I remember a time when I would go out and party till wee hours of the morning, go home get a two hour nap and go on with a full day of school and work. But now, OMG!, I ain’t no spring chicken anymore that’s for sure!

First and foremost, I want to thank everyone who commented to my “Reunion” posting below. Have to say it was interesting to read each one of them and get an idea as to how many of you feel about monogamy, which without a doubt is non-existing in today’s society. Times have certainly changed and along with it so has morality. Sadly, we have thrown the baby out with the bath water! Anyway, if this is any help to you, I fully understand how you feel and I can only say I’m sorry that your involvements with relationships haven’t been all that positive, but hope that one day down the road you will find your rainbow and be contently in love without fear or distrust.

Secondly, to answer David’s question. Hm! As to whether or not my relationship is solid can only be left to interpretation. If you’re asking if it’s good, yes! No complaints there! But as for it being solid, let me answer it this way. If your relationship at times feels like it digressing rather than progressing then, no, it is not solid. But then again doesn't everyone's relationship come to a point where it levels off? I would say that my relationship is friendly, if not more brotherly in nature. Therefore, in this respect, yes, my relationship is solid.

As for the posting itself, I was not referring to my particular situation. It simply was my thoughts on how a rather interesting and lengthy conversation had taken place. The debate was highly charged and emotional. However, the final consensus was overwhelmingly agreed that here in Myrtle Beach, monogamy is not a part of most relationships. Sorry you missed it buddy … you would have had a great time.

Thirdly, to my friend Ryan. Buddy, thank you for your kind words. I have though of you often and hope that somewhere down the road our paths will cross again. I too have some regrets, but sometimes the choices we make in life is what we must live with. Anyway, thank you for being who you are.

Today marks four years since John passed and went on home. God I miss the man! Since that day life has certainly changed for me. It’s had its up’s and down’s, it’s tough love, its hard knocks. But as I came into myself I can honestly say, it’s all good. Maybe not as I would like it to be, nonetheless it is well with my soul. Happy birthday John and keep on dancing with them angels brother. So here’s to you and all that you have become.

Well, it’s been a tiring day for me. Getting to bed at 3 am and getting up at 7 am, yeah, its been a long day. With this said, I’m going to cuddle up with Sumo and watch a movie then get some rest. I enjoyed my company last night. It was fun. It was enlightening. And it was good to see and spend time with all that came. But, my tired ass be going to bed, and with this I bid you-all a goodnight.

Until Tomorrow ...

  1. Philip, though I disagree with your answer, I accept it. We have been friends for a long time. I consider you my best friend. But remember, Myrtle Beach is a small town-catch my drift? Just be careful! You are to good of a person to have someone mistreat you in any way shape or form. And if you ever need to talk, I am just a phone call away.

    Your Friend,
    David
