Because I Know
I’ve a blood relative I’ve never met....
And because I know we’ve both grown..."ripe"...
Because I know my hour glass is...well...less than half (or
even one-quarter) full...
I wish to fly to Argentina .
To hug a cousin.
To kiss his children.
To hear his music.
To congratulate him
On a life well lived
And praise him for his love of family
And offer him my shoulder to cry on
Because he lost his brother...
(and because his music moves me so...)
I have a cousin named Carlos
And I feel blessed.

So...you are goin? Every connection we feel is a blessing. That it is a relative is an added bonus I suppose, because it can seem more solid. It can seem like a connection before it ever is.
I hope you good - sounds like there are already good things between you; it could only be a great pleasure for you both.
Hope you went. Connections are so important.
What a sweet picture. I bet it would be healing and wonderful for the both of you were you to connect in person.
hey Jonas, stopping by to say hi! How are things in your neck of the woods?
