It amazes me how some people
seem to be born more mature than others
and wise beyond their young years
even when they are still children
And they know exactly what they want to be
that they achieve when they grow older,
the kid that says he or she wants to be a doctor
and achieves that goal in his or her life
is one of many amazing examples.
I lacked their wisdom and their direction
was misdirected and a late bloomer
didn’t find my way until age fifty.
And wish I could have been like them.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
