Situations That Beg For Better Outcomes

wed for decades retired, children grown What have we in common? ten committees numerous meetings What has been accomplished? reunion time hundreds will attend Do you want to be there? many in need so much we could give What are we waiting for? princess kissed frog then became--Ribbit! Why do magic spells fail? I did you wrong, but you've forgiven-- Hon, is this wine ruined? wiseacre kid answers mall Santa: "Good according to whom?" distraught woman on phone with pastor: "I feel--are you still there?"

The loneliness to this older experienced one is conveyed and also the sorrow for wrongs done. Unfulfillment is there and we all can relate to every emotion and question here...especially as we grow older. We are left with that thought what's it all been for and do I really still have you? Good one!

Edlynn, these comments have been very well-received! Thank you for taking the time to answer from the heart. I too have some age on me and can relate to some of these points. Janice
