I used to write more frequently about the brain trust. Family dinner conversations taken to the next level. Despite the stay orders and cooking at home, we’ve not had any of those in quite some time. Things changed after the divorce and re-ordering of life. Not mine … Pony Boy.
Once again we are together. Our original family unit of four as we talk around each other. About superfluous things. Facing the truth is hard y’all. I’m not gonna lie. Facing the truth might end us.
Now I have to ask, would that be awful?
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.
Yea I know this a romantic song. But that one line is universal. Cliche’ or not …
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.
The short answer to the question “would that be awful?” is no. Not necessarily. What’s way worse is continuing down a path of unfulfilled. Pound by literally added pound. Deflecting and projecting is way worse. I want to be brave. To face the truth head on no matter the outcome. And who knows, we might be surprised by all of it? One can hope.
As always, more to come.
