It’s. Not enough of. Where did it go. In my day. Last words of so many sayings is time. When a person gets where I am at, and I knew damn well I would get here if something didn’t kill me first, it is rather like I imagine staring into the muzzle of a gun might be. Don’t for one minute think I am complaining as I can recall a thousand things that should have stopped me from getting here. Circumstance, don’t you just love circumstance?
The time I have been given is a time that I chose to ask for and give forgiveness. There is nothing that takes the weight off better than not carrying grudges and forgiving those who have wronged a person. It goes hand in hand with thanking your spouse for what they do as often as possible. Thank you for doing that! It seems rudimentary but often times it is as though a person expected another person to do something nice, or loving, and act like it was expected. We deserve nothing without thanks for what ever has been given freely. Screw expectations as love demands consideration of the partner. High horses don’t win. They devolve.
I wanted to write this as this is a thing my wife and I have done for many years and is directly the reason that we are so close, even in our old age. Fifty years next year, God willing.
I suppose that I am a simple man in essence. I really don’t want very much and never have. After combat I got wilder than I had ever been and paid a horrible price for that wildness, deservedly so but I finally got over it some decades ago now. Harm done is harm repaired and that is how I live my life, which is paltry compared to others, but enjoyable to me. Simplicity wns the race, always.
