Life
Today I was pondering the reality of the changing of the seasons. No longer is it light outside when I arrive at my office, in fact, it is now quite dark. Seasons change not only throughout the year but also in our lives. We grow, we mature, and we perceive things from a different angle. Life goes on.
As we age, we gain experience, sometimes even a little wisdom. We learn to see the events around us not only from the framework of emotion but from the history we have lived through. This additional perspective can and usually does take precedence granting us a better understanding of what we are seeing.
Life is that rather interesting thing we do as we travel through time. There are moments that open our eyes, while other times simply seem to be repeats of the same. Today, yesterday, tomorrow, each is but a moment we record. Life is an adventure.
An adventure that we more often control than not, but the moments that we fail to see coming are the moments that stay with us. Those moments are the times from which we determine if a day was good or bad. Though regardless of the tag we placed upon it, it was life.
So, as you progress through life, may I simply say, may it bring you laughter and a smile. May you enjoy the sunrises and the sunsets. And when the unexpected knocks on your door may it too add a fond memory.
May you have an absolutely fabulous day!
Blessings.

Love the book title!! @Ken Boddie It seems a common thread that being young is for the young and those who have matured actually enjoy being mature. Perhaps that should be a topic for those of younger years to ponder. @Franci 🐝Eugenia Hoffman

I agree.
A character in the musical Starlight Express says I am happiest living in the past.
The current state locally, nationwide, and globally makes me glad like you that I have the happiness of several decades of pleasant memories to reflect on.
Hoping as the song goes blue skies are jut around the corner.
Fingers crossed my and your and others reading this Autumn years don't turn into Wintry ones.

I also like to think, Greg, that with age comes a little maturity and happiness and that, overall, all experiences are well received, provided you treat the unexpected as an opportunity rather than a problem. I may be in my autumn years, but I wouldn't be young again for quids. As for life's little surprises, I was in a book store recently (a hobby of mine) when I came across a handy little manual for using crow bars. It was called, “Fifty Ways to Love your Lever”. 🤣😂🤣
