Reflections in Retirement

by Buzzo
(Ill.)

I often times find myself in reflective moods as I ponder,"just how did I all of a sudden get old?" I look in the mirror and wonder who that is looking back at me.

I realize that I have peaked, and that the "best" is probably over.

I often lament over the fact that I could have done more. Been more involved in life, travelled more, given back to society more, what ever. I guess we come to the plate only once and we can either walk, run, or strike out!

I realize that a life is like a grain of sand that washes up on the beach, there one moment and then washed out to sea never to return!
