It’s called life as it is ! 1/17/24

Peace comes to those of us, who age and take loses along the way. peace comes mentally for us, and in our day to day life. It doesn’t mean we are happy, it doesn’t mean we are content. It just means we avoid trouble, because we are smart. But, it doesn’t mean we like being alone, it means we are adult enough to understand why we are and mature enough to accept it.
Personally, I did my things in life, I accomplished what I wanted.
I helped my family as a kid, I helped my friends as a kid. As I grew I served my country for 16 years in three branches of service. I was married twice once for 12 years and the second for twenty eight. Two daughters I have from my first marriage, and now four grandchildren too. I did right by my wife who passed in 2021, I hospiced her and took care of her for a 16 year cancer battle.
Never claimed to be perfect, or the best looking, or the funniest or anything else, just me. I now go day by day, do what I must to get to doctors, dentists, groceries or stores. I walk malls and outside, build puzzles, use my computers and chat online, play xbox now and then, and read. Life is a slow process daily now, and I miss my wife and life I once had. What more is there to say, I get told to go out, meet new people, go to bars or do things, I actually have no motovation to do so, nor, do I ever think, I shall. I think I have reached a point where living has turned to existing, and thats it. So,it is now day by day, and thats it.
I pay my bills, I am not a burden to anyone and i refuse to be, nor would I impose on anyone for any reason. I don’t ask for pity or anyone to feel sorry for me either, I have had a good life. It is just that at this point in time, it is running down, as I turn 68 in a few days. Acceptance of what is, is not surrendering, it’s knowing where you are at and living with it, is all. It’s called life as it is !
