It's been awhile since I've checked in here on The Daily Drive. After my last post (Remembering The Light) I just wanted to take some time off from my writing. I spent most of that time just observing the important things & putting them in perspective. Over the course of the summer my daughter left the east coast for California & most recently my son became a homeowner in Boston. Just those two events alone helped to remind me that no matter what happens life continues to go on. If you spend too much time immersed in one thing, you're sure to miss the impact of another. So I'm glad my kids are experiencing life on their own terms & living it to the fullest. I'm happy that friends......true friends..... are there with a hand, a shoulder and, most importantly to me, a laugh when it's needed most. Having the knowledge that family & friends are always there no matter what is going on in their own lives makes you realize that the most important things in life are the people both here & gone that have made your own life special indeed.
