Just a few senior citizen issues .....
Lately I've become so incredibly appreciative of every single day that I awake. I suppose that's what the acknowledgement of aging and little health issues combined with a tendency to worry will do for you.
And while I've always been reflective on life, I've become even more so
At the same time, there's things I used to think of as important, that I no longer place the slightest significance in.
I occasionally worry that my remaining time is short.
If I don't want to go somewhere, I'm not going. I think I've earned that right.
Are these common experiences for others as they grow older? Am I just a grouchy old geezer?
I walked out of the doctor's office the other day after a procedure, convinced that I was dying. What followed was a hell of a drive home. It took an hour or two before I was able to calm down. It wasn't anything I was told but rather what I wasn't told and my interpretation of a lack of information.
Once you've gone through a scare or two, it's not so easy to feel fully at ease.
But then, on the flip side, you become more appreciative of little moments and experiences.
LOL .... "flip side" .... everything eventually finds its way back to vinyl records for me.
To be continued possibly.
