I sit here at the middle point in my life. (Wow!! How did that happen?) Connecting with friends and family, from what seems like a life time ago. Finding out what has happened in their lives over the years. Realizing what opportunities had been open to me that I didn’t even see.
It would seem to me (and I could be wrong here) that life has presented me with exactly what I wanted and on a few occasions. Everything that I had dreamed about would have been mine, if only I’d have had the patience to let it all unfold. Unfortunately, the trick to knowing this lays in hindsight. So then the lesson here is that life is not, not giving us what we want but that we aren’t patient enough to wait for it. Interesting!! There in lies the real tragedy in life. We truly are our own worst enemies.
