SATURDAYS IN YOKOHAMA PROMOSIED ALL I COULD EVER ASK OR HOPE FOR: It was the Springtime of Youth...
THERE WAS THE ROMANCE AND THE BEAUTY, THERE WAS A PLAN FOR BEAUTY, ROMANCE AND ART FROM SATURDAY NOON UNTIL SUNDAY EVENING.
THEN, IT WAS BACK TO THE NAVAL AIR STATION FOR ME, AND THE ANTICIPATION AND ANXIETY THAT WAITED THE NEXT WEEKEND.
IT WAS A TOUR OF MAGICAL WEEKENDS THAT LEFT ME WITH MEMORIES I WOULD NEVER TRADE. TIME, HOWEVER, FLYS AND THOSE WEEKENDS ARE GONE FOREVER. THE MEMORIES, HOWEVER, REMAIN, AND THAT IS WHAT MATTERS. TWO ROADS DIVERGED, AND I TOOK ONE WHILE SHE TOOK THE OTHER, AND THAT HAS MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE. EVERY INDIVIDUAL HAS MANY CHAPTERS AND THERE ARE THOSE THAT ARE SHORT AND ONLY LAST FOR A SEASON, CHAPTERS THAT SIMPLY LAUNCH THE LIFETIME AND THEN ARE GONE, LEAVING ONLY THE PLEASANT MEMORIES OF YOUTH TO REFLECT ON AS THE FOLLOWING CHAPTER GROW LONGER AND MORE IN TOUCH WITH OUR FATE, OUR DESTINY. THE JOY OF THE WHOLE LIFETIME MUST BE APPRECIATED BY REVIEWING THE CONTENTS AND DETAILS OF EVERY CHAPTER, NEVER REGRETTING THE SHORTNESS OR SWIFTNESS OF SOME CHAPTERS AND NEVER RESENTING THE LONGER CHAPTERS THAT WERE MEANT TO BE OUR FATE. AS EACH OF LOOK AT OUR LIVES, WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT ALL HAS WORKED OUT EXACTLY AS DESTINY ORDERED. THOSE OF US WHO FOLLOWED OUR DESTINY WILL NEVER FEEL LIKE MISTAKES WERE MADE, BUT SIMPLY COMPREHEND THAT ALL WORKED OUT AS IT WAS MEANT. FOR THAT, WE SHOULD BE THANKFUL FOR EACH CHAPTER AND EACH BLESSING...
