A Pocket of Comfort

When the world gets a bit too much for me, I slip into a pocket of time which I create with Felicity, Dawson’s Creek or anything that will bring me back to those days. In that pocket, I almost feel that he is just round the corner.

So that day, I slotted the first disc of Felicity Season 2 into the dvd player. There she was, back in New York and her “Dear Sally” tapes, back to having to choose between Noel and Ben. I am all for her and Noel, because he is steady, capable, mad about her, cute, and he reminds me of him.

There, within the first 15 minutes, Felicity was in the show making the same mistake I had made, which I will forever be paying for: ``I know how it is going to be like with Noel, but with Ben, I don’t.’’

Too many “could have been”, I am just grateful to have this pocket.
