Just as I ring in a New Year, I am also celebrating the end of another year with a birthday....yep another year, past 40 to 41.....WOW....41....sorry I had to say it again, for I almost don't believe it........well at least I am out of the valley, now where to go from here?..........I guess I should just jump off the rim's edge and see where that takes me. I thought by the time I hit 40 I would have it all figured out.......really......I mean who knew life could throw such curve balls? I should have known....I should have seen it coming...I mean big, hard white balls are usually pretty easy to pick off.....but smack, I guess I didn't have my bat ready. My initial inclination is to pack it all in and leave the field, but that little fighter in me keeps telling me to pick up my bat and bring it on home, for posterity sake. So as I await to wake tomorrow morning and begin another whole new year.....I am taking my glove to bed with me....just in case of any more flying balls.
They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger? Who said that? My mother? your mother? Mother's everywhere......I guess they should know....if anyone would know it has to be a mother. A mother who's been there and done that.....all I know is that I hope when my children turn 40 I am still here to tell them....."What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger"...........Oh ya, and "Time heals all wounds." They say that too, don't they?
Words of wisdom I can literally pass on to my own.........for I am not dead and with enough time I will finally have it all figured out, won't I? Let's say by 60......I'll get back to you on that...and with all that said I have one more thing to say......Happy Birthday! One more for the long and winding road...............Namaste
