A new fork in the road? A new crossroads? You can never tell, Given that,how do you make a decision? If you knew what would lay along your path the decision would be much easier. The end remains the same, regardless, only time is affected. Some of these decisions are without thought or cause...a wave that you ride until it crests. Then you can only hope.
Right now I seem to be riding one of those waves. When it crests I will be facing the proverbial question...what's up Doc?, or what next? I'm thinking that that the crest is about two years away. But, not having a plan "B" or"C" worries me.
This trip was intended to accomplish several things. Many of these aims have been and are still being fulfilled. Grace's last wishes, to enjoy life, to be among caring friends, to see, to do, to participate in life are ongoing, daily events. Only time is going to answer "what's next?".
I had hoped to add some beauty to my life and I believe I have been more than successful there. A portrait is in the process right now. I have had a couple of my photos reinterpreted in black and white acrylic. Lastly, there is a stunning Tamara Lempicka repro that I had painted. My walls in Florida will not lack for color.
As to the positive approach...it's still a work in progress! I will use all the time allowed!
Surprises abound, people realize your feelings and respond. Happily it has occurred again. I, once again, love this place!
The path continues and when the next turn nears this will be my simple guide...
Only you can bring your own happiness!
This is my on line "Collector's Cabinet". It is non-profit and haphazard at best. I leave it to you to sort through and make sense of.The views are mine. The collection reflects some of my interests. But the material must be credited to the vast internet. Otherwise, I never would have been able to amass such a treasure trove. The purpose of this exercise is entertainment, naturally mine, but even more so yours. So, please let me know if anything strikes a chord with you.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
ReplyDeleteAnd sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood,And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black,
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubt if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence;
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
