Do you hear the music?

My dearest friend Ann recently shared a story about her love life:

"relationships are like the ice cream truck, you hear him coming

- softly at first - and suddenly he's there." You weren't looking

for an ice cream cone, but now that you see it, you like it.

Like dating, there are many flavors: you decide on the chocolate

dipped cone - with sprinkles - there are two common ways to

ingest: take dainty licks, savoring the creamy taste or one-two gone.

Eventually...the ice cream truck pulls away and the music disappears

Some may be feeling left broken...angry..frustrated..why did the

truck leave? Is HE coming back?! I NEED another cone!!! Why

did I ever get sucked into the cone in the first place?! Darn you,

Darn you, ice cream truck!

Others remember, the ice cream truck will come back -- perhaps

a better truck will come? with cones tasting sweeter than the last.

The music invites those who are listening -

So, Do you hear the music?
