The Wino And I Know The Pain

Grief Is Like The Wake Behind A Boat. It Starts Out As A Huge Wave That Follows Close Behind You And Is Big Enough To Swamp And Drown You If You Suddenly Stop Moving Forward. But If You Do Keep Moving, The Big Wake Will Eventually Dissipate. And After A Long Time, The Waters Of Your Life Get Calm Again, And That Is When The Memories Of Those Who Have Left Begin To Shine As Bright And As Enduring As The Stars Above.

It Takes Just As Little Time To See The Positive Side Of Life As It Does The Negative Side.

[writing] Is Edit, Edit, Edit. It's Almost Like Getting A Boat Ready To Go To Sea. You've Still Got A Countless Number Of Things Left To Fix, But You've Just Got To Go, "o.k., Everybody Get On The Boat. We're Going, Ready Or Not."

Maybe There Is Another Who Sees Life Not As A Flickering Candle But As A Torch That Can Illuminate An Undiscovered World.
