Seek and destroy

I went to the mountains today. My two favorite places on the planet are mountains and beaches. I learned to drive in the mountains, and I still like "straightening the curves" as Waylon Jennings wrote. It was good to have lunch with my wife, mother, sister and brother-in-law. We don't get to do that often enough. ...
My wife and I were flipping through the TV channels (Saturday night TV is the pits I've come to find out), and came upon the ending of "The Truman Show" on TBS. She said this blog reminds her of the movie, what with my life being laid out for all to see. I took this as a positive sign a few minutes later when Jim Carrey's character withstood an assault on his life. His "creator" made the wind blow, the rain pour and he capsized his boat. He tried to kill Truman. Yet Truman survived. His boat hit the end of his "world" and he walked up the steps to a door ~ a door to freedom. His "creator," the monster cancer in my blog, told him he couldn't leave his "world." But Truman said, "In case I don't see you, 'Good afternoon, good evening and good night!' " He then stepped into freedom, leaving his monster behind. One day, I, too, will leave my monster behind. ...
Your prayers, your words of encouragement all contribute to the destruction of this monster. Thank you.
