Boy, I sure do miss....

....the café in town. In the good weather, I would go and purchase an espresso and some Italian pastry. Then, sit outside the café and enjoy. I wish I was physically able to go back there.

This outdoor café was used in the Sopranos.

sorry Mike, losing things we love or things that were important sucks, but we have to live in the now. letting go is never easy. Bad choices in our past echo in the present. But I tell you from experience, letting it go is like taking a weight off.

Oh, how my life would have been different if Katrina hadn't taken The Camp. I hear ya Mike. It's better to regret something you've done than something you haven't.

I don't know. I dealt with Typhoon Deanne. It knocked the crap out of me. But I am proud I survived, made changes and moved on. The past made me who I am, better and worse. But I get to choose who I am today. I am more than the things that went wrong, the things I didn't get, the plans that didn't come to fruition. I am me, imperfect in every way. But I am happier than then. Go figure.

Yesterday is a canceled check.

Tomorrow is a promissory note.

Only today is legal tender.

Spend it wisely.
