A-mazing

By midnight, Sam and i got to Hal's to pick up the LFR fuel truck Sam left there this afternoon. After dumping a few gallons of gas in the red Ford dualie that we drove there, I looked up at the sky. And I saw them-the Northern lights. This was a real display that spanned a good fragment of the blackness above. They were white but radiant, the dazzling, dancing spectacle that I wanted so much to see before I had to leave. I was reminded too of the first time i saw them in reality. It was when Daisy [sorry, here I go again] and i were walking the runway at 1:30 at night after i had just told her that i like her and am helplessly infatuated by her. That was over a month ago, and I had not seen them since then, until tonight. It was very unusual for Daisy and I to have seen them so early in the year, but now i speculate of whether it were a miracle of creation God showed us that night to reveal a message.
The loneliness, I am glad but careful (lest I be tempted during my lowered defenses) to report, is subsiding. I appreciate what Angela took time to write to me today. "This is a season that God is allowing you to experience. Keep looking to Him for your primary comfort." Out of her kindness, she said that she were here with me. I would be happier if she were, but as she said, I need to go through this season. I'm reminiscing now about the last day I saw her. We had a terrific ride into Lake Hood, and at the airport she walked beside and hooked my arm with hers and said, "you will escort me to the gate." After a few final and heartfelt words, we parted ways. I watched her until she disappeared down the hallway. What a precious memory that is.
Anyway...
The skies dropped rain on us for most of the day. And guess who was not here.
okay, i'll quit that now. Goodnight.
