It seems that tears have filled a great part of my life lately.
The loss of my daughter’s kitten to an accident on Cindyisms.
The story my granddaughter wrote on Degrees of Oddity
The terrible hurricane disaster in Louisiana, Mississippi, and elsewhere.
The moments when I stop to feel the slow loss of mobility.
The struggle my children face to obtain a way to make a decent living.
The emotion that seems to grip my husband in moments of stress,

I guess that tears are the release that old age provides so our minds don’t explode and we can retain what common sense we have survived with!
