If my tomorrows are few...at least I have had today

You know how you anticipate something and then when you get there....it is just not what you expected?  This has gone beyond anything that I could have ever dreamed.  It is truly a dream come too.
   Our dream started out in Indy on Friday morning...While we were sitting in the Indy airport waiting to board, I wanted to get a picture of us at the airport..I have a chalkboard that I wrote Aloha on.  A lady saw us and came over with a box of Hawaiian candy.  She lives there and is going home...I knew right then and there...it was going to be a very special vacation.
   We have two weeks of fractional ownership in resort/condos, all over the world.  This means, we own this and do not have to pay anything ever again, unless we use it, then you have to pay for the maid service and cleanup for the week.  We can leave this to Regan and Seth when we die...I am so glad we did this.  We are staying in a room that is more like an apartment.  We were so tired last night from the Hana trip, that we just wanted to get back and stay in.  We stopped at a grocery store and bought some steaks and grilled out by the pool...we will do this again.  Loved it.  
   We are like all of you out there...you take your mate and love for granted.  You fall into your routine of life.
We are at the age in life, that we are still young enough physically, but we are seeing people all around us, becoming sick or even dying.  It makes you really enjoy these moments.  I am trying to savor them and I am trying to capture these moments on film.  I hope you all have enjoyed seeing Hawaii with me.  For me, this is a dream come true...Everywhere I go, is so beautiful.
   I haven't had any mishaps yet...no falling into a hole or no unexpected pantie whispers either...After our ride to Hana yesterday and being in the car all day....we stopped at a grocery store to get some food.  We both laughed at ourselves...we were both walking kinda stooped over and really sore.  We have to do our traveling to these faraway places when we are still capable of doing it...everything you really want to do takes a great deal of physical exertion.  We walked down to the black beach yesterday.  Going down to it was no problem...coming back up was another story.  Rich literally, put his hand on my butt and just pushed me up.  I felt like the little engine that could....LOL
    If my tomorrows are few.....at least I have had today...these words just came to me on this trip.  It pretty much sums up how I have been feeling.  Yes, being in Hawaii makes it easy to say this, but whereever you are...if you can savor your everyday joys...it will make your life so much richer.  Tomorrow is not ever guaranteed, only this moment, only what you make of it.
 

 
My wish for my kids is that someday on their Anniversary, they can come here and recapture their love.
