Growing older

I am so often here these days: sitting, looking, thinking. I crave stillness, but things are always on the move, are never going to stop. Perhaps it is a condition of growing older, to be afraid of change, to be afraid of what change means. But I still sit here, still watch, still ask, over and over, where these waters are going.
