A Declaration

"When a man reaches my age, he would often looks back at the life that has passed him by. Whether it is with regrets or what-ifs', human nature is always questioning and evaluating.

There have been instances that I still think back to. Some with sadness, some with questions and some with joy. I have made mistakes and I have experienced triumph. And I have made my peace.

At my age, it seems impossible to be shocked by something and yet, I must say, my AJ has done that. Little Mimi! He has chosen Mimi to be his bride! I couldn't have been more shocked if he had said that the earth was square.

Even as he has made me a happy man with his choice of bride, I cannot help but recall a conversation I'd had with him. At the time, I had not felt that it was important enough but now it seems to be.
