All Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

"Things come wrapped up in time, like the past in a present, or the perfect line in a song.
 They take their time, and when they're gone, they take their time with them.
 And you can't have them back, because the time for them has gone,
 And their time has gone with them..."

With a weekend break in Ireland to look forward to in a few days time, the title and picture associated with this blog seem entirely appropriate. But there is another analogy to the 'All Good Things Come To Those Who Wait' reference...other than the anticipation of a decent pint of guinness!
Additionally, the opening lyrics taken from a song called 'Wrapped Up In Time' are also relevant when you consider what I wrote in my last blog, 'Silent Reflection':

"...I believe I've finally gained closure on my past with regards to matters of the heart, and although it hurts I know that I can at last move on with my life..."

Well, life does indeed move on...

After hopefully enjoying some wonderful Irish hospitality in Co.Laois courtesy of Ruth, Glenn, and 'Rose, I will return to these shores fully refreshed and raring to go as I plan the next phase of my life.
I had originally hoped to come back with some rather exciting personal news of a romantic nature to share with you all, but alas this isn't the case...it was just another false dawn I'm afraid to say.
Yet I remain an eternal optimist, and a hopeless romantic...so my time will come one day, of that I'm sure.
I retain the belief that good things happen to good people, and everybody gets what they deserve in the end, be it good, bad or indifferent. I like to think of myself as a good person, with a kind soul and a big heart, so once again I believe my time will come...eventually!

It also now looks very likely that my intended birthday celebrations in New Zealand in October aren't going to happen either, due to my current financial situation making it near impossible.
But I do have alternative plans for these two weeks in October in place, which could prove quite exciting from a personal point of view...so watch this space, as I'll reveal all next time!

And finally...

A Tale of Two Angela's
