Living to the utmost.

I’m a better thinker at age 78. Than I was as a young man. Because I have more experience. And a bigger vocabulary. Therefore, I can use more and better words. In expressing my thoughts. So far, I’ve had a lucky life. Good health. No apparent signs of dementia. Yet. Of course, if one lives long enough, the ravages of old age invariably creep in. But many old folk have learned to live in the moment. To truly savor what’s left of life. .Living to the utmost. Thinking. Thinking. Thinking about the blessedness of being alive and conscious. –Jim Broede
