I’m in one of those moods, spent my second day with a little one who’s just past his first 100 Holy Days. Splendid little chap. Those eyes! I met his big brother at two weeks old when his eyes were first focusing and it was very cool watching them learn more every day. How could I tell, from watching him, his eye movements, his focus, his facial expressing, and more signals, a few of who I couldn’t even describe - telepathy
But here I’m holding this little one for the first times and between everything else, there are those times when he’s intently studying my face. How could I tell, from watching him, his eye movements, his focus, his facial expressing, and more signals, a few of who I couldn’t even describe - telepathy
Then there’s lil B, 2 1/2 yrs, working parents, so he’s going to ‘school’ already, sure as heck better not call it Day Care - because it treated as a structure class. {It must be a horror for the little fella?} Well hells bells that’s the thing, he comes home after a full day, and says he had a good time and in the morning he’s ready to go back with a smile on his face and lets hang with my pals.
Half a year since I’ve seen him, figure he’d barely remember me. But I bet it’s a little like riding a bike, once we gain a genuine mutual bond based on love - it doesn’t matter how long the separation, after the first peddle or two, it all comes rushing back.
This is the stuff that sustains me within this world of increasing horrors and wanton belligerent ignorance driven to destroy rather than mend and nurture all that’s good about living on this Earth.
If I were to dwell on the futures these youngster have ahead of me, my body would spontaneously combust. Today is what matters, tomorrow will come soon enough, one thing for sure, if you want a decent tomorrow, you sure as hell better focus on living your todays to their best.
Tomorrow is full of wild cards. Horror will unfold, some as it goes with evolution, some places, some people, will be presented with a chance and challenges today insanity can’t get close to offer anyone anywhere.
