I think I will always remain exactly how I am at the moment..... I try to tread on no ones toes and still instigate the most crazy pranks on my family and friends.....
I know now this as a fact because my mum and dad still tell me off when ever I target them.... You'd think they'd have learnt by now that a leopard can't change its spot.......Not that I have a single one actually......:)D
I hope you always remain as you are today my friend. Now of course I "know" you from a distance only over a substantial number of years. I only know what you allow me to see when we chat. I think you are 100% the real deal! I like that a lot. You wear well which means you are a really interesting and often surprising person. I like that too! So there! So sue me! Thank you for your reply NJ! :)
Well change is constant even though we are the same person. The time will come when I am no longer able to do a lot that I now do. Even now , at 60, I see myself living in a harshly different world from the one in which we grew up, with most things we took for granted as truth now rejected by perhaps a majority of people. I am a product of a particular place and time and continue to be so so I end up living against the grain, so to speak.
"Meant to be" - by whom? God? No I am too much a sinner though I try to be better still Jesus Christ is the only path left to me for my eternal salvation. My family, my parents, the community in which I grew up? I spent so much of my youth rebelling against them funny thing I have ended up more like them than anything else. Oh not entirely but the values I learned were so deeply ingrained I could never entirely get away from them. Outwardly the life I live and the husband I have are what they would have wanted for me years ago when I didn't want to hear anything about that! But not the same. I am myself for better or worse because that is all I am able to be. And I just try to take it one day at a time. Once I could never imagine even being this old but now it doesn't seem so all-fired old to me any longer!
Nice Jugs
