It has been a while since I have written...shows that I am not a disciplined as I'd like to be...Not feeling well...therapy for my arm which is almost 100% now, and temperatures in the high 90's with no air conditioning are all part of the excuse...for which there is no excuse...but lack of discipline...my best find this week is to plan like you will live forever and live like today is your last day....so yes my life is a bit overwhelmed right now as too much is on my calendar..but it is all good stuff.
Being 70 doesn't seem much different then 60 or 16...I am happy and still excited about all the things and people in my life...something still make me sad...and yes I even get mad...
Working in the garden has been very difficult with the heat but it is so lovely and lots of green tomatoes..on each of the plants I planted...and a great herb garden...the sun an heat are good for the garden...weeds too because it has been to hot to pull them..or too buggy..

I think you don't stress about certain things as much as you do when you're 70 (though I could be wrong). The minutiae don't matter as much because you have this deep seated knowledge that things will resolve the way they are supposed to and there's not much you can do about some things anyways.
ReplyDeleteThat, and while I've always known you to be a joyful, lovely person, I think over the past few years, you've found a way to relax a bit and enjoy life. Your joy seems to be what you're doing in the moment rather than what's coming up or what just happened.
It's enviable.
