A Tuesday to remember - Feb 24.2014.. Inspired by wifeys classmate..
What a day , cruising to Riverside Ca,, in my muscle car and spending a wonderful day with wifey and friend.. It was quiet ,calm and enjoyable.. But the story from Angela , not her real name was shocking and even disheartening.. I mean.. Just imagine , you are living the perfect life with that special someone , only to have it cut short by cancer,, and boom the love of your life is gone, Your hubby, you best friend , lover,, your everything with a wink of eyes is gone, and then.. only too almost see your life almost end.By speeding.. now,,,I'm not sure if this meeting was meeting the wifey wanted me to hear and see. But to see the pain and tears in her eyes,, for losing her husband and almost losing her life.. speeding.. Just made me think? I mean.. My wife,, is very special to me.. I mean.. I don't want her to live life without,,me. That's why she texts and calls me to to be careful.. She knows I speed and i take risks,, Now.. I must admit I drove tame,, I didn't take as many chances and I drove beauty . like a luxury car.. But spending time with wifey and her close friend was really something I probably needed. I know and I have seen too many of my friends , classmates and shipmates die from drunk driving , or killed by others that were drunk and reckless. Its really depressing to think of those special people in my life to suffer such short lives. But I know life is unpredictable and regardless if I;m safe ,, you cant control what others do,, I mean. If others choose to speed and cut you off or make unsafe lane changes.. What can you do ? Curse. flick them off. tail gate the,,, chase them,, wave your fist.. It makes no use, if anything you are adding to the dangerous situations on the crowded so cal roads,, But we do it,, because our egos get in the way.. We feel at times we own the roads.. But its human emotions and for anyone to say why did they do that? Because we are humans and we are prone to desires, and feelings.. We cant go through life , thinking your going to do the right thing all of the time or some of the time.. The only thing we can count on.. is we are born.. we live and we all will die. now when and how is always the million dollar question,, and i think its better we don't know,, because what anxiety,, if we knew.. Its human nature,,, if we knew, we would be more sad , than happy.. So ,, its better to enjoy each day and live life to its fullest and do your best each day,, Because it may be your last day on earth.. so with that.. My Tuesday tip of the day is,, enjoy you life, and never take anything for granted and take care of friends.. Because I know when you lose a close or best friend.. it changes your thoughts and ideas, and even takes away a piece of you.. I know I tried to think losing a best friend.. would not bother me. But these last few months , not having that bestie , laugh, giggle and encourage me,, has left me empty and wondering where is Mel? I know life throws curves and I'm no different. I 'm a positive thinker and I like to be happy, but when things go bad , or people you care about suddenly are gone,, Its not as easy as saying oh well.. In life. as we get older,, Your going to meet people that just make a connection , its undeniable and its special.. and others may not understand or care about that connection,, and because of that,,, causes pains for those Friends and others involved... I'm not going to apologize for my connections with some people., because some people just have it , and for others its too much for them to handle. But its ok.. Because ,, No one knows the true destinies in life.. Some day , some where.. We are all going to face the truth or reality in life and when that happens,, all we can do is be ourselves and be true to those that are true to you.. and when its said and done, you lived the life you wanted and did what you wanted to do with out any regrets or concerns,, because life is fleeting. The old saying " of its too good to be true.. it probably is,,, and that's why.. those friendships those connections that seem so evident in our eyes or pictures .. there were just that. just... smoke and mirrors and just a moment in time that wasn't really real,, but just foolish hearts running wild,,, and not thinking about anything but oneself.. Oh well. We live and learn and as time goes by. it seems what should of or could of.. was that.. just an illusion.. or reflections of what we thought was real.. Today , was one of the most real days I had with wifey and I'm thankful for her being so loyal and loving and caring and above all , just being there . no matter how insensitive I can be, or how angry I can get or how selfish I can be.. if anything she showed that No mater what.. I accept you for what you are and I'm thankful for that and I'm glad , today is wonderful memory I will keep forever.. and I cant wait to spend more days like this .. Be true to those that are true to you.. because there are not many out there I can say that about!!!
