My first true love lasted about four and a half years. Even though I thought it would be the rest of my life. But the relationship didn’t endure a separation that happened when I moved to Texas to be there for my dad who was suffering from terminal kidney failure. So much for the first true love. And after “getting over” it, I discovered … Read the rest…

35 years ago, today. That’s when my beautiful Elgielene became my wife. We zoomed up high in the Denver, Colorado skyline (for real) and shared our vows to stay together through come-what-may.

It’s only natural to ask, I suppose, since it’s not something you can see, smell, hear, taste, or hold in your hand. What do I mean, when I say what is love…not a glove?
