Staying on course.


I’m lucky. Being myself. As I am now. Rather than what I was. At another time. I’ve changed. In many ways. Remained the same, too. In other ways. I’m free. To make choices. To reminisce about yesteryear. Or about the future. But my reality is now. And I try to make the best of it. By living as I’ve defined myself. A romantic idealist, a spiritual free-thinker, a political liberal, a lover, a dreamer. Maybe it’s all pretend. But it feels real. Maybe that’s what counts. Savoring the moment. Whatever life brings. When I quit wanting life to last forever – well, that might signal the end. For now. I’m content to stay on course. In love. With life. --Jim Broede
