Music and Friends

Saturday I met a friend I hadn't seen in several years. We used to play music together. He had flown into Denver from San Francisco to attend a conference sponsored by The American Recorder Society and Regis University. Although I chose not to participate in any classes, we ate dinner together and went to the faculty concert. It was fun.
I marveled at how age and time and experience had improved him (as it does with so many people I've known). It's as if he grew into himself and actually liked the fit. I was happy for him and happy for myself for knowing him.
When I returned home satiated from music and merrymaking, I discovered the movie Blade Runner was on BRAVO. What a perfect ending to a delightful day. I just had to stay up for the ending, especially to hear Rutger Hauer's character Roy say "I've seen things...and it will all be lost, like tears in the rain"."Time to die." Afterall no one knows how much time anyone has.
