Lifes Journey

My comfort in youth was belonging to a peer group and a family who loved me

My comfort as a young adult was knowing I was part of the future, building the dream

My comfort as a middle-aged adult was knowing I had given back to the world and was still giving, even though I was slowing down

My comfort as an older adult was seeing my children grow up, happy and productive, and seeing my grandchildren thrive

My comfort as I grew older was in the word of God, and the promise of a good life if I believed in Him

Then something changed in my heart and I began to stray from the past and the present, learning another way

Technology passed me by, and with each day I was falling behind in all I tried and didn't understand the world as it was anymore

I was standing on the outside looking in, and no longer part of the game

I couldn't contribute to anything but was slowly making my way out, and then I understood

Once we find ourselves on the outside of the fence of life, it's time to start walking away, and with a smile and a kiss blown gently to my old life, I began my new journey
