Finding my way in the "new normal"

Life is really changing quickly lately.

Because I find myself alone with my thoughts so often now, I have experienced many emotions daily.

I spend time remembering.

I spend time pondering.

I consider planning,

 but have decided that is truly a waste of my time,

for I know I am not able to carry out most of my plans.

I spend a lot of time praying.

I spend time wondering.

I hope.

I have loved and lost.

I love and know I will lose until finally I am the one to go home.

I enjoy learning and seek new opportunities to experience.

I have enjoyed traveling many distances in recent years.

I don't laugh enough.

I cry, but too often try to stop the healing tears.

I serve.

I try to acknowledge service.

Life is changing fast

and

I know I am on "borrowed time".

I don't know when my last moment will be,

but I am not afraid.

That is the greatest blessing in my life;

knowing where I came from and where I am going.

I thank God for all who are willing to share this journey with me.
