Life is the mainstream that carries us where we are supposed to be though we may be frantically swimming in the other direction.
Sometimes we achieve goals of more importance without realizing how insignificant our original ones were.
Sometimes no matter what we achieve, there is a small sadness for those dreams that never touched earth.
You have lived somewhere between famous and infamous. I have lived contentedly in your shadow. We have worked together to raise our children and shed some light on our grandkids lives.
You have wanted many things: to be, to do, to see, to win, to possess.
You have a great capacity for joy in the present without letting go of your dreams.
Let us continue on together with fewer responsibilities, the same hope, deeper love and brighter dreams.
