family ties

Substituted writing a letter for my morning journal time today. My mother's younger sister has been hospitalized for a while and is finally in rehab. That finally motivated me to write what was long overdue.

There was always something else to do and yet this has been on my mind for years -- so much so that I could almost believe I've already written. This sounds ominous, but it's not. It's simply another instance of realizing the importance of seizing the moment. She could probably use this "from me to you" special message right now. Hope so.
