P365 - 2016 - Day 112 - the journey


P365 - 2016 - Day 112 - the journey

I had the day off of work, so My Wonderful Husband and I went for a short run and then out for a yummy lunch - seafood bisque was calling my name..  While we were waiting for our table, we saw that Prince had died.  Now, I know I don't know him personally.  Obviously.  We have also lost people in our lives that are indeed more important to us that we miss every single day.  That goes without saying.  But there is something about a person whose music was the soundtrack to your youth dying that feels...strange to say the least.  It just struck me that way at least... and then when I remembered this lyric of his, it made me think.... we are all just trying to get through this thing called life.  My Wonderful Husband and I had a great lunch together catching up and talking because lately it seems that we go in fifty directions and we need to schedule these "meetings".... we talked about the kids and not about the kids.  We laughed and we just enjoyed the lunch and the company.  And all I could think as the day went on and we went back to our crazy schedule is we are all just trying to get through this thing called life.  It's the journey, not the destination.  Thank you for the reminder Prince..
