Yup! That’s me, at almost 67!
I’ve seen a lot, that’s why I’m a Seenager. I’ve seen it all (and done most of it) and yet, as a Senior, I get to return to the freedoms and joys of the teenage life with none of the repercussions 😉
I’m on my way back to babyhood, eventually, no doubt, with diapers and spoon feeding in sight at some point. I say that flippantly, but I don’t mean to be cruel or unkind.
Life is wonderful and something to be grasped joyfully at whichever point one finds oneself, but it can be cruelly (perhaps “karmically”) retributive, methinks. We have so much to learn in so little time.
Let’s make the best of it, while we can 😉
ENJOY THE MOMENT!
Live life! 🙂

To Be Human
is to fall in love over and over,
to never give up on any of them,
to cry for the inhumanity, and try to
overcome all that surrounds us by creating
a closeness with those in proximity, both
geographical and philosophical. It is to
carry those loves in our heart, flooding our
minds no matter how gone they are. And
to put others’ needs first, understand their
flaws, work on our own so we can be
better helpers. It is to take it all in and
follow our dreams no matter how preposterous;
to pull apart another brown paper bag and
to write it all out, no matter how choppy.
So take my hand and make it all better
before I repeat the painful parts until
I can no longer act. To struggle past
obstructions and obligations, self imposed and
expected; to wallow in joy, build strength and
change what we can for the better. To give.
