Quote

O make me Thine forever;
And, should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Out live my love to Thee.

P & G makes a move


I live in an amazing place. A place that has an unshakable history like no other while changing at a blink of an eye.

The P & G has moved. Only a few blocks north but no longer is the sign I see as I come out of the subway every day and head to the block I call home. In a place that changes so quickly it is hard to find a sense of home. It is weird how a sign being taken down & moved a few blocks up the island can make me sad. I stopped and watched the workers for a few minutes. I never even went to the P & G but passed those familiar neon bulbs multiple times a day. I guess that is what makes me sad. Something, anything familiar being taken away from my daily routine.

*Note:
This famous bar was in the pilot of "Will & Grace" and also in an episode of "Seinfeld" and has been on this block for several generations.
