SHORT LIST OR  LONG LIST?

I know I’m on various peoples long list.

They e-mail me once and a while. They

even know my name. Yet it’s those people

who have me on their short list that I am

forced to pay attention to - to make sure

I keep them on my short list as well.

I have never forgotten Jess Lair’s comment that if you have 5 friends in a life time - pinch yourself - you’re lucky - count yourself blessed.

Okay, I have to know those who touch the

tassel on my cloak and energy flows - 

with them I have a connection - a history - memories.

To forget them - too often - I might fall off their short  list and end up on their other list. Now that I don’t want to happen and that tells me who we really are - and who’s who on who’s list? Thank you friends. Thank you God!
