Life

Today was Memorial day and Maria and I attended a cookout gathering of Friends. Once again I was reminded of how different I am. As I commented yesterday, most people prefer their "nifty possessions, technology and other distractions I tend to stay away from." Most of the talk was about those distractions. As they talked I felt fondness and love for the human condition. Living, being alive, is a wonderful and beautiful adventure - so is getting old and dying.
