I’m not interested in being in a relationship with them, but I do love them so very much.

The Note 11/8/22

she believes that some years ago she wrote it about me. The handwritten note read, “Sometimes people are kind with no expectations of anything in return. Remember to pay it forward.” The last line reads, “Keep the sweater.”

Linda 9/27/21

Today, I feel as if I can’t be as much help as I would like to be, and yet, I still try to be of service to others. The Freemasons teach that the way to change society is to model the behaviors we wish to see in others. As a Mason, I return to this lesson on occasion. Maybe, just maybe, my empathetic friends can change our world.

Valentine’s Day Plea 2/13/21

A Little Nobody 5/28/20

Yes, that’s me. I’m nobody. I was born a nobody, I lived life as a nobody, I have always been a nobody, I am still a nobody and no doubt, I will die a nobody.

My New Girlfriend 5/27/20

I heard the absolute cutest, tiniest sweetest little voice say “hi.” I looked around, seeing nothing

Sylvester 5/23/20

there, crossing this little road leading to my light, I see an older man (not elderly, but not young) carrying half a dozen loaded bags.
