Age is an ugly thing, and it goes on getting worse. |
Age wins and one must learn to grow old. |
I feel in my heart I am supposed to be here right now, ... We have here an 8-year-old cocker spaniel that I have fallen in love with. He is deaf and has a collar but no tags. Dogs like that are not very adoptable, but someone must love him. |

I must learn to walk this long unlovely wintry way, looking for spectacles, shunning the cruel looking-glass, laughing at my clumsiness before others mistakenly condole, not expecting gallantry yet disappointed to receive none, apprehending every ache of shaft of pain, alive to blinding flashes of mortality, unarmed, totally vulnerable. |
It helped me in the air to keep my small mind contained in earthly human limits, not lost in vertiginous space and elements unknown. |
