nothing is by accident
uneventful flights from 44 and rain to sunshine and 84
from dallas to miami sat with a latino women and her son chris – beautiful people
she has worked for the discovery channel for years working on programming and
how the root of our problems as a society and the way to correct is through educating the young
to be open minded, compassionate to start by loving the earth and build from there to loving ourselves
then loving each other
how right she is – conversation turned to me and why I was heading to miami
apparently I don’t look like a local with my turtleneck heading to 84 degree weather
told her briefly our family story – so sympathetic, couldn’t believe that happened in her community
it did almost 3 yrs ago now, as I fly back down to face the demons
inside and outside, i am almost ready to walk back in Ryder Trauma to see if my memory is as concrete as that night
maybe this time, nothing is by accident
just like what I told Katie when she came home from bball tryouts and she said she wasn’t going to stay on the team if she “only” made C team
Danielle’s head whipped around – what is wrong w/ C team – coming from the kid who is greatful for all her accomphlishments
to the one that has never had to work very hard for hers
Katie texted me as I landed – “mom I made the JV team”
See I said – you just needed to show you wanted it
she is now satisfied – even with me 3000 miles away
hopefully she will learn whether she made the C team or Jv
nothing happens by accident.
