Today was an average day with some, rather notable exceptions. Today I started my regiment of leaving before the bewitching hour of twelve. I decided last week that I needed to adjust my hours to be more “living friendly”. When I came home, Nicole and I both had a workout before sitting down and talking while catching up on some TV. She asked me, out of the blue, about “The Major” who some of you know, was a very dear friend of mine. I was a little shocked how I was affected by the conversation. I mean, he was just a dog, right? After thinking about it though, he was a little more than that, he was someone I raised from beginning to end. I watched his every movement, taught him things, and tell funny stories about his antics through his entire life. It never occurred to me how big that is until tonight. I was also contacted through the social media app Facebook from an old friend in San Diego I became friends with while living on my boat down there for a year or so. He said he had bought my book and was excited to read it. For some reason, this one post, made me very, very happy. He and I were never what you might call close, but, this was like something out of a movie. He was interested in something I made, and that is all I need. Even if he posts a review that say’s less that flattering things, I am proud that he read my story. I am truly humbled. Thank You. #beagoodfriend #aloha #myaumakuabyjasondolson #alohafriday
