Someone once said, “If you want to be a writer, the first sixty years are the hardest.”
When your writing efforts are critiqued, (the truth is, it sometimes feels more like criticism) where does that tightness in the stomach come from? Maybe from hidden memories, back in school when attempting to write something profound? Something that others thought quite ‘immature’? Because it included expressed feelings and depth?

I remember as a youngster, part of our little neighborhood ‘gang’, long before most of you were even born, being once asked to push over a mailbox. It seemed such a major issue at the time, but I can see that the idea was to create myself as ‘one of us’ from the perspective of the other fellows.

I sometimes think that by now, I have reached the pinnacle of my life. I feel I have searched for wisdom that is beyond the normal. I have dedicated considerable time to discover the things that are so very important to my experience of the life that I celebrate.
Sometimes it has seemed like there was sacrifice involved, but mostly it was that I felt a bit tuckered out from time to time. Something always showed up to re-energize me and my projects.

Can you feel it?
There is definitely love in the air! The broadband usage will skyrocket today, that’s for sure. And then there will be the flowers, the cards and the candy as tradition makes its claim on each of us.
So, let’s have this day be one of exquisiteness, succulence, verve……and most important, taking that leap of faith in life and love that we have been rehearsing over and over in our minds! This is the time, finally!
