Random thoughts on memorial day

Random thought number 1:  Life throws you some things that don't make sense, that make you feel low, and that leave you wondering why.  But inside and outside of those moments there are times when you feel love, peace, joy, gratitude, safety, admiration, smittenness (my new invented tonight word), and the knowledge that this too shall pass and when it does you'll rise from the ashes, stronger, braver, more sure of yourself and the world around you, and willing to cast your ego and cares aside and ride the wave of life. 

Random thought number 2:  Uh, I just used a water analogy for life.  Yeah, it must be a weird day. 

Random thought number 3:  Why is it so hard to find a pair of flip flops with a little bit of heel that aren't dressy?  Just a random question really. 

Random thought number 4:  My son is growing up before my eyes.  I'm so proud of each new change, but wow, sometimes it all happens so fast I have no time to remember and retain the daily things he does. 

Random thought number 5:  Om mani padme hum.
