Yesterday was the opening day for public schools in our area. On the way out to the horse lot I met Lido's bus. Without thinking, as I had done for years, I looked up to see if I saw him on the bus. In quicker time than a clock could measure it flashed to me that I would not see him on the bus because he graduated last year.
In even less time I remembered that he did not graduate last year. The mind works so fast that it jumped from habit to hope to cold reality faster than I could blink my eye.
The mind works with unfortunate speed but the heart heals slowly, if at all.
