An Anniversary August 9, 1974
50 incredible years. An anniversary There are moments in our lives that change the course of the future. Aug.9, 1974 was one of those days. Nixon resigned. A year before tragedy struck our family and took the life of my sweet sister leaving 3 helpless children and our mother destroyed. I miscarried our baby because of the stress. But we survived the sad year and we're hoping I was pregnant again. New life was needed! Somehow we survived and we found optimism in the midst of that hell. Charlie Daniels was singing "The devil went down to Georgia". My husband Dan was driving us to meet friends at Oak Knoll in Ashland for dinner and dancing. I said no alcohol for me! We were excited about canning from the huge garden we raised. Suddenly there's 2 lanes of traffic at a standstill on the freeway. Dan slammed the brakes and the car was bouncing off guard rails.

ReplyDeleteThis says how you treat your mother is how your life will be. And I deserve it!
All my mother wanted was for me to hear her! I didn't want to see her upset. The most selfish thing I ever did!
I deserve it all!
I wanted to save you from what you are going to feel when you have no chance left to speak up and LISTEN

FIRE AND Rain
ReplyDeleteSays it all
I've
seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you look down upon me, Jesus?
You've got to help me make a stand
You've just got to see me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
And I won't make it any other way
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Been walking my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows, when the cold wind blows
It'll turn your head around
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line
To talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you, baby
One more time again, now
Thought I'd see you one more time again
