a visit

first if you haven't read Indigo's latest entry, please do @ http://deafscreams.blogspot.com/ the name of the entry is "Hope, Why Not?". it is a beautiful entry regarding our elections and Hope. i'm behind her 100% on what she said. she writes far more eloquently and earnestly what i can't put into words. i think i may have lost some readers because of my choice for president, but i really don't give a damn. we will change here in America and either you change with us or be left behind. we canNOT live in Fear and always stay the same. we must face our fears and ride the waves of change that's before us. there is HOPE for all of us who choose to accept it. we have come far in this election and i hope it opens the doors for others besides African Americans to become president. We are not a nation of only black and white. This election opens doors for others of different races, gender, nationality and more to dream BIG for their future as well as our nation. The Winds of Change are upon us. Become like the seasons and CHANGE!


now on a personal note, this afternoon i stopped by the Diamond Shamrock which i hung out and took my breaks while working at the p.o. lo and behold a postal customer of mine was there. i immediately said hello but he couldn't quite remember where he knew me. i asked about his wife by her name and he still couldn't remember. the other Caren in the store working remembered and told him. aha! now he remembered. it was sooo great to see him and chat for a little bit. he grew his hair back again=long, as he had it. just before i retired he had cut it. it was the same Sean i knew. he looks much better in long hair. he looks great and his family is doing well. i was always talking with Sean and his wife Theresa on my route. they were of the few i knew well from delivering their mail. i did let him know i didn't have time to say goodbye because they let me go at the end of the day after working. no chance to say goodbye, cya laterz, to my regular customers. i was just plain out of there. so that was my delight today, other than Indigo's entry:-)! make sure you read it! have a great one!

Well you know I don't agree with your choice for president but I do agree with your freedom to vote for who you want. I am hoping and praying all my fears don't come true. Hugs to you
