Another random thought…

[ Early Morning… mind cleared from a nights sleep ]

Part One…

Guys… getting older… who needs a doctor anyway…

That's a scary thing.... but you know guys... "tough, I can make it, I can do anything, I don't need a doctor" attitude...

hey.... we are all a bit more mortal with each passing day.... as in... closer to the end than the beginning...

I have a hard time with this issue myself, but working on getting better at realizing my mortality.

That big impervious indestructible image we have from youth gets chipped away a bit more with each ongoing ache & pain.

Reality in action... that's a cold shocker.

Part two…

Looking forward to that secluded beach, palm trees, water, sand, and loosing track of what month it even is.

For that matter, a mountain lake, or green valley, or canyon-land would also work just fine.

Don't know when this is going to happen, but it's a nice daydream for now…. little mental escape.

I'm sure there's a deep seeded philosophical meaning to all of this... but I'm sure the answer is surprisingly simple.

Funny... modern man just wants to be on a deserted island and loose all track of time... ( or at least, I think about it )

while historically, at least in the movies, once on the island he is obsessed with keeping track of the passing days.

Odd...

Part Three…

Conclusions… well… that’s something for you to think about. I have mine, and you can have yours, or not, that’s the beauty of it all. Perhaps modern life is just to complicated and complex to want to deal with it 24/7 forever. Sometimes you just want to daydream of what must have been simpler times…. or maybe it’s just an illusion of something that never was or never will be.

I guess you just want to deal with less & less as you get older.

Part Four… Yes… I’m okay… Just philosophically looking at some of life’s moments and the directions our thoughts take us… and yes, you do think and look at things differently as you get older. Same view, slightly different glasses and insight.
