Something different
Yesterday on my way to the Met I stopped off in a beautiful church on 5th Av. As I walked in the street noise behind me seemed to drift away, and I felt as though I had left it behind completely. I took a seat in a back pew and took in my surroundings...stained glass windows along the apse...a massive rose window above the alter. Peaceful. I had to meditate and relax...maybe even pray. Overall I have been adjusting well to life here in the city. It gets somewhat lonely at times, but otherwise it is nice. I am trying my best to be social and make friends and actually hang out with them.
I get to go to San Antonio this weekend. I am happy about this. I will get to see my sister, uncles and aunt...and my mother. That is the main reason for which I am going home. She is having brain surgery tomorrow morning. The doctors found a benign tumor on the frontal lobe of her brain. It is actually an easy procedure..or so they say. And she should be fine. It is just nerve racking. She has been in and out of the hospital since mid-August it seems. I am scared to tell you the truth. But I know things will be ok...at least they better be.
