Out Of Reach
As we began our decent, I was reminded of a thought, which reminded me of Domino, which reminded me we needed a break. We’d been in some difficult situations lately.
Even though we have a relationship, which is, how shall I say, some what strained at times…we do depend on each other. We both needed a break.
Have you ever wanted something that you feel is out of reach? Do you realize patience is a virtue? I have, and I do.
I was thinking of the Harmattan (aka The Doctor), an African wind that is said to blow sand all the way to South America. Some people say that women become increasingly irritable when this wind has been blowing for a while, giving it a bad reputation. Others say that women become increasingly insatiable when experiencing this wind, giving it a good reputation.
I’m betting on number two.
Lately, it was just one damn thing after another, too much blood, a lot of treachery, and a whole lot of Money. It was time to relax.
I decided we were going to fly a hot air balloon across the Continent of Africa.
Domi, what do you say we fly across…
I’ll be damned…she said…"let's go"…before she even knew where we were going.
Now that is my kind of woman. I was thinking, "you choose the latitude."
As always, she had her own plan………

I love this! One thing that glares out at me though is that y'all don't talk about your plans when you're on an adventure together...does this make the adventures more exciting?
Seems to me that if there were a little more communication in the relationship...or trust, but that doesn't seem to be an issue...then things wouldn't seem so hard...
Have you all tried planning an adventure..together..making a plan that incorporates the best of both of you and then relying on each of your abilities to improvise if things go wrong? Not your way, not her way...but together...
Hey, I'll shut up if you want...

Where there is complete trust, plans are unnecessary.
When death is involved, plans change.
Communication through words, whether uttered or drawn, is greatly over-rated.

You've not had one of those conversations that goes .."I thought YOU were going to pick Johnny up from school."
But, very true what you're saying. Thanks for taking the time for what now appears so obvious. There is something to the unrehearsed that brings a truth to any given situation.
