Welcome to Jamaica! Mon!
Our lives are a tapestry. Woven with the interlaced threads of our experiences, decisions, events and most importantly people. As the warp of our lives unfold, every moment creates the weft. The richness of our tapestry is determined by each moment. Every new person adds color, every new event adds texture. We can choose cotton for our weft - a life ordinary. Or we can weave with silk, gold and silver. In this interlaced tapestry, to live with regret weakens the fabric - degrades the design.

Mipple
It is done. The Mid-South swing is over and here is the scorecard:
Drive Time: 26 hours
Miles: 1,498
Days: 3.5
States: 5
As with any trip of an extended duration, opportunities abound to learn more about yourself, the people you are with and the places you see.
What I learned.....
Arkansas is incredibly beautiful in the Fall.
Mississippi doesn’t have any Tejano music stations.
Texas has the best looking women.
My James Bond trivia is not as good as I imagined.
Did I really even watch the Lord of the Rings?
I spent too much time watching Blazing Saddles and not enough time reading CS Lewis.
Life can change in a moment.
Meat Loaf needs a new name.
Communication is better than silence.
Brooke may know every song – EVERY SONG.
You can eat too much Bar-B-Q.
Yellow lines mean two-way traffic.
You CAN win at slots.
I have no fear of public speaking.
Mississippi tea comes in two flavors – Sweet and Real Sweet.
Louisiana spends very little on roads.
Memphis has good food.
I love bridges.
People in Mississippi need to know that you can eat animals other than catfish.
I would miss Mexican food if I left Texas.
No Regrets.

Embug
Innocent, trusting, little, adorable, loving, cuddly, sweet, dainty, chubby, wide-eyed, beautiful. The newborn girl that slept with pacifiers on her eyes.
Time stole my baby.
Kindhearted, funny, inspiring, dazzling, animated, sneaky, temperamental, spirited, timid, beautiful. The little girl that loved dinosaurs and dogs.
Time stole my child.
Sassy, sincere, organized, smart, tough, stubborn, determined, spoiled, inquisitive, energetic, independent, beautiful. The teenage girl with stars in her eyes.
Time is stealing my young lady.
No Regrets.

Lap Dance
Jack is not an animal lover. He has no pets. In fact, the only photo that exists of me with an animal is from 1972 - little Jack and a duck. Yes, a duck.
So with that preface, let me vent......
I am a proponent of personal choice. Your passions, fetishes and idiosyncrasies are just that - yours. Who am I to judge?
But for heaven's sake, why does a grown man choose to drive around with a little dog on his lap?
I'm not sure if it is DRIVING with a dog on your lap or driving with a DOG on your lap that bothers me. Most likely it is because a GROWN MAN was DRIVING with a DOG on his lap!
I guess it could be worse - it could have been a duck.
No Regrets.

The Bible Agrees
2 Corinthians 7:10
Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
No Regret.
