Wanted: Experienced Safecracker
















Turn to the right three times stop on 27, back counter-clock wise two turns stop on 39, back again to the right, stop on 3, turn handle to open...........

Simple instructions, but obviously the wrong combination, the safe is still locked. Once again, to the right, back to the left, right again stopping on 3, crank the handle, still nothing, the safe is still locked, its job of safekeeping still intact. Angrily, I twist the dial hard. Why, for what, I know it isn't going to make it open, but for a millisecond the anger is dissipated. The tumblers inside the lock still turn with ease and with the right combination of turns and twist and numbers will fall one after the other in sequence, each one relinquishing its hold of what was entrusted and the door will open..... my heart will be free to love again.

There is a keyhole under that Yale plate on the knob of the dial. The key is next to the back left wheel of the safe. Unlock it with just one quick turn and let your heart bleed your love.

Well, maybe you are just not ready yet, there is nothing wrong with giving yourself a little more time.

That combination, do you have it within you somewhere? I think it will work when you're ready. I hope so anyway!
