Always a Charm

You may not be aware, but you should thank me. I’m totally serious. See, I just re-read what I wrote while at the beach last week. Then I deleted it all. Well, almost all of it. Which is why I should be thanked.

The words felt fine while they were being written. They appeared healthy and happy during re-reads and edits. But then I took a last look. Oh yes, yes I did. And that last look revealed what was really there.

At least I have the remembered pleasure of writing it. It was good while it lasted.

By the by, Happy New Year.
