Hello's

"Hello, again hello!" I sang that song for my father. It is another one of my Neil Diamond favorites. I can remember how important it was to hear my father's voice on the other end of the phone.

Through the years, as my two sons decided to grow up, I have wrapped those words around hearing their voices, too.

There's an excitement about the word "Hello." I think about holidays, and all types of reunions. When calling someone, hearing them say "Hello" makes me sigh. It says, "Oh, good. You are there. I wanted you to be. I needed to speak with you."

"I would give anything to hear my parents say it one more time..."Hello!"

It is the opposite I dread so much.

"I wish you enough "Hello's" to get you through the final "Good-bye."

"He doesn't believe in luck"	"I wish you enough"
"She didn't have to say a word"	"The Heart of New York"
