Inside but somehow outside of yourself.
Staring through the open sliding glass doors at a glorious sun illuminating the water dripping from the trees, I'm just thinking.
There are no words ... just thoughts and emotions.
I'm focused on people I love.
Sarah tells me I love everybody, meaning it critically and as a warning. You're not supposed to love everybody because they screw you in the end and that's true of lots of people.
And I've certainly been screwed ... and it hurt ... and they left not giving a damn ... blaming me somehow ... and those I thought cared didn't ... and I was shocked at who did!
But the truth of the matter is I'm a Daydream believer.
I imagine and don't think I'm the only one.
I'm a fool, for Christ's sake, but there's wisdom in there somewhere if we really are Daydream believers, meaning we're honored and dishonored in life.
I've certainly been both.
But that's life! It's what you do with it that matters most.
God made life, gave it to us and now it's ours to do with what we want.
Or to not do anything with it.
Sarah's away visiting her parents in New York so everything is a bit out of sorts. The dogs understand somehow because they follow me closely whenever I move. The house is too quiet. It's just a house when she's not here. I'll be glad when she gets home though I'm glad she and the girls are having a good time.
Johnny O interrupts these thoughts with a barrage of text messages. He's asking about my son Jeremy though it quickly dissolves into really bad humor that has me roaring in laughter.
Ah, it's a good day to do good things, as my friend Dicky Trotter says.
I'm going to enjoy it.
I hope you enjoy yours too.
