"I'd rather be haunted by
memories than by what if's."
~Ariana
Indeed, I thank the gods for
the fact that I've lived plenty
rather than simply existed . . .
So honor that I ran away from
home at the end of 9th grade
and went to the academy!
From there . . .
I count those wondrous 20
years in Mexico, the birth of
the most amazing children
that could have ever existed,
and 17 years of teaching in
Spanish.
I so loved the subsequent 23
years of teaching in a low-econ
community here in the U.S.
It's been interesting living in a
135 year old cabin in my elder
years. Praise the gods that my
lover is in the know, as it were,
of all things wrong, WRONG,
W R O N G ! There is naught
that he can't fix; make no
mistake!
No one can have any idea . . .
the work, tasks, wrongs, this
man has had to fix in this ancient
cabin . . . oh my God!
We're talking perfection here!
"Memories are Made of This"
~Terry Gilkyson, Richard de Dehr,
Frank Miller, 1955
