I'm Baaaacckkkk!

After a long hiatus, I've decided I need to get back to writing. I spent some time this evening talking to a good friend and former sister-in-law. She was very young when I was in the family. Amazing how she has matured into a lovely woman. We have a lot in common. I never realized that until tonight.

I have had a lot of people from past years come into my life as of late. Sometims I wonder if that's a sign that I'm coming to the end. I hope not, but if so, it's OK too. I have had the opportunity to apologize to some people that I needed to apologize to. For that I am most grateful. No hard feelings on either side any more.

I have reconnected with childhood friends. I have found that the friends I made as a child have been lasting frienships. Even though I hadn't had contact with many of them in over 3o years, it seems as though we've been able to pick up where we left off. That is just amazing to me. It hasn't been an awkward reconnection as I would have imagined. Wow!! We just caught up on as much as each cared to share and are moving on from there.

And new friends too. Some I've met through my exposure to the blues music life I am so happy living now. And some are younger - friends of my son. But they are all such wonderful, positive people.

No man is an island. And with all the friendships I've rekindled and made recently, I'm not even a peninsula!
