This is not the fight I wanted
but it's the only one I've got.
No place for courage vaunted
in a war that God forgot.
I'm glad you can't see the ugly
realities of the daily grind,
and read the tricks malignancy
plays upon my tired mind.
I hope all the pain has meaning
but it's something I can't tell,
and perhaps there is a gleaning
of these postcards from hell.
In the end I gotta trust
a God who's proven just.
I am running out of ways to say how hard things are getting, so I won't.
Instead I will tell you that there are lovely banks of clouds over the Manzanos, a mountain range to our east.
And there is a very sweet young labrador, Jax, visiting. He lives own the road and comes to hang out for a few day at a time. Everyone loves him, and his owners now he's here, just taking a vacation.
So on that note, how about the Go-Go's, with Vacation?

Friends are everything. I couldn't have done it.

DeleteThank YOU!
I'm glad Jax has come to call, Andrew. I'm guessing you and the lads are finding him to be good company ...
ReplyDeleteLinda, he's a wonderful presence, and he's fallen in love with Belle, our new puppy. So charming!
DeleteHey Andrew ... just stumbled on your blog ... don't know your story, but will be praying!
ReplyDeleteI can tell, from the tiny bits and piece, you are a man of faith.
Heidi, I'm so glad you're here. Short version - pancreatic cancer and non-Hodgkins lymphoma, and I intend to beat them both.
DeleteAnd yes, it's faith and prayers that carry me. I don't resent what's happening; this is God's will, and I intend to witness from wherever I'm placed.
Thanks!
