I believe I’ve learned more about Trust in the last couple of years than in all my many years prior put together. I’ve learned who I can trust, and have learned who I can’t. I’ve learned that you can’t always trust the people who are supposed to be there to help you through hard times. I’ve learned that, sometimes, the ones you didn’t think you’d be able to trust turn out to be the most reliable.
However, more than anything else, the ones who’ve taught me the most about Trust have been animals.
A poem, dedicated to Serenity, RAOKA’s theme for May ’10
I’ll be with you in apple blossom time
I’ll be with you to change your name to mine
May 8th. My parents would have been married 66 years on this day. From my earliest memories, they always cherished the song “Apple Blossom Time” as “their song”. I can’t hear it, or think of it, without my heart going warm and tender, filled with both joy and sorrow.
“Family” is not necessarily about blood. It’s about people (both human and otherwise) who are there for you to share the laughter, and still there to soak up the tears. Family give from the heart. Family have your back. Family are the ones you’d gladly lay down your life for, and never doubt for a moment that it’s the right thing to do.
So, as you walk forth each day, strive to build laughter-laden memories. The more we laugh at what is behind us, the more there will be to laugh about ahead. The higher our spirits lift while we walk this earth, the farther they will soar when we leave it.
Judith Simpson was one of the earth’s finest human beings. She and I were friends for many years. Lord, I think it must have been 1994 when we first met on the internet, became friends through Saluki-L, and began to share our common loves. When word came through from our mutual good friend, Willie Towles, yesterday, that Judy had passed away, my heart just crumbled to pieces.
I was angry this morning. This post planned to be a vent, a warning to others, and a way to express the hurt, the anger, the upset I’ve been feeling since my father died on February 26th.
And then, just before I opened my site to write the post, I checked my TUT Thought from the Universe for this morning, and found the above. Once again the Universe found a way to smack me upside the head and tell me to think clearly.

Just who was this St Valentine, anyway?
Anyone who’s followed my various ramblings for any length of time will know that I was most pleased to see the theme for January. Gratitude is a pet favorite topic of mine, and an attitude (I love that Attitude rhymes with Gratitude, I mean, how perfectly serendipitous is that? Serendipity is one of my favorite words, too, and … Um, I digress….) I consciously strive to maintain.
