Thinking an Awful Lot
I recently celebrated my 43rd birthday.
That is what started all of the thinking and reminiscing.
At this age, my father was diagnosed with Cancer.
He died six months later.
I have no fear of mortality.
I try to do what is right and most of the time, I succeed.
When my father was thus age, the world was quite different.
Our telephones had cords.
Cable was a huge deal.
Divorce was an isolating way of life.
A woman's worth was whether she could work and be a housewife, quietly.
Feminism was really starting to become noticed.
I think of all these things and reflect on my life.
I'm overall, happy.
I have been divorced.
I'm nit able to have children.
I can pursue whatever career I wish.
I have met a lot of people that have made a great impact on my life.
I have the relative freedom to do whatever I wish.
I believe if my father was still on thus Earth, he would be proud of who I am becoming.
I have gone back to school tomearn my BBA.
I am doing well in my courses.
I struggle but, I am learning all the time.
I am so grateful.
