What a week!

Heading into 4th of July weekend and I'm a bit of an emotional mess...but THAT is besides the point! I had a relaxing work week with very little to no activity. I guess people were too busy testing out their bbqs in preparation for Independence Day. Taking advantage of the slower times was not difficult. I (of course) went to Chelsea Piers (again) to hit some golf balls. This isn't perfect form, but I'm getting better!



Going into a different mode now, my question of the day is: What is there other than love? We know we have to live a long life, or hope to at least, live a long life with a partner that we love dearly. Beyond that, what else do we know about this mystery person? When I was in college, my brother used to call me the ultimate idealist. I never saw it as a flaw, or as something that would ever change within me. At that point in my life, there was nothing more than love. Now - I'm not sure. There has to be more - mutual respect, family, goals, paths, dreams, achievements, faults, failings... there has to be so much more. And the fact that all of these aspects can come together and become part of one person is scary and confusing to me. It's going to be a thoughtful and hopefully clarifying weekend.
