Changes


My wife has been at best elusive about our adventures ... lemme clarify

Early June was filled with major reflexions
Last week-end we headed to 'our' yearly district convention in Cornwall
Well wasn't really 'our' assembly was my parents but we tagged along
Was great family time ... I jumped into my uncle Abner shoes
And tried to act not worried when my nephew and niece would run together
Looking like they were gonna both trip on each other and fall
I love how they are able to say my name when most adults can't HA!

As I said before, I was in reflexion. About what?
Our plans as a family (Sandra & I)
Different possibilities were explored ...
Suddenly an idea come so clear to me ... made sense it's gonna be tough
But changes need to be made ... and I'm very excited

Growing up in lower est. Montreal (Hochelaga Maisonneuve)
I sometimes walk on certain streets and remember being a too tall for my age kid
In service with mom around Ontario street, heading to Frontenac Library or Provigo
I still live in that part of town probably due to my childhood memories
And it was hard to let go - I can only imagine how hard it was for our parents
(us ... immigrants' kids) to leave the streets they walked as kids behind
Some never were able to go back ... the memories only they have
Only in the new system they will see them again
But because they had the courage to explore new countries
Their kids were able to have memories of their own

Now with my wife, we will explore new streets
Many cities are in the running we are open minded
Our focus is to make sure that our spiritual food gets to us clearly
And that we can preach to our fellow man regularly

This is in no way a short term plan
Many cities are in the running
Depending on the eagerness of immigration services
Next fall I will start a chain of events which will
Make California my new home ... hopefully
