Pining for the fjords


Sometimes in life we have an experience that shapes us, becomes an indelible part of who we are. Though we go on to other things, deep inside we are still part of some greater thing wrought by that past experience. At times it saddens me that things change and I can’t help reflect on how much miss it all.

it is interesting to look back and see the things we miss but can not have again.

LL: There have been several phases to my life and I have said good bye to people from each phase. Somehow I never managed to stay in touch.

Keshi: I’ll leave it to you to guess which one was me…

/t.:I think it is tough because I was a lot happier back then. You are correct this is nice, I love visiting with everyone so many different people, different parts of the country/countries – really gives you a better perspective. LL’s avatar makes me laugh (in a nice way) every time I see it .

FS: You are right, of course.

DAK: The military would have to really lower the bar for me to get back in – of course they way things are going you never know.

Who misses it all?

Miss some things from my past, others, not so much. For me, it's people that I miss. Even some that are still in my life, but who live far away.

I miss my son, and my nana the most... But they're both in a much better place now.

flic Call me crazy, but I do - even the SCUD alerts, the smell of treated canvas, MREs, and the electric feeling of the flight line taking a breath before the aircraft spring into the air. I miss being part of a machine created to impose a nation's will.

Jewels That is the toughest of all, those final goodbyes. I have yet to figure out how to let go, perhaps never will.

LP11: "Fly with crows..." Met some wonderful folks back then and miss them terribly. I couldn't do the lifestyle anymore, though.
