"the love you take is equal to the love you make"


i was thinking about this great line from the beatles and thought well if this is a balance you look for in life then that is not to bad....if you can give out a certain amount of love to people and get back the same amount then i guess that's pretty good....but what if you gave out more love than you received in return.....well then that is pretty good also...so I am determined to give out more love this week than i expect in return (which in my case is not possible.... because everywhere i go people have been ...wonderful to me)... to see if i can turn this sour taste of the economy,the housing industry, the war, the mets,the illness, the bad drivers, the telemarketers, the voice mails, the poor service, the mets (did i mention them already), the people who refuse to hold open a door for you , plastic bags, pepsi, anything that has diet on it, richard simmons, OJ,global warming and the mets..( ok we still have a shot)...we can pay it forward..tighten our belts and plow on .......plow on .......because if you do not plow the fields..nothing grows.....and isn't life just like that....so here to all of u who still read me .....I LOVE YOU...........twice as much as you think.....


those who see me daily know that this was a tough week and the chemo is accumulating in my body and is pulling me in a direction i am not used to .....however i will pull out of it and only have one set of treatment left......yahooooooooo....i will keep you posted ....leukemia fund raise huge success..over $6,000 raised ...love you all .......tom

It was great to see you all at the Fundraiser. Glad it was a success. As for the Mets, maybe next year.
Love,
