Every winter around this time I get ill with a bronchial infection. I don't know why it always comes as a surprise everytime it happens.
I've got most of my voice back, but a serious cough.
When I was about 7 years old, my mom took my little sister and I to visit my grandpa after church on easter sunday. He wanted to take pictures of us in our fancy easter dresses. (I hated mine, felt it was too tight around the neck and spent most of the morning yanking at the collar and feigning strangulation. Coughing, gagging.. the whole bit). Anyhow, my sister managed to spill orange juice down the front of her dress and my mom instructed me to take her to the bathroom and try to dab it off. So, we go in the bathroom and I grab some paper towels and start blotting at the dress and backing towards the toilet so I could sit down. And I sat, and fell right into the toilet. The seat cover wasn't down, and neither was the toilet seat itself.
So, my sister has the front of her dress drenched in orange juice, while I'm soaked from the waist down in toilet water.
All my grandpa wanted was to get nice pictures of us in our easter sunday outfits.

thats funny. I also have a small library, in which i'm fortunate to have been given a couple of little books with quotes only by Native Americans. My Mom gave me one, my friend Eric gave me the other. There are many beautiful ways to live and think, all over the world.I think it's beneficial to showcase the wisdom and beliefs of the "silent minority." I'm glad these things are written, i like to read, i need to read, to be reminded. It's difficult to stay in balance. For me anyway.Take care.
