Wow…all in one month!

So wow
I made it back from South Dakota
without having to milk a single cow
but I was milked by the mosquitoes
bitten by the flies and reminded of memories of days gone by
being with family does that
reminds us where we have been
while they remind us where we are going
"Don’t do that, you will go to hell !!!"
OK so I don’t place much on their value judgments
but it was amazing as we have gotten older each is a step closer to acceptance of our common past
I'm surprised to say my Dad is now my friend
Just don’t expect me to drink with him
But it was relatively sober-
sober enough to remember to blow off the fireworks we bought
I was glad to come home
although it was a small plane
a crop duster would have been faster
I should've been back around 6pm
I get home after midnight
well at least it was a cool 90 degrees in Palm Springs
when I finally arrived.
I guess the best part was knowing my Dad is OK
he's grown and changed from the man I knew growing up
I know he would never admit that-
he is just he and that is all that he is
but like with all friends we say
"I know how you are and I like you anyway"
So life is good or this bipolar man
I’ve started to date
although I always meet people like me
I don’t think two bald guys should date
can you imagine the confusion
(voice) hey isn't that DeWayne and Bob
*2nd voice) honey put on your glasses it's noon and that's a hummer with it's headlights on
But oh well-
some of you may not like that I am gay
I didn’t like it either
but we are all crated in an image we will never comprehend
isn’t it possible that (s)he is all and everything
you and me??
oh well I digress on a point- my bad
and we know bad men probably go to hell
but then we aren’t the judge are we
so going home was great
coming home was nice
actually taking with my Dad and Sister resolved many childhood issues
I came home my shrink said
You sound so good- I'll see you in 3 or 4 months
My therapist says-
you sound so good that we will just put you on a needed basis
hey on meds I could handle my issues in therapy
then I could go home already OK with everything
nice to have a past that doesn’t bring tears
even if it brought welts and blisters
I'll be trying to post at leaest a few times a month
with love and respect
and
KNOW THE SUN ALWAYS SHINES
