“My walls outside must have some flowers,
My walls within must have some books;
A house that’s small; a garden large,
And in it leafy nooks.”

Life was as colorful as a neon carnival when my Uncle Howard was here. With him, there was always a laugh to be found no matter how much crap life dealt out to him. And life dealt him more than his share. When I’m having trouble finding the lights, I think of what he might have to say about any particular thing standing in my way. I hear his voice belting out a favorite show tune or I remember the time he got into a spat with another old guy at a grocery store who’d told Howard to “kiss his ass.” Howard told him to mark a spot, he was “all ass.”

Hey - I just saw the colored lights come on ….. :)

“They came to tell your faults to me, / They named them over one by one; / I laughed aloud when they were done, / I knew them all so well before, / Oh, they were blind, too blind to see / Your faults had made me love you more.” ~ Sara Teasdale
