My grandfather and myself looked out toward the small man-made lake in West Texas. We chatted about everything and nothing at the same time.
“Grandson, we’ve got the same time left on this planet.“
Confused by youth, I argued and missed the point for the next hour. Finally resigned, I asked more. What did he mean?
“From now until we die.“
I saw the phrase make it this far. The context hasn’t led me astray yet.
