Ethereal

As I sit in the hospital bed for my routine scope of my esophagus I thought I might start to process the chaotic beautiful experience that was "Mom's Run Amok".

• Good lesson to learn - it doesn't matter how good or bad you feel today you have no idea what you are going to feel like tomorrow.
•  don't know whether this is just me or human nature but when I was younger I focused on finding the joy in big items such as birthdays, parties, big milestone events while often overlooking  all the joy in the small things.
• The older I get the more I realize once you've been broken down enough that you can see the joy in all of the little things.  By filling your cup with the little joys when a big joy comes along it hits like an explosion.  There is a parallel here and it is on point with what Winston wrote to remember in his poem to Andrew years ago.  Someday down the road, remember to set down your heavy load and I hope you understand that the bad was good and the good with grand.
