Unresolved

I resolve. Not to make any New Year resolutions. I am finding it hard to go with the flow, I know, It is the sensible approach to take, Worrying won't make Situations change, Life is strange, Things are not like they used to be, For me or thee. They never are Have we gone too far? I do not want to go with the flow, Oh no. It has become too fast for me, Poverty is all I see.

I do not want to go with the flow either so this spoke to me "I do not want to go with the flow, Oh no."

You and I are not going to go with the flow, No, No, NO!

Modern people speak too fast for me for my old ears to listen; should I go with the flow, or let the current sail them off to compatible ears? I see a future where I don't belong, but not poverty! Aloha!

G'day Rico. I agree people speak so fast it sounds like a foreign language to me. As I get older, I seem to live in the past, where I feel more comfortable. I enjoy reading your comments. Thank you, Rico.
