An optimistic upbeat guy.


I’m basically an upbeat guy. Because of life circumstance. I’ve been blessed with good health. Here I am. A survivor. For 82 years, and counting. Sure, I’ve had setbacks. Disappointments. The loss of loved ones. Lots of stuff. That I wish had never happened. But I’ve always been in a position. To remind myself. That I’ve been healthy, if not wealthy. Doesn’t matter As long as I have my health. Makes me feel good. Even when life takes a bad turn. I can handle rough spots. I simply go for brisk walks. And breathe fresh air. Clears my mind. Every time. Meanwhile. I know the time will come. When I’m no longer healthy. I may drop dead. Without notice. But hey, as long as I’m healthy. No need to worry about the future. Instead, I’ll just settle. For being an optimistic upbeat guy. --Jim Broede
