The other day I rattled off on some of the females in my life, that I know or made an impact in my life. As promised I would “share the fun” with the male counterparts. Luckily for you, this list is short but the blurbs may be longer!
Normally and I say that lightly, I would start off with my Pops but instead I will with:
PG, he is a champion of mine, patience and knowledge about and with people. He can be with someone 30 minutes and know them inside and out. He’s shown me to take it easy on myself. How to be in love with a woman for over 40 years, that after all that time its still ok to hold hands in public.
Pops, wow, as much as I run off about him, he’s taught me what not to do. So what I see to do the revese. To support my children on their ventures, to respect their feelings and let them have a try at life. That everything isn’t always going to be rosie but at least deal with it. How to be a man and act like one as well.
Luke, that you can marry young, you can have wonderful life and still carry on as a kid. Not only did he teach me to tie my shoes but to be provider of my future family, then still go out and have a wild time.
Jacks, dear God, this one has taught me much about really paying attention to others feelings. Looking for the beauty and goodness in everyone and believing in second chances. That hyper sometimes is good.
Trace, that everything makes music if you listen hard enough. To be funny in one second and blow you away with a smart ass remark the next. Letting someone hurt you and learning from that hurt.
Chris, he’s taught me the best way to be a huge fool. To work with a monster hangover and love it. (He needs to get back from Florida I miss him).
Wayne, the counter part to Chris, again the best way to be huge fool and a way to cheat at playing quarters and not get caught. (He can stay in Florida)
Last but not least George, the old man that gave me tips and tricks in lawn care. Who showed me that science actually came from the old ways and “them smart men that tote heavy books aren’t always right”.
As I said the list is short but they each mean something to me. Besides I didn’t want to sound too mushy with the gents and I do want to go out tonight!
