I write, therefore I happy.
Where were you on
November 22nd, 1963,
on September 11, 2001,
on February 2nd, 2020?
On February 2nd, 2020,
the Kansas City Chiefs win
the Super Bowl for the first
time in 50 Years.
It was 10 days before the
wildest stock market ride
in history would start.
I was in my Library arranging words
in patterns on my screen.
On that date; 02/02/2020 and
on that Sunday, occurred a
numerical oddity that does
not happen often.
02/02/2020 is a numerical
palidrome.
Reading from left to right or
right to left, the pattern
is the same.
The last one occurred on
11/11/1111
In the year 1111, King Henry V
was crowned as Holy Roman
Emperor.
The next palidrome will be on
03/03/3030, 04/04/4040
05/05/5050 and so on.
A rarity that will occur seven
more times for those using
the Gregorian Calendar.
I did not have a clue that in the
year 2020 the world would be
jolted by another rarity and
sent to another place?
Covid - 19
As I looked around and observed
people who felt like a fish caught
by a filament barely seen, being
dragged from a world they knew,
to an unsafe world of terror.
Being frightened with fear,
flopping around like a fish out of
water, desperately seeking a
return to normalcy.
They flipped and flopped.
Shamans would appear on screen,
guiding them into shamanistic
rituals of survival that would
keep them safe from humanity's
certain fate.
The promise was sold.
The hope was hyped.
Some did not listen.
The dedicated fearless souls
climbed the ramparts to shake
their fists at the incoming foe.
Cursing and resisting the
mighty winds that blue.
Each had arrived to their
appointed place in time.
Each performing the duties
they trained for, continuing
the struggle, knowing there
is another side, reaching for
the end, they moved forward.
I in the safety of my shelter
dare to record it all in
written form.
As a writer, I observe.
The life I experience, the life
I see around me, becomes
the foundation of my work.
The people I meet are my
Author Guides.
They trust me with their
memories to hold and
preserve.
The universe has an infinite
amount of memories that
live in the Book of Legacy.
More than a Zillion memories.
There is one element that the
Universe does not abundantly
provide. . . . .
T I M E .
As you read my material,
I know that the Time
allotted to read is limited.
I will strive to make your
reading time a quick snack,
not a three course meal.
That is my hope.
That is my goal.
