"It is a serious thing just
to be alive on this fresh
morning in this broken
world." ~Mary Oliver
A truth if there ever was
one!!!
Suffering from Seasonal
Affective Disorder, SAD,
I recall when many a time
I wished for death.
But now, in my elder years
and having learned how to
deal with those ghastly
winter months, Mary Oliver
rings true to me.
I'm nigh onto a 100 years
old, and we're living in very
difficult political times. Still,
when I awake to yet another
day, I am grateful beyond
measure!
Look to Mother Nature, look
to family, love and friendship.
Look to that odd moment of
joy in dark times. And, naught
wrong with looking back to
fave memories.'Tis important
to honor these things!
Leave the news, the papers,
the comments if they upset
you. They're just a small part
of this one and glorious life.
Let's live!
