I want to tell everyone that I do so appreciate you. From the time I started writing until this very post I have always been one hundred percent sincere. It stands on its own. Yet I am going to have to take a hiatus, and I don't know just how long. I've thought about it a lot and I do think the essay, Desiderata, just about says it all. If I have to leave you with something that every single time I read it... it resonates. As Randy said, If everyone TRIED to follow this set of principles, the world would be a greater place. I couldn't agree more. I wish everyone nothing but good things. This site will continue to exist, and you never know.. I might be back next week... writing has always been just such therapy for me. Yet I have to do this. So, please if you haven't google DESIDERATA. It starts with "Go Placidly Admidst the Noise and Haste......." God Bless You. Thank you. See you down the road.

Desiderata
It is scary when you have typed just enough blog entries that you start worrying if you are repeating yourself! That's hilarious. (to me). This is my whole intent. If you have not read "Desiderata", (google) a nice little essay about living, I highly recommend it. So That's all!

Best Snow In Years
I logged in here, and read my last post. Cringed. Then smiled, and went back up here to go at it again. Trying to hit some different themes! I think I well nailed the theme I've been continuing for months! I'm so grateful my sense of humor is back. It comes in little things, such as now when I crack myself up. Noone else laughing, but it sure is good for you- deep thing in soul I hope you know and understand!
I know some of you are from different places, so this winter's snowfall may or may not be something you recognize as a big deal. Around here, it just hasn't snowed like that in years. years! So it was fun. Snow for me brings back the kid. I like and love and miss the kid. Snow will do it. Time goes slower, and it may just be me but the memory stands out so good that you can look back on it almost forever. I have every great snow we ever had crystallized by one or two really good memories.
Something about the way it makes people stay where they are. If you are out and about, I love the fact that you are alone on the road. Not only because the road that you are driving is hazardous, but also people fear it is worse than it is. I like everything slowed down, and I remember that day just like yesterday. I have been keeping a truck for ohhhhhh. five years now? Don't know what made me do it the first time, but when I got that first truck with four wheel drive I had never known the power you have there. Like an animal, that vehicle as well as my next truck will dig for ground! I love that, and there is no better feeling in the world than to drive atop a snow COVERED road and not hardly slip and rarely turn complete circles-- ha -- at all! Like I said, it brings back the kid, and I miss the kid.
That should have been the title. Bring Back The Kid. I will ponder and get back to you on that. yeah. I'm out of here. Paul
