The Best Thursday of All Time and The Best Day Ever

February 27th 2014 is a great day. My best day.

I have not felt fear, not real visceral fear, since I cannot remember. Maybe when I was in grade school.

Details don't matter and it's not for discussion, but a new lease on life was granted today. The most important person in my life since, well, all time, is fine and my best friend is ok.

Yes, my wife. My love. My passion and belief.
Have a good night.

  1. Sounds frightening, but great to hear everything is ok.

  2. Come my love and we shall wander
    All of life to see and know
    In the Season's lostward rambling
    All things come and all things go

    We'll climb up the snowy mountains
    Sail across the rolling sea
    We shall live for one another
    I for you and you for me

    We'll go down to green grass meadows
    Where the cold winds never blow
    If we taste the wine of loving
    Only you and I shall know

    Come my love and we shall wander
    Just to see what we can find
    If we only find each other
    Still the journey's worth the time

    Love is like a star of heaven
    Burning in the endless sky
    When it falls it bursts asunder
    As it lives so shall it die

    --Mason Williams

    Give my best to your wife.

  3. Jake,
    yes, I had not slept nor really breathed until last night. Never felt so scared and alone.

    Gawains,
    no words, what a wonderful poem. Many thanks.

  4. Well, I thought you needed it.

    Mason Williams used to write for the Somther's Brothers, you know.

    His only book of poetry, The Mason Williams Reading Matter, was the first book of poetry I ever read. He's different.

    I thought you might need some reading matter, as Dylan Thomas is so depressing.

    But, hey, give my best to your wife. Just understand that the journey you two took was to find each other, and that is all that matters.

    Much love, and peace. I wish you, the two of you, all the best.
