Some things still elude me.
One would think that after 5o plus years of spending the
holidays together with family, (such as the Thanksgiving that just past), I
would find such a time together as fun, easy and meaningful. I tend to think of
family time together as being the way I picture it being in my mind before
stepping on the plane.
But, most often it is not. Things are not as they should be.
In, “A River Runs
Through It”, Normam Maclean states it this way, “It is those we live with
and love and should know who elude us.” No doubt Norman Maclean wrote these
words thinking of his brother with whom he could not communicate when it came
to discussing the most important issues. When I read those words, I also think
of those family members I love but seldom communicate the way we should.
I do not offer any advice for such matters. I am just sharing this simple fact and wonder
if there is anyone else out there who often, or at least at times, feels the
same way.
And how was the bass fishing in Florida? Well, those large mouth Bass that I usually
find quite easy to catch and should know how to catch, they too, eluded me.
