THE WIDOW SERIES- THE RED EYE

 It has been a way to greet the day for so many years.

Widow Series- The Red Eye

Hearing the plane and then looking at the clock.

530 Am.

The Red Eye from the West flying over the house.

On the flight path to Pearson.

Better than an alarm clock.

Predicable.

Some things don’t change. The Red Eye.

Being on the route. On the fringe. But part of something.

I am in the path of something. The same path. That has not changed.

When so much has changed.

They say life goes on. But the life has changed. It is not a life that you choose.

Wanting the old life is not doable.

So the Red Eye is part of the life goes on. It has not changed.

Needing things that have not changed.

Change is not always good for you. Especially if you did not choose that change.

Sometimes it just sucks.

And the older you get the more change you have to experience. Whether you like it or not.

It sucks.

Not a little but a lot.

Big time.

Being isolated from others because not a couple but a single.

Life goes on as a single. Alone and single. Not a couple but single.

Not liking how life goes on.

So Red Eye fly over every day. Let me know some things have not changed.

Let me know that as life goes on some things are the same.

I need the same.

I need less change.

I want the same. I want some predictability. I want life to stay the same. At least for some time.
