A  treasured photo from days gone by when both my beloved Jazz and Harley were with me… A most poignant and timely reminder as we enter this new year, just how fragile, fleeting, and precious life truly is…

Within the course of 2014 there certainly was good, happiness, and much to be thankful for in my life. There was also an abundance of hardship, emotional discourse and sadness and my heart goes out to every one that had similar circumstances, as I know I am certainly not alone in that regard.

What were the lessons learned from it all? More so than ever, I think for me it was the realization that life truly is finite and extremely fragile. Not that I didn’t know it before, but losing Jazz in 2013 and then Harley unexpectedly in 2014, those were life altering moments for me that have indelibly colored my perspective on everything I see and do.

My school picture back in 1968 when I was 8 years old.

They say a picture can tell a story, but sometimes that is not always the case and the image can be misleading. For example, the above picture of me was taken back in 3rd grade when I was 8 years old. I had posted it on Facebook a couple days ago for “Throw-back Thursday” and on the surface, the picture is one that evokes a reaction of “Aww” from most people because admittedly, I do look rather sweet, precious, and innocent. A lovely moment captured in time of cherished days gone by… Read more
