"I am a quiet wild.
Few will ever see
the madness in me.
Like a wildfire on the
dark side of the moon."
~A. Shea
Looking back over the
years, I can see those
different sides of me . . .
. . . the teenage persona,
the loving mother, the
responsible teacher, the
fun FACer, the risk taker.
So, here I am at a hundred
years old, retired, living
in this tiny, tiny cabin . . .
. . . I'm trying to ascertain
who it is I've landed in my
old age.
I like our lives here in the
woods, the sitting outdoors,
sipping the naughties and
quieting my soul.
I can't help but wonder
if this is all there is and
if indeed, I am content.
Learning to live in the
moment is what I'm up
to now. Not as easy as
it sounds . . .
