Benzinha, I had to smile at your words...
I was sitting on a restaurant balcony at a holiday place, a very rustic and semi-basic place of cabins right by the beach. I was put up here by the people who asked me to speak. The reason I smiled. Well there were two. I first smiled to receive one of your chatty, from the heart comments, and yes I will be piglet. Smile.
I smiled too about your sister and her secret thingie because I was sitting at a place within the same 10 square miles where the woman who wrote that thingie lives and worked on it.
OK, back to writing...

azur, I live each day now as though it were very close to my last.
Time is of the essence and just what is important at the end stage? I am trying to figure it out and do it.
It is all a jumble of this and that and hope and dashings and the devil take the hindmost, I say, so I keep moving, albeit more slowly and with the same lack of deliberation.
This week is my baby boy's wedding and I focus on that. I mounted an exhibit of Day of the Dead altares at the Centro Cultural, an impossible task, and found it painfully possible, I just worked slowly and tirelessly and gave it one last day of my precious time.
It looks yummy, but my camera died, so no photo in your email box for you.
The camera dying was interesting as I had been documenting things for others to remember and then, gave up documentation and just decided to participate without a record. Life was like that before and it is good.
May none of this pessimism be yours. You stay optimisitc and use that funny "The Secret" thingie that my sister uses and wields like a club and EVERYTHING comes to her. It all comes to her.
I say that the foolish demand of the best answers in life is silliness, that it changes nothing, that my life will continue with the same rotten luck forever and she says, "See?? I am right. You bring the yucky stuff on!!"
I admit that I am Eeyore and that there is no way to escape a lifetime of Eeyore.
May you always be Piglet as he smiles his way through absolutely everything.

I can't totally agree with the not on a battlefield statement...
when I consider your uphill ventures and issues -- avoiding war metaphor here. Hope your full energy returns and your inner smile owns the day. Breathe. Keep writing! :)

Good insights and priorities, Azur
We possess the wisdom of our paths, but often find it difficult to remember the direction. Take care and enjoy your vacation. Positive thoughts sent.
