Foreword
A cruel day awaited me. The sound of thunder rolled through the clouds and I looked up, instantly shielding my eyes from the ominous torrents of rain clouds. The amazement befuddled me. How could I understand how fate and chance incorporated itself in how life takes direction? I followed the rhythm of the thunder, one clash there and another five seconds later, and moved onwards toward destiny. Yes, fate and chance, with their underlying meanings yet intricate form, plays a role in how we think and act upon challenges. I followed closely to the path, never straying from what my heart said and only listened to my mind. Oh, how the mind overpowers the heart and soul which disrupts our own moral logic, and to the north we follow while striving to be perfect and incorruptible.
Off in the distance a weeping willow tree, full in it's spring bloom, is being struck down by lightning and only I notice it. A cruel life we lead, never noticed when wanted to, never happy and when we finally can be as fate sets in motion, we are struck down like the weeping willow, as beautiful as life itself. I knew it was my day to bring brilliance to my household, since it now was mine. I am never prepared, never fully ready to accept defeat, which is what one must understand before becoming independent and mature. Several years ago, I thought it a good idea to solve the problem of love and it's friends. Love attacks the heart with lust, passion, seduction, and courtship. When I notice a man, my first instinct is to evaluate his physical attributes and if it makes me feel weak and unable to breathe. Physical beauty is what first starts the process of romance. Then I have to learn if the man possesses mental abilities that can outwit my own. If he passes this rigorous test, then I would seduce him into wanting me. Desire is a key role in having a man chase after me. We both will court each other until we agree to share passion. The process was daunting to me, and in the order of lust, seduction, courtship, and passion you could win the heart of any man you wanted. I, of course, never let a man degrade me, for I hold my head up high, never giving him the chance to infiltrate my being. That was most likely my downfall.
I walked faster, for the clouds cried deeply for the tree’s destruction, and would soon encompass me in the process. Thinking over these key elements of romance, I left out one ingredient that I needed to find. Sadly, to my own destruction, I never had to learn of this ingredient, for I already had it. The thunder boomed overhead frighteningly louder, and I, frightened, ran ahead for I feared for my own life, which of course was quite silly of me. The reason for my fear was the haunting of a person who I wished was with me, whose fate would soon be my own.
