Once upon a time, in the land of let's pretend....there was a friendship between two lonely swans. It blossomed into a friendship of love, trust, caring, mutual respect and the stuff that made them both sleep well at night with positive feelings between the two of them.....the stuff that dreams are made of.... This friendship continued for quite a few years, until one day an eagle, who had been watching from a distance for quite some time, swooped down upon the swans....spreading its wings in a glorious show of grandeur.....and saying..."Come to the land of milk and honey and get the monkey off of your back" One swan looked away and thought nothing of it, but the other was mesmermised and hypnotized, so much so, that she flew away with the eagle leaving the other swan, her beloved friend behind. The swan, left behind, cried for many days and nights and continued to wait for her friend. She wanted to die. She felt no need to live anymore. She could not believe that her best friend left her for so long, and could not accept it. Some days she swung at windmills and tired to fight bravely for the love she had once known. Her friend visited once in a while, but the feelings between the two were gone., Her friend was different. The genuiness between them was gone. It was only smoke and mirrors.... Sadly, after a very long time, the swan left and decided to venture to another land of let's pretend to look for another friend....but any friend she begins with...there is the eagle again spreading its wings with promises of a land of milk and honey.... to be continued...or not.....
