The Distance Kept Us Close : Looking Forward to Going Back

THE DISTANCE KEPT US CLOSE is the sequel to I'VE KISSED YOU FOR THE LAST TIME. The author continues to explore his post-divorce relationships with himself and others. He explores his relationship to his work, play, the world, and God. This is a book about guiding one's life, not being led through it. This book tells of a time for deciding what to hold on to, what to release; what to seek, what to share. It is about a time for creating distance in some areas, while drawing closer in others. There seem to be times that distance actually keeps the author close to someone he had loved. At other times, the distance does exactly what it's meant to do. It avoids all near occasions to pain that seeing a former love can bring. But, sometimes, distance distorts relationships, making some look better than they actually had been in real time. That's when it's time to close the distance again to clear up any lingering illusions and delusions one may hold about lost love.
