"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

M in the Land Of BURNING HEAT

I forgot how hot it is in Vegas in the summer.

Holy Mackeral!!

M sang a song about me:

"We love Mommy, yes we do.
We love Mommy, yes we do.
mumble, mumble, when she goes to heaven, mumble, mumble,
we will say:

give her back,
give her back,
give her back."

Should I be fearing the future?
Or being thankful that M will say: "give her back, give her back, give her back"?

I would say focus on the positive, "give her back, give her back, give her back"
