Today is a tough day for me.
I’m having a hard time toning down seeing
the things about you that are amazing and magnificent
and accepting that we do not share that vision.
It’s always been a struggle.
My Life’s work… my mission… has been to somehow
put into words what I see in you;
the beauty of a Being created beyond belief; literally.… —-> Continue…
If there were an evil force in this world,
it’s best line of attack wouldn’t be a
full frontal assault, but rather a series

Last week I’m at the store walking
around an aisle when all of a sudden,
a line from a movie pops in my head;
“I see dead people,

Sometimes it takes a tragedy to cause us
to take hold of our lives and create triumph.
From the rumble of toppled buildings

Then again, it usually is – and that’s

So much to say – and so much in the way…
If it weren’t for that nail, tonight would be just another
missed opportunity to talk with you.… —-> Continue…
