All things on earth shall pass...
I can not for the life of me remember who sang this song, but for some reason I'm thinking about it...
All things on earth shall pass,
under the sky.
Music alone shall live,
music alone shall live,
music alone shall live,
and never die.
There are many endings going on in my life right now, and some that I can not describe now. No one is dying or anything, just phases in my life that are ending, and will never come again. Today's ending:
I have spoken about selling the Elks hall a few times in the past. Well, we had sold it, and ownership transferred on the 31st of March, but I negotiated to be able to clean out the hall until April 30th. Well, today is that day. We had it all cleaned out last weekend, but tonite I headed over there to have one last beer with the old girl, and just before the door closed for me the last time, I told her thank you. I am certain that with this hall gone, and with one of the most dedicated members leaving this summer, this lodge will fold soon. I think that although the hall should not have been the only thing really holding us together, it was. I guess the bright side of it all will be that I will have a little more time to volunteer with another organization, and I have already chosen which it will be. Thompson Humane Society, as if anyone would be surprised with that choice. Regardless, I am sad to see this phase of my life end. My Elks brothers were are great bunch of guys, a bunch of big brothers or dads to me, and I love each and every one of them. I hope to be able to continue our friendships into the future. *sigh* I wish it wasn't this way. C'est la vie though.
That's about all I feel like saying tonite. Life will go on, and in the end, maybe music will be the only thing left when there is nothing else.
Over and Out.
