Sadness is a big part of my life. This is one reason why I attend so many functions. I have built a schedule that requires my attendance. And also my thought. Otherwise I would sit and stare at the wall. As busy as I keep myself, I still spend time in a funk.
Even in the middle of my busy life I get so sad. Sometimes I feel that life is all over for me. Then I get up and go somewhere or exercise or write.
I am so grateful to my family and others that I believe sense my malaise and try to help. Bless you all and thanks from the bottom of my heart.
It is possible to be happy and yet very sad at the same time. I am, a lot.

Sadness certainly is a part of life...even a good one, which yours has been. Fortunately,you have a lot of sweet memories, too. I'm so glad that you have so many people nearby who love you. And I'm here loving you and thinking of you from afar.
ReplyDeleteHey Mr. Chuck,
ReplyDeleteThere are so many people that love you that would quickly argue that life is not all over for you, or at least, not done with you. You are loved and needed so just keep on keepin' on, my friend. Here is a good quote for you from one of the great minds of our time.
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." - Dr. Seuss
It sure was a nice surprise to have you stop by the shop the other day. I have been following your blog for a long time now and I have a ton of questions for you. Maybe one day we can have a longer visit and I can ask you a few of them. I will look forward to it.
Love,
Andrea (A.B.)
