Being gone for a few years entirely opens our eyes to the passage of time while I am back here going to see the states. People have also died, gotten old, moved on, and it entirely is clear to see when you are away for large chunks of time appreciate I was. I am planning on coming back to visit once every various weeks so that I can fasten with family and friends more often and not lose touch. I have a local business neighbor who died while I was away and I will never get to talk with him again, which is also entirely sad because both of us had an argument that I wanted to smooth out between us. She taught myself and others a lot about the heating and A/C industry and how to service heating systems and cooling systems and I wanted to tell him how much I appreciate everything she did for myself and others over the years, but I will never get to tell him anything now. I guess this teaches myself and others a lesson to not hold grudges with people because you never suppose when they won’t be around anymore to make things better. Maybe I’ll go visit the local businesses, where our neighbor worked, to talk to the other employees about him and get some closure as to why she died so abruptly before I had an opportunity to talk to him. I may buy some HEPA filters from them to support her business and workers instead of buying it online. I appreciate what I was planning on doing. Life has a way of teaching us strenuous lessons I guess.
