ah, romance is lovely. I'm a hopeless romantic. lol I read your beau's Prolouge, very nice, and left a comment. I lost my best friend to a drug overdose about 4 years ago. I miss him every day. We were best friends for 35 years. He was my brother, more than a brother to me. But his accident left him crippled in body and spirit and the oxycontin they gave him to ease the pain worked in a way unforseen by the doctors, he just slipped away. I feel lost and alone without him. My poem Stetson Days is about both of us way back when. But you see why I champion friendship so? I miss the friends that are no more.

They can't take my writing from me, its posted in too many places. lol i.e., Appalachian Writers, Cold Coffee (a new website) come check it out at ning. I'll send you a link. Then there's my main homepage at http://nickbunny.mutiply.com, and I don't even like myspace but have an account there and one at facebook and sometimes I post in the comment boxes of "gingatao", my aussie pals website, just to keep him on his toes. lol

Thank you for reading my (Words) lol It is one of my own favorite children. I am so happy you felt the meaning of the piece, therein lies the power of words; to stir even a stranger's soul to tears or laughter, to bring them a righteous rage of indignation or a soothing envelope of peace. My best to you. Blessings of peace and love.

The Captain Valentine story was written for Natalie C so there's much of it that you won't understand (he he!) - especially the end where she received a different part to all the WC readers. The story actually has more holes than a pair of old socks and was written for fun.
