Father John interview

Disneyland Magic Happens performer
Looks like Joy to me. Disneyland Magic Happens parade performer – supporting Coco float.

Why Father John initiated a 30-minute video recorded interview with me is mysterious.

Did he read Mid Life Celebration?

Will ride a bicycle to Holy Family Church for today’s 10:30AM interview.

Will pray every step (pedal) of the way, like everyday.

i wish it would happen sooner.

While we both wait, i will find solace in quiet moments with our creator.

Note: Our relationship is excellent. This post is referring in general terms to the journey required to create and maintain an excellent parent/child relationship.

The one word that really made me put things into perspective, was a word the President Obama used to describe how the decision to send US troops to Afghanistan was different from other critical US policy decisions.

Sobriety.

President Obama spoke of a certain level of sobriety that was needed on that particular decision. He said it was the one decision that was different from all the others. I paraphrase here, to illustrate the magnitude:

“Bailing out the auto industry or the financial system is one thing. But picturing Arlington Cemetery, with a mother, sitting in the rain, in front of a tombstone…..”
