Phases and Changes
Life is always full of changes. Somebody with grey hair and big eyebrows long ago in the past said "Change is the one thing constant."
I came back home today. Every trip home has its own bits and pieces of change. The house looks different. The furniture has been rearranged. Where is the toliet paper? Our new kitchen is a puzzle to me. I open every drawer and cabinet before I cook anything so I will know where things are located. I try to put things back in their place, but often end up placing things on the kitchen table so somebody else can put it back.
Today I experienced some new change. This change hit my stomach. I went to eat some good BBQ pork at my favorite BBQ restaurant.
Much to my surprise and sadness there was a sign on the door which read as an obiturary. After 18 years of service, the doors were closed never to open again. No more pork, no more chicken, no more turkey, no more cole slaw, and no more texas toast. My heart and stomach will miss the food.
BBQ is special. The sauce is important too. I will now start a journey to find a place to fill the void in my heart and stomach. I hope I can find a place that can fill this void in my life.
