I told Jericho to remember my name and that the walls came tumbling down. I asked if she read the words from the prior post or if it was just coincidence that she visited the kingdom. Nodded my head and said both are possible.
Some people don’t want to give false hope but sense when others are preparing to draw lines in the sand because that is how it has always been.
The magic always rises when it is unexpected and unseen.
Got a big meeting at 1 and a question about when the rain may fall as the roads may ice and this place isn’t prepared for that kind of weather.
The drivers are bad under good circumstances and give them a little thing like ice to contend with and you know some will choose to pretend there is no impact upon their limited skills.
This time last week I was cruising down the 405 towards the grand city of Long Beach not to visit the Queen Mary or see old friends but to take care of other business.
The next day I picked up my middle sister at the airport and headed the other direction. We swung by the old neighborhood and stared at the man who lives in the house we grew up in.
Drove down streets that raised me and watched the ghosts of who I was rattle their chains and wave at me. Saw some neighbors do a double take when they saw my face and realize I was back.
Hit a few more meetings and then raced back to the airport to return to the place I currently call home. People ask if it is forever or for a short time and I shrug my shoulders.
Maybe yes, maybe no.
Have to see what the morrow brings.
How Much Time Do We Get?
Been thinking about question from yesterday and how to better focus building the life I want to live for however long I get.
It is an important question and I don’t think people take it seriously enough. Well, maybe some do but I am not convinced most think about it.
Maybe they shouldn’t. Maybe I am crazy or maybe I can power the house if it loses power. Hell, I know if some of you took my hand you’d feel that kind of charge but I won’t say more because this is a family blog and I am shy.
And now we take a Led Zeppelin break.
Time to hit one of my favorite parts
It’s been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Oh seems so long since we walked in the moonlight
Making vows that just can’t work right, oh yeah
Open your arms, opens your arms
Open your arms, baby, let love come running in, yeah
It’s been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
If you can’t get up for this song you’re missing out.
Some days I hear bells ringing and the tick-tock and wonder if someone is trying to tell me to get a move on or if it is just in my mind.
Don’t know, don’t care where it is coming from because the bottom line is the same. Got to do more than just think and create an idea of the life we want to live.
We have to take action.
Knock the walls down. Go under. Go over. Go around. Take action.
