World's End

The world as we knew it is gone. So how do we live now?
.
A person I know told their spouse today that they wanted a divorce. It was their anniversary. What kind of person does such a thing?
.
What did you give up for Lent?
.
Pizza tomorrow night with some of my favorite people.

Ever wonder what you would tell people if you knew you were dying and only could write things?  Who would you write? What would you say? Would you decide to tell people things you never were brave enough to share in person, or would you let everyone live on without the burden of knowing the ignorance they carried while you were still here? I wonder who you would tell secrets and with whom you would make things right? What confessions would you make or what encouragement would you leave? Who would find out that you wished you would have said the words "l love you and I always have"? What would you leave as your memory?

The fence on the side of my house is falling down which pulls the gates post too far away for the gate to latch properly. The wind tries to escape from the yard so the gate flaps back and forth against the latch in the wind and disturbs my sleep.
.
There are a million memories and things I've dreamed of to say, but nothing ever came of those things, and I put them away.
.
Admitting you gave up for lack of encouragement is a bittersweet feeling.  Happy because you almost perhaps had the chance, and sad because you know now it will never happen because you got tired of struggling.

The kids are having a blast on spring break. I envy them.  They play much better now than they did when they arrived. However, in order to really develop properly, they desperately need some open fields and ponds and trees and woods in which to play on a regular basis. Maybe someday.
