Bones is amazed by Deb. The fact that as a woman she has managed to carve out a career in a male dominated world simply astounds him. She has managed to secure herself a little piece of the pie. She has a nice house and a great job doing smart stuff with computers.
Bones has spent his life at the beach riding waves and etching out a living from odds and ends. The sad fact is that retirement benefits for living off the grid don't seem to amount to much. He pretty much has nothing of any consequence to show for a lifetime of singing surfing and trying not to mess up the planet.
The other night I heard them talking, and let me tell you these two can talk. Sometimes they both talk at once and still seem to have a conversation. The gist of this exchange was about how Bones felt a little guilty about not having more stuff to share with Deb. Deb it seems is amazed at Bones and how he has two really neat boys to share his life with.
Jesse and Daniel, Bones' kids are like night and day. He loves them with all his might and I love them also. Throw Megan in the mix and he has a lot of energy from some pretty powerful humans in his life. He knows he is lucky. Now he knows that Deb is really happy to share this love.
Deb has provided herself with a good degree of security in the real world. It took a lot of hard work and Bones admires this.
Bones has two wonderful kids that through no doing of his have become amazing adults. Deb has grown to love them in a short time and considers it a privilege to share her life with them. Of course there is the Megulator a force of nature much like Deb.
Simple really, as Meg puts it the two of them together make one whole person.
Thats is the trick for each individual to help the other shine and appreciate who they are.
Next time: Are there universal truths about women and men?
Remember what matters, stuff comes and goes, love remains.
