The fortune teller was right. The address she gave me was exactly as she described it. Now what do I do? I can use the rusty old key and open this door. Or I can walk away.
"If you enter this room, a new life awaits you. There is no turning back, once you open the door the new life takes over. A new identity, a new personality, you will never remember any part of your old life."I've been complaining to all who want to listen how I can't take this one anymore. But am I ready to take the leap to something else? What will be the new life? What will be the new me? Will it be any better? Just different? Is this like life after death? My hands are shaking, I can barely see in front of me. Yet, I so want to open that door. I crave change like I crave new skin.
What the heck. A new life, we all wish it one time or another, now I can simply just insert the key in that innocent key hole and walk across to the unknown. One tiny step, I'll just see if the key fits...

Sounds might tempting ... that step over the line with key in hand! Nice job!
ReplyDeleteOh scary - what lies behind the door - what will the key unlock? It's bit like the locked away areas in our minds.
ReplyDeleteYAY Miss Nikki - that was great! Glad you found Magpie Tales. I love seeing what everybody writes.
ReplyDeleteOoo, it's like the matrix. Which pill to take?... Enjoyed reading this.
ReplyDeleteBut what do we leave behind? What has meaning and what does not. Each tiny thing, we'll never know what we miss or what we leave behind, unless we take that road of no return. Good Luck to you whatever you decide. I want to hear all about it, when you look sideways, not up or down.
ReplyDeleteoooh my- what will she do? I don't think I could possible leave one life for the unknown
ReplyDeleteAhhhh....something we have all wondered about, I'll wager. But how many are brave enough to turn the key?
ReplyDeleteI'm on the edge of my seat!
ReplyDeletea key point is made here,
ReplyDeletea single action could lead to dramatic changes in life, including creating a new life....
beautiful magpie!
Thanks for all your comments on this... It was my first magpie, such fun! I especially like what Jingle has to say: "a single action could lead to dramatic changes in life, including creating a new life...." so true... Looking forward to -a- reading your magpie's and -b- the next magpie!
ReplyDeleteOooohhh..this was so suspenseful...and the thought about this new life was almost scary really! Would I ever want to see if the key fits? And if it did, would ever turn it the right way?... Brrr... I don't know if I even want to know the answers to these dark questions...but they sit somewhere in the corner of my mind..
ReplyDeleteAn excellent and thought provoking, this! Kudos...
great! That would be a tough turn!
