there is never enough time...

at least in my world there isn't... yet what are we rushing around for... where are we going exactly ~ that's a frustration for another day i guess... and i will come back to it 'cause we all need to stop and spend some time taking care of each other i think...

anyway ~ so somehow i made it through those 9-12 weeks ~ see i don't even really know how long it was... i do remember the first time that the phone rang... so much tried to come out all at once that it all got stuck and not much made it's way out at all

anyway ~ i gotta get that island that i'm gonna take everyone that i love too soon so we can just be... 'cause it's already been a week... there wasn't enough time... now there is only one left and this one will be spent at the other end of the state with others that have pride to express and times to share...

but there was friday night... where we stood together and it was perfect... watching everyone and being in our space where we were able to revel in all that being there together meant... where we once were... how far we've come... how grateful we were for the ears... shoulders... and hands that helped us along the way... at that time in that moment... pride was not at all a sin

it was indeed the best investment i've ever made... i'm honored to be on the short list... stay true...
