I only play because I think I’m really Santa Claus and I intend to give it all away.
Honestly! It is an
“insane” purposed-perversion! I have no-need of riches, don’t need or want
anything! Already got more than I need. Won the elusive “Lottery-of-life-and-love” with a special mantra emblazoned on a
brilliant red pennant Proudly flying
on a golden-staffed gonfalon. Blazing, bold white letters proclaim my meaning: Faith! Family! Freedom! Amen!
Later yet, to celebrate my fortieth
year, I quit my exciting and rewarding “J-O-B”, still enjoying my
precious-Freedom under the guise of
“commitment” and spent the next 18 years with a young man who became my very
best-friend; our 1st grandson, Z.
Tyler! “Fun-’n-games”!
Often took him out of school to play
golf; went to cardinal Thursday afternoon ball games!
Once I came to my senses---Oh! Hell! I knew it all along!...I began
really living holy-Liberty!
Made more money after that “Epiphany”: When you stop chasing money,
it just kind of starts chasing you! Funny!?
And---I know you don’t believe it…That’s quite alright! It does work!
Kind-a like Redemption!-Salvation!---Al you gotta do…is Believe! Isn’t that---just…too easy?
Some have inquired “How?” do you retire at age 40? Do it!---and…Don’t ever
look back!
Yeah! I’m a professional-bum! But, I’m good at it!
Lot’s of Practice! Always!
Won’t admit to having “No ambition.”
Just focused Life-Love in a Measure! Pleasure! Treasure! Trinity!
Reckon so, it does no harm---and, it suits me…to a “T”! Amen!
In the present, I have found an
emotion-devotion to writing---an attempt(?)…anyway!
We’ve been exceedingly Blessed! Faith! Family! Freedom!
Fun-’n-games! Always! Amen!
A Fantastic–family
with beautiful girls and handsome boys; all highly intelligent and kind!
I errantly bragged about my wife, “The Saint”, only to one fine day realize
she’s an “Angel”!
So!?---Another…Epiphany! I “get” the Aussie God Hunters excitement finding a
bit of gold!
You see!
The Pleasure is in the journey! It’s
not some elusive Prize! It’s Playing-the-game!
Baseball isn’t about the tally-score, the victory is simply participating in the
adventure-game!
Maybe it’s as simple as what my
cardiologist says makes a “Good” golfer. Low
expectations!
“Yes!
Lovely-Lady Candice Leah!” I began an explanation, “The charm in finding a tiny sliver of gold is not in the value of the “material”, rather, in the
expression of the virtue!” Amen!
Politely, she didn’t argue. Reckon so
she knows me too well---or…she’s finally just given-up!
Never showed much adult Good-sense---Never needed it…Never found any worth the effort!
Thanksgiving Praise! Honor! Glory! Prayer for Life! & Love!
I solemnly Pray: Dear God! My Lord! Allow, Please, that I might once more enjoy the majesty of the Rocky Mountains, view just once more a soaring eagle from above his position, ride the noble friend-horse view the blue Pacific from a parapet escarpment, visit the Diamond Mine in Arkansas, search Arizona for the Dutchman’s Lost Gold Mine. Savor the sunshine-gold, bathe luxuriant in the glow of an alabaster pale full moon delight, kiss my Love, hug my progeny, revel in a satiated-spirit holy-sacred Peace, Dream-and-do all-the-impossibles, never give-up, make many smile and laugh, offer Praise! Honor! & Glory! Embrace and enjoy! Ride the wild Magic-unicorn across the cosmos-Fantasy! Plant another tree! Live! Love! & Laugh! Another dawn! A new-day! A chance! A “Whisper-wind” time-through-space! Sure enough! Reckon so! If Thy-will be done---I’ll be there!...always and forever! Amen!
For
I live just yonder south of a golden sun high noon
A
bit west below silver-glow alabaster pale full moon
Amen!---Amen!...Amen!
The end
