Fading away. And getting older... by the minute. Rving friends from the past 16 years are slowly and increasingly fading away. Some have passed away, and the rest are scattered to the wind across the country. Scattered into new lives, new priorities, new life situations. New situations that put their new life to the forefront... and past relationships from rving years are slipping into the realm of past memories. As time passes, memories become more distant. We all drift more and more apart as our new day to day life fills our day & thoughts. In no small part, Facebook loosing its appeal to many, has diminished the most easy way of keeping in touch. I'm not much for phone calls which adds to the situation. Do people still write letters? Even to some degree, family drifts away, wrapped up in their everyday... day to day life. I guess its only natural to sometimes feel disconnected from those that were once close. Now, somewhat isolated.... loosing touch. I guess this is even more progressive the older you get. Connections with others fade ... Memories fade... physical & emotional isolation increases. Even the desire to be as social as you once were, decreases. And it doesn't even seem to bother you until you look back to think about what is gone... As if its a natural part of getting old... and you are powerless to change what is happening. So where is all this leading? Idoeno... The inevitable. Strong self worth and independence of mind keeps me above board... but reality of it all does come with some concerns for the future.
Thank goodness for good health and a clear mind. But I have noticed its very easy to get side tracked... oh look... squirrel. What was I saying? On the plus side... nature has become more enjoyable and relaxing. Y'all have a good day. Enjoy the coffee... and throw away that sugar free bran muffin. Oh look, chocolate!
Should I shout... "hello"... or "hey, I'm still alive"? Perhaps I've got too much time on my hands... or have gotten too complacent. So its on me too. Watching the birds has gotten to be too much of a past time. The to do list keeps getting longer because... There's always tomorrow, or next week, or next month. Think I'll have another coffee and enjoy the breeze... ahhhhh. I feel better now. Didn't truly solve anything today... except to elevate my emotional wellbeing. Is it nap time yet? Later!
Again... Y'all have a great day. Oh look... another squirrel.
