I BELIEVE

And if you get all seven Chaos Emeralds

And pick up the Tow-Rope

And obtain every Aeon
And Save Nanami

And do your daily push-ups enough so that you at least don't Fall to Your Death

And Choose Love Above All Else

And Learn to Listen

You Unlock This Ending

The Train ride Home was Lovely and Restful

I probably slept more than half the time

And was at last able to Recover from what Food Poisoning had Ailed me

And had plenty of Time and Peace to Express some of my backed up Thoughts and Emotions too

Oh How I Love the Train

Definitely my Second favorite Mode of Travel!

I don't think I've ever been this Emotionally Exhausted in my Life

Physically I'm fine though haha if a bit Sore

So Despite how much I Love and have Missed My Room My Bed My Dog

I headed out after a couple days of Rest and Prep

There is a Place I Need to Be

From I-91 Southbound you get off Exit 6
(If Northbound Exit )


When you reach the stop sign from the exit ramp take a Right
If there's someone there Be Sure to stop and Give something they Need
Food, hand warmers, gloves, plastic poncho, etc.

Folk are camped out in the Woods nearby here

No one ever used to be...

Take a Right onto Mitchell Drive when you get to East Rock School

I almost attended this School

But I won some lottery and got to go to Worthington Hooker instead

OR You can go Straight here and stop in at Archie Moore's!
Best Wings in the State!

Either way

Take a Right onto Orange Street

And No I didn't Name the Roads

Drive Straight to the end and Standing Directly before You is
East Rock

Take a Right onto English

Enjoy the Windy Scenic Road

There are many Hidden Treasures for those on Foot

Magical Beautiful Places that those who Do Not Step out of their Cars will Never See or Experience

Now You are Entering The Woods of My Childhood

This was my back yard as a Child

I Grew Up Exploring this area

Back then

I knew these Woods like the Back of My Hand

This is Rice Field

We lived on the second floor of the White House in the Distance
Drive until you go around a curve and this comes into view

Then Park anywhere

Turn around and walk back to the curve here

That's The Trail there.

Map in Case You're Lost

Follow the Trail Straight until You come to this Fork

Take a Left and climb the Stairs

Keep on Climbin'

Until You at Last Arrive to the Feet of...

The Giant Steps

Though not so Giant compared to the Colorado Rocky Mountains I was Just Exploring

When I was a Child

This was My Mountain

I paused a moment here to Pray and Give Thanks for My Life

My Journey

My Path

And The Me that has Been Created from Everything

No Words can express The Beauty
All I could do was Feel and Cry

I Hope You Enjoy Your Ascent As Well

Like an Old Friend Cheering Me On

I stood in my corner

with No one at all

Never Having

Time for them all

Figured I'd Stay Here

'til My Great Fall

See who shows up

Or at least Gives a Call

I long and I worry

But got No where to Go

Pushin' myself to the limit

yet got nothin' to show

What'm I doin' wrong?

I don't even know

Hope I've at least proven

That I'll Never Let You Go

Every Night Hear Me Prayin'

Lord, Deliver Me from My Woe

How long will it be

'til You Give Me My Co

You locked The Door

And took away my key

I'm trying to earn it back

Oh why can't You See

My Desire for Sisters in Life

Is what set Me Free

Along with my simple ambition

To pursue and accomplish My Dream

Must I Give it All?

My Love, My Life, My Knee

Before You leave Me in The Cold

At least Know what We could Be

Why should My Virtue

At All Interfere

With the Love I Have to Give

And the Life I Want to Build around that

What is so unacceptable about My Way?
What is so Offensive about my Expression?

When one is left alone in Darkness

It is a place of Bitterness

I Figured out

How to Protect My Love and Care

In that space

Forgiveness

No Expectations nor Demands

Commit to the Struggle

As far as I Need to Go

So I Will Honor My Love

So I can Love as Unconditionally as Possible

So I can BE Who I Want to BE

So I can Give to the One I Love

So I can Be Free

So I'm carrying that

Through this space I've been placed in

I REFUSE to Lose this Love

I REFUSE to Fall

I KNOW I can Help a Woman I Love

I WILL NOT allow anything to change My Path.

I Will Wait.

I Will Fight.

I Will Pray.

I Will Cry.

I Will Carry this Love.

What could be more important than this?

One can See this Tower from just about anywhere in the City/vicinity

To Me it is a Beacon

A Symbol of Home and Safety

A Bastion

There's a Lovely Field and Park area up here too

Once Upon a Time

I was going to Get Married Here

There's the other Half in the Distance

West Rock

Millennia ago they were One

But an Iceberg and Tectonic Plate movements split them in Two and moved them apart

That's Southern Connecticut State University just underneath

Where I studied to be an Elementary Educator

The most Joyous Years of My Life

Thanks to My Former Fiancee

She Saved Me from my Self for many Years

We Existed quite Happily in our little Turtle Shell Together

It was Safe and Comfortable in there but there was No Growth

In Those Days I had yet to even Explore the Downtown area of my Own City

We Both began to slowly come out of Our Shell and Separate at The Same Time

Going Down Different Paths as We Discovered other Worlds and our Ability to interact with them

I had always been more of an introverted recluse

Scared of People and The World

And The Demons therein

Content with my Digital Adventures and Illusionary Graphic Love

Though it was only Light on a Screen

Shining onto my Eyes

It Felt Real

And those years in My Room
Saving Fictional Worlds and Loving Girls that Don't Exist

Helped Craft Me into Who I Am

Someone who is Trying to Save the Real World

And Loves Girls that most Definitely Exist

I taught Elementary Science for Just a couple Years before I began to Understand My Morality

My Youth would soon Fade

As it shall for us All

And there were So So many things I Still Wanted to Experience

So So many things I Still Wanted to See

So So many things I Still Wanted to BE

I Realized if I didn't Go for it Soon

A Bicycle Ride from Coast to Coast

Then it'd likely Never Come to Be

There's not much more I Want now

Than to Just have my Sisters in My Life

Protect and Guide them along their Path

Create Art and Music and Food and Love

And Go On Splendid Adventures Together

I Am At Last Who I Want to Be

Now I Want

No

I NEED
To Be Me with the People that I Hold Dear to Me

I Need to Complete My Journey too

But without My Sisters' Love and Support

I don't know if I even Can

So This is Where I'll Be

I'm going to Walk Right Back Here after I Click Publish

And I'm going to Wait Here in The Cold All Day All Night

I'm not gonna bring any Food or Water

Just some Warm Weather Gear and a couple things for a Fire

And Journal and Pens and a Book

And I'm going to Wait Here for You.

I Believe in You.

Come Christmas Day I Hope to Be with My Family

And Just like You Have in Years Past

I Believe You'll Bring Me to Them.
