Richard (Rick) Dean Fisher looks at a love beyond this life in "The Other Side"

Richard (Rick) Dean Fisher's "The Other Side" explores the power of love that will not die in this deeply emotional story of soulmates whose connection is complicated by circumstance. The song is about two people who fall deeply in love, only to find that one has already made commitments to a life of love with another. Richard (Rick) Dean Fisher doesn't make things easy with a romantic resolution she offers a harder kind of devotion one shaped by commitment, longing, and hope for a future beyond this life.

The emotional tension is located in a link that feels deep but can't be easily followed without penalty. Love can change how we see everything, but emotions don't erase the commitments and obligations that already exist. "The Other Side" explores this difficult reality by placing its soulmates in a position where love and commitment pull them in opposite directions. The story has its particular weight in the choice not to end an existing relationship. The character believes that, rather than choosing one person and leaving the other, the bond with their soulmate can exist in another form.

In "The Other Side," Richard (Rick) Dean Fisher tells a story of commitment that goes beyond instant gratification. Love is still meaningful even when life doesn't give them the ending they might have wanted, as the promise of eternity becomes their hope. It is a meditation on the difficult choices that love can force us to make and the possibility that some ties are believed to extend beyond the boundaries of one lifetime.
