Ready to come home

It's been a good week; I've been able to get a lot of things done. I'm ready to come home, though. I miss my family. Dad is teaching me a lot. It is always humbling to stay with someone who is weak. I see myself trying to avoid it. This morning I was watching the funeral of a pope while sitting with an old man who can't understand what is going on. Age is scary. Not being in control is scary (as if I am in control - I just enjoy the illusion). But I can learn lots from those who are weak, as much as it's not comfortable. One day that old man may be me. (I keep threatening my children, anyway). Can't wait to get home.

thank god he can still remember you at this time, and know who you really are..... that is why he is always teaching you.... cause life is always full of lessons to learn so that oneday when your kids are grown up you can pass it to them from one generation to the next and be extremely proud of it - just like any parent would be..... i know....cause it has already been passed on to me and my little brother...... you're absolutely right - you will be like that one day..... being an old man i mean - just like your dad.... just be prepared for it....it will happen to everyone oneday - that is the living truth and the reality of it......no one had ever said that life would be easy..... believe me, i know from many experiences that i had.....cause i already have been there and done all.... way before my time.....
