The Enchanted

So, a friend of mine's blog got me thinking (thanks Ter).....
about relationships.
or partnerships.
or marriages.
or whatever we even call them these days.

Just part of what Ter wrote (which may or may not make sense taken out of its original context).....

"...it certainly has taken me a long time.
and.....once you touch it, doesn't mean you've got it.
it's a constant thing to work at.
it can drift away in a moment..."

That's some heavy duty stuff right there, no matter what "it" is to you.

I was thinking about how there's an enchanting phase of most relationships. It's the phase where the other person helps you or does things for you or offers to you because they want to, not because they feel somehow responsible to. Yanno?
Well, and how about you (Tina)? How long does the phase last for you?

Terri is so right. Once you touch it, doesn't mean you've got it.
And it IS a constant thing to work at.
And it CAN drift away in a moment.

Wonder why God/dess makes it that way?
