A Sappy Musing


I suppose some of you may have heard of the blog "The Trad",written by Tin-Tin. I don't always agree with(maybe understand would be the right word here) what he says, but he sure knows how to say it. I'm telling you this to give him credit for a phrase I'm going to steal. "Before you run out of time to live". This thought is very pragmatic. No flowers or cliches,just a straight up fact. Like all facts, it is what you do with it that matters. I plan on going along as I always have, because I sort of like what I'm doing. In the photo above is Gabe and my Immortal Beloved( I stole another phrase!)He's her boy and he just adores her. I smile and chuckle whenever I look at it. I guess my point is don't feel that you have not done much with the time you have used.There is no need to hurry your life along,just enjoy it as it comes at you. Sappy I know, but a lot of life is just that,sappy.

Thank you all for your kind words, they helped.

I just want to let those of you who offered your thoughts and prayers for my sister Rena White know that she passed peacefully this past Wednesday. It was a long battle with breast cancer. It is hard to understand why. If you can please try to support the research for this horrible disease. And for those you love get checked.
