It was a fun night celebrated with friends
that brought me to downtown Portland.
That’s the Oregon one
(pronouned Or-ree-gahn by the out of towners) -
not the one in Maine on the OTHER coast.
It was on the walk back to the car that I saw it.… —-> Continue…
Sometimes it takes a tragedy to cause us
to take hold of our lives and create triumph.
From the rumble of toppled buildings
to crushed & shattered dreams and hopes;
where we go from here all starts at a beginning.
