Fly Away...

This is August, the Month of Exodus, the Leaving. Countless friends will be flying off for higher lands of learning (or lands of higher learning?) and I will miss them. And all I can say is take care! And have fun!

And then I get a little envious, trapped on the wrong side of the looking glass--the side that's behind, instead of in front of, the mirror.

From the lands of the Living, teach me, my friends, that I of the Dead may learn. And perhaps rise too, one day.
