stay cozy under the blanket ~
normal feels good
but not strong.
don’t have to surrender
to belief.
That would take energy ~
feeling ‘not 25 anymore’.
a distressing thought.
at both ages ~ lying down,
feet up feels the same.
No worries about being tired,
being out of balance,
being afraid of our own mortality.
With every age and stage of life
~ being in the world changes.
How anyone adjusts
to these minute changes ~
one of life’s great mysteries.
But adjust we do with
the same wants and needs -
balance shifting from wants to needs.
But oh, how do we still
‘want’ the bright shiny things.
“I fall into all kinds of inauthenticity
when I conspire to forget my mortality.”
~ Sam Keen, author
