View Article  A Brave New Hope

I'd like to dedicate this article to a friend.  She needs some strength now, and I'd like to share my advice in one word.  Forgiveness

Just finished my midnight skate ...again at 1:20 am LOL  And yes that toad was still there waiting on a bug.   The ground still rumbled under my wheels and the night, despite the air being thick... felt perfect.

I'm a glutton for punishment I suppose.  I skated all day it seems.  Only to skate again when I get home.   Lately I have more energy than I know what to do with.  I had a bowl of cereal this morning with fresh raspberries.  For lunch on the road I had a chilled salad and half a quart of concord grape juice with a banana.    For dinner, two steaks and ice-water and another banana. LOL  

But I heard a song tonight I have not heard in years.  Each word seemed to fit.  So I have forgone writing a book entry tonight for something a bit poignant. I really liked this song long ago, it really seemed rewarding and refreshing tonight.  I could wrote every word it seemed so fitting in it's spirit.   I'm in a fantastic place in my life now.  The moments I'm pensive are meaningful and optimistic, no longer a road to melancholy.  Tonight's skate felt great.  Great song...  To my friend that could use some support, I hope these lyrics can help you too. :)

Looking out of the window
Can't believe what I see
Where was all this beauty when I loved you
From now on this is my world
Yes we lost but I don't hurt any more
I knew there must be more to life than this

Now is the time for me
I'm grateful you set me free
Baby one ...   more »

WHY MOSTLY PHOTOS OF LARS?
The answer is simple. It's to protect my friends privacy. I'm not a narcessist. LOL
