Mama Jaworski

April 23, 2025

Everybody has their secret pond. Everybody has their secret bend in the river. Everybody has their off-limits fishing hole where you might get shot at you're are caught trying to cast a line. We dream about these places. We yearn for these places. They are sacred, secret and shared with few. Sometimes with none.

At these aquatic sanctuaries, there is always that one legendary fish that cannot be caught and will probably never be caught. But we keep going, we prattle on. We try and try again and we fail. But we do not stop. We will not stop. That fish will be caught, we tell ourselves. If not in this lifetime, then in the next. If not by you, by one of your children. But he or she better damned well thank you if they do. Ungrateful shits!

It's no Mama Jaworski, but a fine catch nonetheless!
