like it or not,
there are times in our lives
when we have to do things 
that brings us out of where we are
and into something new
and the world will still turn
whether we want it to or not
it is all that simple

good morning,

O hate when this happens, but I've been called for jury duty for the week of April 13. needless to say, once I tell the powers that be about all of this, they just might not be very pleased with the whole idea but what else can I do, I have to answer the summons and report when and if I am told to, whether I like it or not.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

for me,
coffee
jazz
a few
friends
is sometimes
the only thing
that I will
ever need 

good morning,

with every passing day, I am becoming more and more convinced that jazz and classical music just might be the only legitimate musical forms left. the rest of what is being called music these days I have no use for at all. granted, what you listen to is your own business, but some of the stuff that is being passed off as music, leave me more than just a little flat. as for myself, I will rather stay with what I know. I guess that means that I must be getting old.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

sometimes,
the only thing that gets me feeling better about myself
is some hot coffee
and some jazz to make it all really again
it is one of the few things that I have in my life,
that I actually understand
ask me to explain it
and the only thing that I can say is
you either get it
or you don't

good morning,

well, one of the things that I think that I am sure of is that there are times when I feel that the music affects my mood, or at least that I believe that it does. As most of you know, if not all of you know that I am a jazz head who also likes classical, and it seems that I have been getting away from that a little lately, so I need to stay close to that, because I do not like the way that it was making me feel, though there have been times when I have felt worse, for other reasons, so the only thing that I can do right now is to just go with it if it is working. it's all cool when you groove to the sounds of some good tunes. whether it is west coast cool or something long hair. It's all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

there have been periods in my life
when life has been kind
at other periods
life has not been so kind
but no matter where I am at
life shows no favorites
and takes us to the same end

good morning,

sometimes the only thing that I can do right now is to just keep on doing whatever it is that I am trying to get done here, whether it be for the good or for the bad, it is what I do and there is nothing else out there that really interests me or that I am any good at, at all. with that said, I pray that you are well and that I will be hearing from you soon. It is still good. 

So it goes. Press on regardless.


Faithfully Yours,

words can wound
words can heal
if you believe it

good morning,

someday soon I will be writing all of you to tell you that I have just hit the lottery and that I will soon be starting my new life, but unfortunately, that day is not today. 

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee
