Vidal's Story
Life
Two weeks after graduation I left for boot camp. DISCHARGED FROM NAVY SIX YEARS LATER. THE NEXT FEW YEARS I WISH I COULD ERASE. ANYWAY I MOVED BACK EAST P.A. N.Y. PARTS OF NEW ENGLAND AND EVENTUALLY MADE MY WAY BACK TO CA. SAN JOSE PALO ALTO FOR TEN YEARS. NOW IM RIGHT BACK IN STOCKTON! STRANGE HOW LIFE IS ONE BIG CIRCLE LEADING YOU RIGHT BACK TO "SOME PLACE SPECIAL.TO THOSE OF YOU WHO REMEMBER ME AS WELL AS THOSE THAT DONT I HOPE LIFE IS WELL FOR YOU. WE MAY HAVE PASSED ONE ANOTHER A MILLION TIMES WITHOUT EVER SAYING A WORD OR EXCHANGING A SMILE ---STRANGE HOW LIFE IS! SO TO AII OF YOU WHO REMEMBER ME AS WELL AS THOSE OF YOU who don't..... HELLO MY NAME IS VIDAL CORTEZ AND IM STILL HERE! TAKE CARE (DAL) December 2006 I still have not returned to the bay!!! I'm there most of the time working (construction) and when it's time to leave for Stockton I feel like I'm leaving home instead of going home. The best thing that developed out of my return to Stockton was meeting a wo...Expand for more
man I care about more than I can understand. She is a very caring and a loving woman. Her beauty is much deeper than I have personally experienced throughout my 50 years of life. Yes, I said 50, so if there is any one person reading this from the c/o 75 you know what 50 means. Anyway, as I was saying, if returning to Stockton was my stepping stone to her than I'm glad I came back. The only drawback is she lives in N.Y. Yeah, I know it sounds mush but if any of you never felt mush during these past 50, Then you're missing out and I hope you find that sweet spot before 2010!!! I'm still here, Vidal (Dal) P.s. All those who were a part of Terri's life, I thank you for gracefully standing aside and allowing me to enjoy the companionship of the most caring, loving woman I have ever met. We both experienced much in life some good some terrible but this was all necessary in order for us to become one. Again THANK YOU one and all!!!! May God bless you as he has blessed me....
