So it’s been a while, life has had some hurdles, but time has not stopped or even slowed. Here we are on the other side of whatever and I look around me and go, geesh who’d have thunk it. We made it, more dented, more scared, more wary, and hopefully, just a little more wise.
I started writing this blog, way back when, as a sounding board and vent, for all those things bouncing around in my not so stable noggin and following this extremely long hiatus I wonder if I really have anything to say that requires me to continue to write said blog.
Has the time that has passed jaded me so that I no longer have ranting and ravings of a casual mind, and I’ve simply resigned myself to the fact that things, whatever they are will never change?
Or is it that as I’ve changed the ranting and ravings have become more of a dull roar on the back burner of my feeble mind which is now more regularly taxed with everyday pressing issues – have I simply become a “grown-up” type person who recognizes that there are more important things in the grand scheme.
Or am I just getting old? Hey, it happens, I’m okay with it, gray hairs appear, children feel the need to point them out, music comes on the “oldies” stations and I sing along thinking “hey these aren’t oldies” . . . . my children ask me more, “hey mom in the olden days when you were a kid…” aren’t they sweet.
Whatever the reason, I think that I will continue, if for nothing else then my own feeling of “getting it out there” whatever it is……. A favorite line of mine from You’ve Got Mail sums up my feeling:
“I don’t really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So, good night, dear void.”
That’s all…..for now
