Lifeline

Linear?
I think not;
Up, down around

Curlicues wrap around 
Upon themselves.
Life is never a straight line


And not what you expect.
Some good, some bad
But always worth it.

Balancing Act

Work is fun until it is not.  That is why I retired-it wasn't fun anymore.  Now I face endless days of organization meetings and doctor appointments.  Life has got to be better.  Did work add a dimension to my life that I no longer have?  Was I more structured?  I kinda knew what I needed to do and now I am at loose ends.

Maybe I need to write a novel or a children's book.  Paint a picture?  Take up photography, pottery, cooking or gardening?  Make my very existence on this planet matter.  I have two children and one grand child.  I have been married 46 years.  That must account for something.  I have joined DAR and graduated from a Master Gardener course.  Now what?  Just continue to stumble?  Im a little long in the tooth to take up medicine or psychiatry.  Maybe I need a Little help from my friends.
