Life Changes

There has been three balloons in this quiet spot of my lodge that from time to time rustle about and startle me very good and proper. Once I know it scared me so bad that something changed in my cellular structure. One of these three has deflated and rests on my sewing table. Two remain and having said that I've decided to let them be. These are from when we celebrated my Brides birthday back on 20 March. What, is helium made differently than when I was a child? There is no comparrison in my eye's. I mean, I see these two here. The changes I can not imagine.

I may not have known this before, but there is something that resonates within my Spirit's that lets me know that I am a Blessed man. I am still young, my bride and I have been married for thirty-two years and I have the two most fabulous daughters on Mother Earth. It is un-necessary for me to comment on the trails and tribulations of our younger years - it would serve no purpose, and besides, I can't go back and change a thing. Life's Changes. Today, what I can say is that I love my Bride with all my heart and that she is "the" one and only, and is my very best good friend forever. More than my mate, she is my Nurse, my Doctor, and I love our Life together.

I felt a desire to tippy-tap a spell. Sort of warming up before the ball game. You name it. I'll wish that I could play it. Football from here, Soccer from around the globe, Baseball, Basketball, Softball, and or Kickball, even. So many changes. I just wish I could run and run, run until it takes my breathe away. I miss team sport activities. I miss public inter-action. I miss listening to the voices of other lands...

...I miss the voices of Kinfolk past. Sadly enough, we just don't know how much a Mom's voice means to us untill Mom has gone away. Or the sound of my Aunt Bunny's voice who just recently crossed over. Not a day goes by that I have not thought of my cousins, Aunt Bunny's children. My dear cousins. I won't name them out of respect to their privacy. Please, know that I love you all and all ways have. Oh, so it has been, so many Life changes.

Life changes when a baby is born. All and everything changes, you see. Life changes when a parent out lives a child and life changes when Mommy goes to Heavan. I know this to be true because my Mom passed across in 2004. Three years after her son, my Kid Brother died. Two years prior to my Dad leaving to rejoin Ma and Dave and all of them who have passed before me...

...I saw what my brothers death did to Mom and Dad. Their life was never the same after finding Dave asleep in his bedroom. Forever changed. My Grandmother Mary, experianced this when her son, my Dad passed. I know that my Aunt Bunny and Papa experianced the same thing. It's just not right. It seems ass backwards in my mind. Life changes.

The State of My State of The Union will be posted later on today.

For now, I've said enough.
