Day after tomorrow I leave for Switzerland and then on to India.
Hadn't sunk in until now.
My 65th birthday today.
Last year, as I left for the middle east, I phoned mom.
She died since that trip.
Tempus fugit.
With both my parents gone and me being the eldest sibling, goodbyes no longer flow up and down the pyramid, but only down now.
It does make me feel lighter, as if there were nothing between me and the great Upthere.
The Empyrean.
I love the sense of solidity beneath me, family and friends of 65 years.
