The Day

Minds are incredible things. No two are the same, how they calculate, how they create, how they convolute.  A great example of this is the difference between my wife and myself.

The mind of my wife is a steel trap logging times, dates and all kinds of information.  This is an incredible blessing giving me a wealth of information to draw on.  However, you understand, the great curse because of my shortcomings.  Though they fade quickly in my minds eye they are all stored  succinctly in this wonderful filing system.  My mind, on the other hand, is a steel sieve.  Information circles in the windy vortex till it escapes....somewhere.  Dates, details and specifics don't register well with me.  I'm an idea man.

You may shake your head and say, "poor soul", but I tell you, "worry not."  This isn't as big of a dilemma to me as it is to those who deal with me on a consistent basis.  What am I talking about you may think. A more specific example may help.

The steel trap; Feb. 14, 2013....Valentine's Day....chocolates...flowers...arrows....hearts.

The steel sieve;  Karen what would I do without you...whenever. You are the woman I love...so much.  You have stuck with me since....for so long.  Can any day be more special than any other? 

I love you always.

Happy.....Day
