Good morning,
It's a Monday morning. A new start and a new adventure. For the first time in nearly 60 years I have no more "have to" do lists, work, or other requirements.
I am retired!!!
Retired from the demands and stresses of a "job". Retired from the many ridiculous situations and circumstances, the unfairnesses of life, the prejudice of employers and bosses, the discrimination of societies and cultures.
I am finally FREE!
Free to do, think, say, write, worship, not worship, seek and accept, feel and be happy, ultimately be myself in any given moment.
Oh man it's been a long, often painful and sometimes devastating journey. In between there have been moments of happiness and joy, of exhilaration and incandescent bursts of total being, and moments of great humility and humiliation.
Now, onward and to infinity and beyond!
