Really beautiful! And the funny thing is I found this through Patrick Hughes' "Signs" film, because someone linked your blog in a comment (on dailymotion, where I saw the film). I'm glad I followed the link. :) I've had my share of "I-shoulda-moved-first-now-it's-too-late" stories. They're really sad, but that's life, right? Learn from it, move on. Who knows what might have happened? What's to say you would've been happy? Really beautiful, very touching story, very well written. Thank you for it! All the best Hi David,

I found it touching and very well written, the essence of art is not to convey what the artist feels but to arouse a feeling, or emotional reaction from those who view or in this case read the art. You have succeeded beyond measure. There is no one reading your story that hasn’t had a secret love, though most are not as lucky, if I may dare call you lucky, enough to have the object of our affection know it. As for the rest of us we can only love our Lucy from afar. I look forward to more stories on your blog, as an inspiration I may even get up the courage to attempt to put some of my writing out on a blog of my own. Good luck my friend you never know what the future holds. I hope that someday you meet Lucy face to face. <strong>Many thanks Andy and good luck with the writing David Raho</strong> I followed a link from another web site to your story; the owner of which is a very beautiful friend of yours.

As Shawn Baker said, maybe your girl in the window will find herself reading this. Romantics are allowed to hope. I'd like to repost this on my site (with links and all, of course). That it started as a casual thing and that you missed your chances the way you did makes the story so fascinating. It could happen to all of us. Finding her through her reading your post will make a perfect 'ending'. <strong>Glad you liked it Donna. I have a few more writings in the pipeline so please come back soon. Yes indeed, romantics always hope for the perfect ending but in a way it is nice to have such a beautiful memory untainted by the ravages of time and the realities of middle age lives. I have permitted my self a little nostalgia. Please feel free to post an extract with a link to the site as it is nice to give others a chance for a browse too.

She was the most radiant soul I had ever met. We were partnered up for exercises once and I found out that she was a graphic designer who was going to give it all up to become a yoga teacher; I thought that was the bravest thing I'd ever heard. I moved classes and, eventually, moved house. Looked for local yoga classes and, amazingly, found one that she was teaching. She remembered me but she was engaged to her boyfriend of ten years. Still, she was a great teacher and I kept up with her classes. I didn't do anything. Well, I must have done something but I can't imagine what it was. I still don't know what I did but she left him for me; we've been together for a year and I'm out looking for an engagement ring that's good enough for her (almost impossible!). I don't understand why she fell in love with me, anymore than I understand why Lucy fell in love with you but I know that she did and I know how special that feels. We spend too much time trying to understand and not enough time just accepting that we are in love and we are incredibly lucky to be in love. I think you have accepted what happened but don't ever assume the story has ended. I wish you all the luck in the world. <strong>What a wonderful story. Thanks for sharing this with me. I wish you all the best for the future. Regards David Raho</strong> Thanks David,
