Yesterday, watching a neighbor dog run circles around the yard
realizing he had no idea how to act his age
in the grocery store parking lot I see groups of senior citizens
bundled up for the cold, shuffling their feet- barely moving
Am I in the middle ?
not young enough to run for no reason
also not so old that I cannot imagine it ?
What is the point when you reconsider?
when you stop making choices on impulse,
choosing instead to make your decisions based on safety
My uncle told me he stopped playing golf when he turned 50
"My heart wasn't in it anymore"
if there a worse thing ?
to give up living while still alive
.
thanks to SM for the challenge
