March 13 - Tolerance.

The word God gave me was Tolerance. I used to think that referred to how much I could drink but I come to find it is the readiness to allow others to think, feel, and act as they see fit. I don't have to like it and I don't have to think, feel, or act the way they do. I just have to allow them to be where they're at and to accept that other people have other ideas about how life should be lived.

March 5 - Love

Love is the word for today. I can pass on lots of cool quotes about the word "love", because I've done lots of reading in my life. Love is attention without judgement. Love is an act of ancient recognition. I think those two are from Anam Cara (Soul Friend) by John O'Donohue. Father Martin once said that love was not so much two people gazing into each other's eyes as it was two people gazing in the same direction. Yep, I got lots of them. But if you really wanna know what love is, hang out with Nancy and me for awhile and witness it in action.

March 23 is 22 years since our first date. Just saying.
