So little time left. Could be over tomorrow. For one of us. The human condition—a beginning and an end. . .here.
Ours is the morning. Thanks for the sunlight.
I remember that day.
During life’s seasons, I didn’t have a desire to write. Without passion, no written words were produced. Didn’t see much money it. (Still don’t). Had to support a family. (Now just grandbaby sitter). Didn’t have much new to say. (Might argue, still don’t).Playing cornerback on the New York Jets, pushing all-in on a high stakes poker pot, or being elected Mayor of New York City, were all on a once young man’s bucket list. (None crossed off). Life’s winter has arrived. In cyberspace, I chew slices of pepperoni pizza, swallow and spit out words. My past experiences (or someone else’s), dreams, and other thoughts you will read in a story, book, essay or poem created by me.When we run out of fuel and the electrical power ceases forever, all websites (including this one) will have a beginning and a final end.

Thanks Youngest Daughter of Daughters.
You and Stas have created a beautiful child–Vivian Grace.
I’m teaching her how to change her own diapers right now.
She will be very independent, kind, and smart like her parents.
Her story is yet to be told. “Good Job, Rachel.”
