Giving thought to others

This is a fine day, I am among the breathing.

It is fine because nothing exceptional has happened to disturb my mundane existence. Actually I might find it better if it was interrupted with some above normal activity. Being retired, sometime thought as retarded and living in a tin box with visiting privileges. That is a reference to a child's view of her grand-parents life. Since I, our living arrangements meet that description, I refereed to it.

Anyway, this has been a day similar to most of the other days. Where I reside, the most excitement is when the EMTs and Paramedics come in on a call of assistance. That may not be true to all but it does bring out the observers.

I shall mention, our daughter's life has been flushed. She was nailed with a DUI and the judge could only see to be as harsh as possible. That will make it difficult for her to attend to her son's best interest. Yes, she is liable for the charge. Being liable should not necessarily destroy your life. When it cost you your job, your income, etc... It is more likely to drive someone to committing more "crimes".

Enough about that.

I am in contact with a violinist in Ireland. He is a man without a country, a guest in Ireland. Not permitted to leave, restricting his performing area. If he does he cannot reenter Ireland. He cannot go home without losing his guest status.

That would make my daughter's problems a bit less in comparison. I feel that he is a good, fine, violinist. Since I don't play or study the instrument, I only give my thought. I enjoyed his playing.

The reason I decided to write at this time, is this. I was watching some video I am working on, consisting of photos, and his came up and I wanted to mention him.

I have two brothers, had, he was the youngest of the two, but still older than me. He was not a lot older, two years tops, two years younger than the older of the two.

He served our country twice, once in the Amy and then in the Air force. The older of the two spent time in the Navy. I, being younger and the time right, did not enter the armed services. There are times I wonder what my life would be like, if I had enlisted. I am sure it would be very different.

If and maybe when, anyone reads and finds my cyberfiller includes some calories. I will get more involved. It may be if I don't get more involved first there will be no reason to get involved. There are times you need B to get A, and A to get B. That creates a situation of, "what do I do"?
