Today is my brother’s birthday. He died eight years ago at the age of 65. The healthiest, most active person I knew. Tennis several times a week, always going strong, but with a gentle relaxed style. Cancer took him out of the blue, and quickly.
He was a significant part of my motivation to quit my job, for us to sell our house and move to the beach. Free to do as we please. Enjoy life. Work on things that are important to us. We never know how much time we have left.
Yesterday was my birthday. No where in the world I would rather be, then here, right now. Although the weekend was foggy at the beach, it was warm. Fantastic day for those who have to work for a living to get out and enjoy the lake. Pilgrimage to the lighthouse. Home base for those of us who call Grand Haven home.
