Aloha

Aloha my little friend, or should that be petite friend. Good word friend - you once wanted me to stay your friend. I offered of course and again recently. What with all the water that has passed under the bridge and all, I have no interest beyond a little old fashioned friendship.

You might be glad of it - you never know.

I am sure you have been following me, so just to let you know we are back on Oahu now. Next stop is Brisbane on Friday. We are leaving the 650 (our jet) here and will fly back to Honolulu in November. I know I have left you way behind in life's stakes, but I still think of you and the life you might have had. There was never any need to think of your material life as inferior - it doesn't work like that. I knew you did have those thoughts.

Following me must be a bit like following a dream, but that dream could have been reality, for you. You passed it by for whatever reason, but it was a mistake and I know that you realize that. I suspect that you have rationalized everything in your mind so that you can live within the parameters of what you have chosen and not think about what might have been. Although maybe in the period between closing your eyes and sleep you do just think about what your could have been.

Glancing at your file I see I was joining the Navy when you had just finished primary school. Always behind the curve aren't you and will never catch up, I guess. You could have done of course. Always open to talking, catching up in that way, but I doubt you have the courage.

Well that's all for now. Things to do and places to go....weather is great here and looks great in Oz

G'day
