... this baseball uniform actually fit! Now, you can see that the only thing allowing me to keep the pants on was to use a belt at Halloween.
... I had hair.
... I had many friends and I had my parents ... but I still felt lonely in some ways.
Who needs to be young? I am happy right as I am.
This topic was brought to us by the ever youngun, Grannymar! May her eternal youth serve her well for a long time!
My God Conrad, you gave a light induced "headache" with that head shot.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you but no way would my baseball uni fit - I still have hair and I am often amazed how lonely I feel with this pack of humanity that surrounds me - something that has carried over from my youth
ReplyDeleteI adapted to my situation with each stage in life. After the last fifteen and a half years living alone, I have learned not to be lonely. I have to admit the in the past couple of months since I have been told not to drive, it has proved more difficult. Not to worry, it won't beat me.
ReplyDeleteI suffer from what some dear friends call arrested development. That despite loss of hair, additional love handles and beer belly plus extra spare parts. I would rather not adjust and be happy being an arrested growth person.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, that sense of well being only comes with age. :)

ReplyDeleteI am good for camping, though. We don't need a lantern.
@shackman
ReplyDeleteThat loneliness is not an inconsiderable burden.
@Grannymar
ReplyDeleteYour courage is such an abiding part of what you are. I sense it may be time to share on the side, though.
@Rummuser
ReplyDeleteYou always seek peace and contentment in your present. What a marvelous way to be!
@Delirious
ReplyDeleteUsually true. In my case, it came with sharing with my mate ... which, of course, came with aging. :)
You look great, Fossil. And I'm with ya about being young.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to GrannyMar; I was stuck there for four months a while back and it was tough.
Although I lost my beloved David, I never feel lonely … it is one of the advantages of being a loner.

ReplyDeleteI think what helps you to not be lonely is that you had David with you in the first place. I was lonely when I had no mate yet to create memories with.
