Hi Everyone,
Which are you?
#1--Pointee's those that have to have others point out special
specks of life, we don't see, the colors.
#2--Pointer Those that see life filled with specks of life, beauty and
unique colors.
Well, I got an email from someone is a No# 2. Ooops, that doesn't
sound right. He is a pointer in a world filled with Pointee's.
I sent out a simple email about how I felt.
The Pointer Ron Eklof returned an email of observation.
He also blogs poems.
I've included both emails below. Enjoy his colors.

Yesterday was the first day I felt strong.
Up till then it was like a really old man, . Just weak and no energy.
I had to push myself to walk around the house, inside and to get off the couch or bed.
But yesterday I walked around the block once. 1/2 mile--today did it twice...morning and night.
And this afternoon I just spent an hour sitting by the gate, waving to all the cars and Folks driving and walking by.
I am tired but don't have that weak feeling.

Ron's email...

As I read your email a variety of song lyrics sprang up.
Yesterday was the first day I felt strong. Up till then it was like a really old man, . Just weak and no energy.
Young man, get up off your seat. I said, young man....
Village People YMCA... can you hear the song?
I had to push myself to walk around the house, inside and to get off the couch or bed.
Oh, you gotta get up, you gotta get up, you gotta get up in the morning...

But yesterday walked around the block once. 1/2 mile/ today did it twice...morning and night.
I have often walked down this street before, but I never felt so light upon my feet before...

And this afternoon I just spent an hour sitting by the gate, waving to all the cars and Folks driving and walking by
Standing on the corner watching all the Cheez Whiz by...

I am tired but don't have that weak feeling.
Dah, Dah, Dah, Dah, I've got that old feeling...
Not sure where that's from.
Have a good day, unless, of course, you have other plans.
