who? that is the question...

who will take over the position vacated by the late senator? will his wife Vicki, 55, a lawyer herself, will she say yes to cast his votes on the sweeping change or reform in the health care system that is coming to this country before a permanent replacement can be elected to replace him. the gospel by Matthew 25:35 which goes...I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you took me into your home... the family of the late senator, Edward Kennedy, 77, this is their favorite quote in the Bible which they lived by in serving others, rich as they are. public service in its flying colors. the decision of his widow will be very important indeed. married for 17 years, that seems like an eternity here where divorce is just a judge er a lawyer away. what is also interesting in their love story is that the late senator hid their engagement ring in a coral reef for Vicki to go and look for or find, laughs, i think it was in the Caribbean if i remember the story right. oh well. good that it wasn't carried away by the current, laughs. but 17 years of togetherness, very short time compared to a lot of couples out there, but i am pretty sure that there are no regrets :) love is like that...it is not how long you've been together but it is what transpired in those years that counts :)
