Life is as sweet as honey on the tongue.....
As we get older, and look back, life seems shorter.
The years stretch behind us like the road in the rearview mirror as we drive.
We have forgotten so much of the journey, we begin to appreciate the limited time we have been given, and that it all will come to any end one day in the not so distant future.
My Aunt Martha is a wonderful woman with a sparkling wit, rapier sharp mind, kind, thoughtful, and in her late 80’s, has become very frail.
Last summer on my motorcycle trip around Lake Erie my buddy and I stopped in for a visit, she fixed us lunch and she mugged for the camera astride our Harley’s.
We had hoped to visit her again this year when we circumnavigate Lake Ontario.
But now, I am not so sure we will be able to.
Now she is looking for a home in which to spend the rest of her days.
And she does this with her unfailing humorous take on this most serious next step in her life.
