Memories Again

 

Theresa and her mother Marion in 2006.

Years ago, in 2006, my late wife, mother-in-law, father-in-law, and Neil took a trip to Prince Edward Island to visit her mother's sister Bernice. 

Theresa was especially angry at her cousin at that time, for drinking. 

Those painful memories pop up every now and then. They are all dead now. As the lone survivor with kitty, it seems strange to think how quickly time flies since 2006. Has it been 19 years? Really?

Life wasn't easy, but we had each other's back. I was 36 years old back then. Wow. Instead of re-hashing old wrongs, I'll concentrate on the good memories. The joyful ones. When God gives you challenges, you have to meet them. Taking care of my late wife was one of them.

I have zero interest in money, cars, or luxury. Yet my new web site focuses on aspects of these items. I'm fine with that. Giving the illusion of wanting but in reality, needing nothing. 

My life has been very good, and although I've had some setbacks, I'm hopeful it will continue in the right direction. 

I've always believed in God. I don't need to go to church to know I'm devout. What really matters is being a good person. I really hope to be the best person I can be. 

Time has a way of tricking you. It couldn't have been 19 years ago, but it really ways.

Instead of buying myself in drugs and alcohol, I've gone into the opposite direction. I rarely drink, and consume no drugs. The clarity you get from being just yourself is incredibly refreshing.

I'm hopeful for the best.
