Through Raphael's eyes

Are all women like this?
Do they all seem to fall in love with you then fall out of love again?
Somebody please give me an answer!

I mean,yeah I really love Opal,but she doesn't seem to understand the amount of love I have for her.She's a strong woman,that I can clearly see,but she also has a painful past.
She's been torn down and her heart seems to be shattered into pieces.
I'm not an angel.I'm not perfect,but there's one thing that I am.I'm a man who can love her.A man who can love her right.I just wish that she'd let me enter her heart.She's like a complicated equation,but then again there's a solution to every equation despite its complexity.

I walked all the way to some tree,then I saw medium sized feet,feet of the woman I love.She really loved trees.
She was fast asleep.I put my hand on her forehead.She was sweaty too.I kissed her cheek then she shifted aside.

I decided not to bother her any longer.
I was curious about the mysterious book.Luckily Opal taught me how to read.

I took the book from my sack.I started reading...

Day 26
I'm finally adapting to this place.
To be quite honest,I don't want to go back.Back to my life.A life where I was so unhappy.A life where I never did anything for anybody.A life void of God.Me being in this place has taught me lessons.I've learnt that happiness is truly a choice to be made by me.I've learnt that God has always loved me,even if I was a bitter old man.I also learnt that I'm not physically here.My subconscious or much rather my spirit is here.But there's one thing I don't know.My way out...

J.G

I kept pondering on what James Gilden wrote.Was it true?Is my spirit really here?If so where in the world is my body?Creepy huh?

James Gilden learnt something while being here.I've been in this place for about 24 days(I think),yet I haven't learnt a thing...

This knowledge seemed to be above my intellect.I decided to pray.God knows more than I do.He is the Creator of the heavens and earth afterall.

"Heavenly Father I thank You for this wonderful day.I thank you for giving me life,even though I do not deserve it.You alone are God and You alone have my life in Your hands.I may not know what's going on here,but You do.To be honest Lord,I know there's somewhere I have to be.I can't live here forever.I need to find my way out.I ask for knowledge and understanding.Help Opal to find her way to You.Help her to understand that You love her and help her to open her heart to let me love her too.

In the name of Jesus I've prayed
Amen"

I looked at the stars above.I remembered my life.My real life.
I started to feel like I wasn't where I belonged.There's more to life than money.There is more to life than sadness.From that day on I made a solemn oath to myself.I made a decision.I chose to be happy.

I looked to my left and my eyes landed on the beautiful Opal.If I was in the real world I would've married her.Oblivious to the fact that I don't know her that much.
She's just so beautiful and her inner self is just so radiant.

I stared at her.I heard the sound of her breathing.It felt like music to my soul.
I know I sound corny,but it really did.
I love her.

I really do.
