I took my son for a "gentlemens lunch" on friday with my dad. 3 generations breaking bread. It was a special day for my dad, it was special for my son, and it was special for me. Then the next day I saw gigi's note and felt so sad for his dad and Gigi. But also grateful in a weird way, because i'm so accutely aware of how short this journey can be, and how anyone of us can exit the gene pool in any moment totally unexpectedly. I'm mindful to flow beyond all the trivial differences that people let get in the way and look beyond the (often retarded) positions people take and just appreciate them. Appreciate that we exist in large part because of them. and that is enough.
