Is your fellow man working with you or against you these days? You see it comes in the goals. When things are bad men work together. When they’re good they snub their nose up at one another. Welcome to God’s world.

All the losses, all the conflicts -like an aged athlete, only later in life can we begin to feel the total effect of what we’ve been through. What we put ourselves through. And in this case, what we put others thru!

When I think about the happiest times in my life I think of Ana. I don’t think about trips to Europe, sailing on the high seas, climbing Everest together like others might perhaps. I think about our trips to the thrift stores. To the Great American Land and Cattle Company for a wonderful lunch and laughter. The $2 movie and popcorn with extra butter and Milk Duds. Hard time on the beach at Russian river back in 2015 -where the river met the ocean. A dream of mine for 40 some years and with a person I love more than any other in my life.

I won’t be accepting any more consolations!
