Reach for Tomorrow
“The wide expanse of blue-green, froth-crested waves, the endlessly clear sky above and the smiles and elation of the other passengers all seemed to offer a promise, the precise nature of which he wasn’t sure of but which he felt he would understand once he looked into Rosie’s face. And so he stood at the bowrail of the massive passenger ship with his hands gripping the smooth steel and his heart beating with the force of a sledgehammer. Now he was underway, now he had actually made the break a...nd committed himself to going back, he couldn’t believe he had waited five years to see her - and home - again. And yet Rosie had always been with him somewhere deep inside, in the secret recesses of his heart, along with the desire to hear his native tongue and walk familiar northern streets again. He had known he would find her one day, even as he’d fought against the knowledge. And why had he fought it? he asked himself. For a whole host of reasons, but the main one - the one that superseded any other - was the realization he had made the biggest mistake of his life when he had left England.MoreLess
