YOU MADE IT HAPPEN !

Dear Blog Readers, (This is my 1000th Post)

Thank you for the almost 40K visits to this Blog. I receive no financial compensation for this endeavor. The Blog is always a work in progress----I have sadly neglected the Post labeling which would make the Posts easier to locate.

I am amazed at the number of international readers. It is very humbling to realize people from all over the planet take time to read my Posts. Also, there is a very, very special someone who regularly checks the Blog for updates. Many years ago, you asked me to never forget you---I never have and never will ! I think often of "What might have been."

Perhaps, just perhaps, we will see 100K visits before I cross The River.

AFTER GRADUATION---SOME CLASSMATES.....

        

·       Have answered the Last Roll Call and crossed River Jordan. They were part of our lives then and in our memories forever.

·       Have attained fortune and fame. Others, have to sometimes try to beat their checks to the bank. All have worked hard as long as their health and retirement plans dictated.

·       Have experienced the unparalleled joy of the birth of their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren.

·       Live very close to where they grew up. Others live far away. Some even live in foreign countries.

·       Have experienced great pain and sorrow.

·       Have dealt with the tragedy of addiction. Every family knows a family that may still be praying for recovery.

·       Have learned to accept family members who have chosen an alternate lifestyle. Love heals all.

·       Are dealing daily with the many changes in health, finance, and relationships that are part of getting older.

·       Are connecting with other classmates and friends after many, many years.

·       Experience deep emotional pain and regret over some decision or choice in their distant Past. It can never be changed; however, with the Grace of God, there is Hope for the Future.

WHAT I HOPE THIS MEANS

PUBLISHED AT THE REQUEST OF AUTHOR: 

"One of the things I learned reading Sherlock Holmes is not to draw conclusions beyond the available evidence. However, sometimes the hope of the heart affects judgement much more than concrete facts. 

Readers will sense the heartache of this man who wants to believe someone very, very special from his past regularly reads Glenn's Blog. Hope, like love, cannot be stopped or denied

Circumstances preclude more direct communication. Build a steel wall around me and I will always cherish the sweetness, the tenderness, and the youthful passion of yesterday. Time and distance may separate our mortal beings, but never the thoughts, the hopes, and love we started those many years ago.

I hope above everything that very special someone will read this and know I will never forget them.

Glenn has assured me he will  relay your reply."
