Here’s an update for “MOM!”

Sep 28th Here’s an update for “MOM!”

One thing that I wish everyone would do more – is really communicate with family members – way before our “cut off” date – here on earth? Once someone is gone – there is a lot of unfinished business – that someone needs an idea of how to continue for the best results – for those left behind. We all have “PLANS” – working on “PROJECTS” and some even have “BIG DEALS” – that need closing, – but how?

One sample of what I am taking about – take Daddy’s case. He was in the lending of money to some of the neighbors and even his land-lord. When we got a truck and move all of his earthly possessions – those things – that were worth giving to someone – and also personal papers and items that someone might want as mementos – boxes he had taped shut – and even wallets – some currently used and then some with papers?

The wallets with the papers – did not seem to me, to be anything that needed to be checked out – so I put this job off for several months. But, one afternoon – when I started going through this one wallet – unfolding papers that were stapled together – found that Daddy was owed quite a bit of money by some friends that lived in his neighborhood! Well, at this point – what could I do? The funeral was over and no one visiting, volunteer any information – that they would be paying back and or returning to “Daddy’s” family – anything that they owed him – nothing came up!

So, I just had to check this off – that those that owed Daddy – would forever remember to have a very good word for him – since they never had to repay anything that they borrowed? That’s a terrifically good “DEAL” for all those who are slow to repay their debts – and then the “LENDER” is good enough to die and never let anyone know – that he is owed – anything – the slate if wipe clean for all the borrowers!

As for you, MOM – I still have lots of your papers and there is a lot of your writing in shorthand. Of course – you did tell me that the “Shorthand” class you were in was the last of “PITMAN TRAINING” and the following year at school- they started teaching “GREGG SHORTHAND” – so here I am – lots of stuff looks interesting because – all those that use shorthand – always write a word or two out – that – and I’m guessing – shorthand for may not make any sense when deciphering, later?

Only me, no one else, in this whole world would save your “School Books” for the “PITTMAN Course” – thinking that maybe – just maybe – someday , I would be able to teach, your shorthand course to myself and then be able to read lots of stuff – that has been kept secret for all these many years! All though – there just could be something very valuable in all those papers – some special information – something that the world may need to know – even something to change all of history?

When you stop to think about all the stuff – we leave behind to our families and then – we do not take time to leave important instructions – it’s like getting a “Christmas Gift” – and written on the “GIFT TAG” is – “Instructions Not Included!” “What can we do – to correct – this situation???”
