Dream Away!

You have to dream it before you can get it. What are your dreams? I get so lost in mine sometimes, I feel like I am living it. Those are the ones that usually come true for me. Don't hold back. Anything is fair game in your dreams.

Who wants to be happy forever?

As 2020 ends in a few hours I wanted to share my feelings. If you turn on pretty much any news on TV or web pages you will see that 2020 is all gloom and doom. I don’t see it that way. At least not today in this moment. I went through a lot this year. I started out in a temporary place to live for a few months while legal proceedings were ongoing. Once those ended, I could get money from the house that I was co-owner of and able to find a more permanent place to call home. I didn’t know where that was going to be as I didn’t know what I would be able to afford. Then the pandemic hit. Suddenly, I lost all in person contact with everyone until the world could figure out what was happening. Then zoom meetings started to make me feel better as I was able to at least see who I was communicating with. They all said by June it should all be over. Yeah, right. OK, you know how it went from there, I don’t have to remind you. As the year went on, I finally settled my personal lega...

My Annual Day of Remembrance

April 6, 1980. It was Easter that year. I was in Atlanta, Georgia visiting my cousin on my way to Tampa, Fl where my cousin and I were going to meet up with another cousin and enjoy a week of spring break. I was 24 years old. The night before my cousin and I had went out on the town and had a good time. Because of that we slept in later than we had planned. We planned to get up early, go to the first Mass and then head to Florida. Somewhere around 7:30 or 8:00 AM I heard the phone ring (no cell phones in those days). I heard my cousin answer it and then he came into the room where I was sleeping and before he said a word an eerie feeling came over me. It was for me. It was my younger brother, Shawn. He said the words I had feared my entire life, "Dad just died." My father had suffered from Melanoma for over two years. Before that, we had the perfect family. Not even a trip to an emergency room for anyone for even stitches with a family of 7 boys and a girl. Beating on e...

Know Who Your Real Friends Are

Many people have come into my life. Some just for a short moment and others I have known for years. If I had to pick who would drop everything and come to my aid if I needed help, I would have to say I could count those friends on one hand. Obviously I disqualified many because of the distance from where I am to where they are. If distance wasn't a factor the list would be much higher. The point I am making is I cherish the good friends who I have. Sometimes we go weeks without talking but they are always on my mind. The reason is at some point in our lives we just clicked. Either it was our personalities were compatible or one of us helped the other and that created a bond. In any case the common denominator in all of my friends is honesty. My friends aren't afraid to tell me the truth. Because of that there is a comfort unlike I have with most aquaintances. No matter what happens in life I feel great becuase of the friendship I have with some good people. Surround...
