Bridges

"When you're weary, feeling small . . ." Paul Simon says it best.

Everyone needs bridges to get them through life.

Actually, most of us need several because it is just too much for one person.

Sometimes we need a sweet little curved wooden one arching over those bubbling streams other folk like to wade into,

And sometimes we need a huge metal one over the lava pits to hell that are becoming more and more common in today's world.

I have a whole repertoire of bridges: writing, poetry, music, persistence, to supplement Bestest and my son who are my most reliable.

They are what make life bearable.
