WHAT'S NEXT?

It's 2:35 in the morning and my mind is so damn busy so sleep is out of the question. I was asked the other day if I had written anything lately and I hadn't, not for over seven years. I'm not sure why that is. It just is. My philosophy has simplified over the years and that can have a lot to do with why. Eleven or twelve years ago when I was writing the most, I had a lot of free time on my hands as well as a lot on my mind. Now, free time is a premium that's become very expensive. Yet, I have wasted a great deal of it. Shame on me!

Life's road has been ladened with a lot of curves and I have had to slow down in order to navigate my ways in a safe manner. I spend more of my time nowadays interacting with people than I have in a very long time. I have become known to some as "Grandpa", which I don't mind really. The point is I have become someone to someone and that's ok too. I wouldn't have it any other way. I have felt love from so many folks and that has been a huge motivator to keep rolling on and that pace has become steady. I have had some peace and that is a very good thing for me. 

But, what's next? I honestly haven't the foggiest idea. I still have wants. I still have needs. I still have dreams. I still have goals. The big question is do I still have time? Again, I haven't the foggiest idea. Motivation has evaporated for some of the goals I had set earlier in my life mainly because I'm just getting too old for this shit. But that doesn't mean I have shelved those goals. I will always have hope. I will always have faith in myself.
