I love San Francisco & Beat Generation history, literature & poetry so much that it makes my heart skip a beat every time I think about it. Even when in pandemic, even when I’m exhausted. Always ! And it’s still bothers me that AG & JK correspondence book was missing my last time @ LV library!!! I can’t go back to SF but I go back for the book or order it online ... ♀️
Imagine any problem you have to be a huge, locked door standing in front of you. Now see yourself taking a golden key out of your pocket. You brought the key here with you when you arrived on this planet, but you sometimes forget to use it. See yourself putting it into the keyhole, then watch the door swing open. On the key are inscribed these words, "Unconditional Love."

Yes, it's him again! Which pretty much sums up his general exuberant effect on our household. He's a few weeks shy of being a year old and every bit the teenager.

Though Sam is usually the one in the lead on our walks -- at least on the way out -- on this day as I followed him down this snowy, rutted road, I felt a new poignancy in his hesitant pose. The fog was so dense we could not see what lay ahead and besides that, his vision is getting cloudy in his old age (Sam is a venerable 16 years old.)
I was feeling particularly fragile that day ... it was a down day for me.
My dear friend, Sam . . .
He keeps me company even when I'm not good company.
I imagine Sam will die before I do. I imagine someday I will follow him through the veil.
To whatever is next.
It will be easier knowing he followed that mysterious scent down the road first.
I cherish the companionship of this old dog.

DISCLAIMER: In this writing I talk mostly about how much I love Chloe. If that bores you, (aka. you have a penis?), feel free to talk about these killer tones!
I thought I made it crystal clear to Chloé that I loved her. She wouldn’t actually ever doubt something so fundamental to our relationship, would she?
After all, I do tell Chloé that I love her many times every single day. It’s that kind of love that doesn’t go away and so bona fide in how feels to me that it would be a dirty stinkin’ crime not to let fuckin’ the kid know, right? If I can tell all you assholes how I feel about her, you better snap yourself into a slim jim that I tell her too. I'd be a real fuckup to keep this all a secret.
Well, Chloé recently had an public temper tantrum a month or two ago. After Little Miss Diablo’s cries became whimpers and my yelling subsided, Daddy Dearest sat down next to her bed to talk. I immediately got this question:
“Daddy, do you still love me even though I was bad?”
My jaw almost dropped. This is the first time as I can recall hat she seriously questioned that.
Well of course I made it very known to her that our love never goes away, no. matter. what.
And I will NEVER forget that look on her face after I immediately squashed the tiny bit of doubt that slipped into her tiny mind. Never forget. As soon as the first word of reassurance came out of my mouth, the corners of her mouth went right to the most innocent and happy smile she ever sported. You could just feel the relief as she wiped her eyes that were still wet from crying. Then she moved over to me and hugged me real tight and said something just like this:
“Oh Daddy! Our love never goes away, EVER EVER! Right Daddy?”
But this time when she asked “Right Daddy?”, it was rhetorical, as it always is when she asks that.
You know when thinking about this experience now, I can’t help but think of it as my daughter’s heart somehow fell on the floor. How does a heart leave the body and fall on the floor without a visable open wound you ask? The fuck if I know.
But I seized this moment motherfucker. With her heart so fragile and open as to be just laying on the carpet among her toys, I was given the opportunity to crush it or even kick it if I wanted to prove the point of how mad I was. Or even accidentally step on it? Any wrong move and I would have caused irreplaceable damage to her entire being forever!
Good thing I'm not a fucking dumbshit. I VERY carefully picked it up and placed it back in her chest. I sew up her heart so super tight that there's no way it could fall out again. I locked that heart inside her the way only a strong Daddy can do it. I performed successful open heart surgery on my kid right on the spot.
Are there conditions for the love of your children? If your kid let’s say turned out to be gay when they grew up, would you be okay with such a notion? Or a drug addict? Or in fact just thinks your precious Jesus is a fictional piece of shit so they decided to worship Satan instead.
Could these scenarios or any situation occur that would cause you to turn your back on your children? Is your love truly unconditional? And if not, how do feel about that?

Of course, very few of us think , that a severely handicapped child may suddenly arrive in our ….normal family!!! Things like this, like the “death” theme , are considered as taboos in our …civilized society….
But, THERE IS (!!!) an angelic place on this Earth, where both handicapped children AND the death theme, are repeatedly faced with the utmost unconditional Love and Reverence, FOR FREE !! At the hospice of Helen’s & Douglas’ House of Oxford/ UK !!!
During our Philippe’s short life, this exceptional place has stood both for my Alexandra and Philippe as an open, adorable, true, family home!! What a luck and happiness for me, knowing that my children are taken care with a perfect professional AND an amazing humane way !
Because THIS is what this amazing place does : offering QUALITY OF LIFE to children, with “life-shortening conditions”!!!! Human words do not really describe this angelic place!!
The good-bye bedroom of the just gone to the Other Side children in the Helen’s House hospice, is a normal, joyful , colourful bedroom!! When I entered this bedroom to say good-bye to our darling Philippe, his baby-body was looking like an alive sleeping Philippe in his bed, having his Teddy in his arms ! His face was angelically serene, like the faces of all sleeping children…Only while kissing tenderly his frozen cheeks, I realized that Philippe was not in that lovely little body anymore!! He had already been welcomed at the Other Side, with utmost Love and Reverence!! Little Jesus that he was, having just completed his difficult Task of unconditional Love!!

We are really worried about Bruno. Nothing the vets have tried thus far has been successful in treating the ulcerative colitis. Next step is to see an internist for more in-depth testing and diagnostic measures. He amazes us with his spirit and personality as he's always happy, never seems to be feeling bad, yet is truly sick.
40-something days into his amazing turn around, it seems like the man-dog in him is finally emerging.
A universal love is not only psychologically possible; it is the only complete and final way in which we are able to love. - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

This love of ours has us really worried. After exhaustive testing by an internal medicine specialist, we are no closer to knowing the source of the horrific ulcerative colitis that has been plaguing him since January. We love him so.
You can see these stair were well worn. I love these stairs . This is where my Grandpa would set by me Just me and Grandpa. This is where I learned what Charity was. (Christ like love) From the unconditional love of my Grandpa. These stairs will always be worn in my mind. I will always be grateful for to my Grandpa

Modern heroines: the Greek mother ..
In the purse money scarce. In the evening, before bed, she makes calculations. How to pay the bills . Which expences to cut, reducing the costs more and more .. If she will have a job tomorrow. But In the morning she has a tender hug and a big smile for her family .. And endless love, that no austerity measures can limit . This is the Greek mother today ... A heroine. Happy Mother's day !

Σύγχρονες ηρωίδες: η Ελληνίδα μάνα..
Στο πορτοφόλι τα χρήματα λιγοστά . Το βράδι, πριν κοιμηθεί, κάνει υπολογισμούς. Πως θα πληρώσει τους λογαριασμούς, αν θα έχει αύριο δουλειά.. Περιορίζει τα έξοδα ολοένα και πιο πολύ.. Το πρωί έχει μια τρυφερή αγγαλιά κι ένα χαμόγελο για την οικογένειά της.. Και αστείρευτη αγάπη , που κανένα μέτρο λιτότητας δεν μπορεί να την περιορίσει . Αυτή είναι σήμερα η Ελληνίδα μάνα… Ηρωίδα . Χρόνια Πολλά !
