My hero for the day!

I found my hero for the day.

And this is how it happened.
I’m standing in a store and
this guy comes in and he’s
looking for something.
I don’t even know what it
was or if he found it,
but before he left has asked
of everyone present:
“Do you know anyone
with a house for rent?”

Those present did not,
and then he asked;
“Do you have any newspapers here?”
He was informed they did not sell newspapers there.… —-> Continue…

Are you STILL waiting?

Earlier this afternoon I heard these
words come out of the radio:

“Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance…”

I had to grab a pen & paper and

It’s dark out and I’m driving with my
son across the 205 bridge from
Portland to Vancouver. Actually,
I’m doing all the driving – his legs
are too short to reach the pedals

All of a sudden the car stalls
and the engine stops.… —-> Continue…

Are you STILL laying on the nail?

howler-350w
It’s hard to know where to begin.
Then again, it usually is – and that’s
the very reason I’m stopped so
many times from writing you.

So much to say – and so much in the way…

missed opportunity to talk with you.… —-> Continue…
