Unencumbered.

I wonder. If it’s time for me to slow down. To do less. Not more. To smell the roses. To march in place. And chew gum at the same tine. Yes. Just another strange thought. Fortunately. I’ve not let the oddities of life. Impede me. Better to forge ahead. And take life. In comfortable stride. To not feel pushed. By others. Life is not a competition.  I’m allowed to step outside of boundaries. To take time outs. At my pleasure. That’s what I’m doing now. Reflecting. Musing. In pursuit of the easy life. Living the way I want to live. Unencumbered. Not having any burden or impediment. Interesting, isn’t it? The single word that comes to mind. To sum up.  Where I’m headed today. --Jim Broede
