I dont know if you remember that fall day when it rained those - TopicsExpress



          

I dont know if you remember that fall day when it rained those large heavy warm drops of rain but we went ahead with a walk anyway. As we strolled under the Elms and a variety of Maples we pointed out the different characteristics of the various elaborate homes that we liked the most. We began to pass a vacant lot when you stopped and just stared. Finally I asked if you were ok and you replied, "there it is, my dream home!" That night we watched movies, talking over many of them while we had a friendly debate about various social issues but when the conversation leaned toward politics I deferred. You stood, standing in front of the blue screen of the tv, pushed the power button before walking over and opening the door to the courtyard. As you stepped out you nonchalantly glanced back over your shoulder and whispered something. It was so low the words barely passed your lips and then you proceeded to go sit by the fountain. I always wondered what you had said. This morning, as I sit with my coffee I keep thinking of moments like those that I cherish. I dont know if its because they have a hint of mystery or because in each of those moments of my life a secret was revealed. Secrets, I have learned, can be the most valuable and powerful asset a person can possess. It is also in the handling of those secrets are our characters truely tested.
