Is there an ache
so strong
my whisper
could control
Is there a moment
so missed
my touch
could waken
Is there a need
so spiritual
my soul
could tame
Is there pain
so real
my love
could fix
Is there an ache
so strong
my whisper
could control
Is there a moment
so missed
my touch
could waken
Is there a need
so spiritual
my soul
could tame
Is there pain
so real
my love
could fix

You do do the coolest things. Now, is that our building in the distance? The one we’re to climb?

No, this is not our building you see back there. That is the Hilton in Clear Lake. Our building is in Galveston, see.

Aha! Galveston. Yes, we don’t want to sneak into a Hilton.

Yes. No, not this Hilton, anyway. They do a lot of meetings in there. A place for engineers to pat themselves on the back when not doing so at NASA. Laughs. Plus, climbing in Galveston is much cooler.

Oh, my goodness, Audrey… This is magnificent. Such philosophical pondering… I have lingered in this one on this Sunday morn… and the answer to all four of the questions you have asked… is… “Yes there is”… even with only your words…

You think so? Thank you so much. I think I’m longing for a great philosophical debate, maybe. Or just sure love conquers all. Both, probably, knowing my heart. Yes, Darlin’, yes there is.. perfect. My words…aw, you’re so kind. If my words help, then I am humbled and relieved.
