Suddenly it is very warm and beautiful. It seems like we have gone from winter straight into summer. I would like some chilly and sunny spring. I think I am out of luck. I am increasingly sad to think how much all the children in my life have grown up. Good thing I have a grandson. It is such a reminder of new life and renewal. I think that kind of thought is important in a world that seems obsessed with things that seem limiting and competitive.
It is good to think that there can be a kind of renewal for those of us who didn't die young(not that we are old). I guess we have to find our joy in the dreams of our new ones, like Jasper(who has not communicated them totally, but I believe his dreams include having his own computer and being just like his daddy.)
I think it is really good to think of what I am grateful for before I just stop noticing how lucky I am. there are so many people I love. I hope they know how much they mean to me. I wonder if I express my joy in knowing them enough. Who really knows? Maybe love is something that travels to people without words needing to be spoken. Anyway, I love you guys.
