Grandpa and his six-year old grandson were having a lively discussion about television technology, and Grandpa was quite amazed with the young lad’s knowledge.
His grandson continued to rattle off how modern television works with services such as Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and a few others. Grandpa was still plugged into his cable contract, and he was content to stay there. He knew next to nothing about these television streaming services.
As their time was wrapping up, Grandpa remembered something he had stored in the basement. Together, the two of them went down into the drafty and dark subterranean warehouse, which was filled with so many of Grandpa’s treasures. Grandpa enjoyed showing many of them to his grandson.
In the far corner was an old television set. Its time was long gone, but it still owned some real estate in the basement.
Grandpa asked his grandson a question, “Have you ever seen television rabbit ears?”
His grandson replied, “No, how did they work?” Grandpa had ignited his curiosity again.
Reaching into a box behind the ancient TV, Grandpa pulled out the simple looking rabbit ears.
His smiling grandson was ready to see what would happen next. He said, “Wow Grandpa! How did you wear those rabbit ears?”
Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it?

Living on hidden island
Searching through another day
Overwhelming heartache
Waiting, filled with emptiness
Whispering thoughts, every night
Hearing silence once again
Tears drowning in sorrow
Waiting for new direction
Making one more decision
Holding torch, ready to light
Prepared to burn last bridge
Waiting to strike final match
Listening again, a voice
Growing stronger each minute
Conscience stirs from abyss
Waiting, no longer needed
Turning life’s page, new chapter
Leaving island at long last
Light leads to happiness
Revealing brilliant sunrise
