My Cousin Passed Away Yesterday

Post by DLJake »

I looked back. 1968-9 was a long time ago. I was 5-6yo. I started kindergarten when I was 4, turned five by Thanksgiving. The memories are patchwork. Like old pictures in a photo album. His dad and my dad clamming. It was so cold. It was so fun. Lots of fishing everywhere. He and my brother built a mini-bike. I held the flashlight. We rode it behind the house in the open fields. We caught "Horny Toads" and pestered the other female cousins because kooties.

Hard to find any sort of badness in there. That would come later. And that's what's plaguing me.

Sure is hard trying to be Christian.

Gosh, it sure is. It's the brokenness of us all lining up for the great healer that makes it so beautiful, though.

Love you, man. Praying for peace and grace to cover your needs.
