GOOD-BYE KEN ROBERTS


GOOD-BYE KEN ROBERTS



JOURNAL ENTRY, 13/04/2016. 07L08 hrs., PDT, Wednesday, my place, 11°C drizzle MOOD 40/60

Ken leaves to morrow with his youngest daughter Meagan in attendance to begin a new chapter in his life in the wilds of Windsor Ontario. I will probably never see him again in the flesh
so the parting is kind of a slow death as he rarely answers his e mails.

Made the mistake of turning on the TV to CBC and got another dose of the tragedy of indigenous suicide rates in northern reserves and the next famine in Ethiopia where entire populations rely solely on food aid from the outside world during yet another long sustained drought.

It seems that when you are having a bad day emotionally nothing works the way it should.

On the up side I now have 22 RSVPs for the birthday party.
