I now parent my Father,
only those who have walked their path
can understand.
I hope I am kind enough to my children that they will select a good care facility when my time comes.
Where my Father and I's journey will take us I cannot see now. I can only take one step into the darkness and hope wife and children will follow.
I have know for decades that my children need to see me honor my parents.
I need to honor my children, they are my legacy.
"And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon"
"And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me"
(Harry Chapin)

I love to collect thoughts. I would love to collect some of yours, if they are mindful and respectable.
