I figured by the time I was 53 years old, I'd have life all figured out. I would have lived long enough to learn the lessons I needed to be happy.
My MOM did.
By the time she was 53 she had been teaching for 20 years and had begun to travel the world. Well... I haven't learned those lessons. I was a little perturbed with myself, if MOM did,
what's wrong with me?
Well, I asked MOM.
She laughed.
She said that she was happy because she was still learning what it takes to be happy.
It was a journey, not a destination.
So I'm OK then.
I am still on my journey and there is hope.
