Habits are a curse, and time is an arc....

Thought for the day.

I feel this a lot right now -- things that should be child's play for me are hard, and other things, well, it's as if I've been dropped into a culture with a language I don't speak. Everything is tantalizingly close to what I know, but I have to pay attention to nuance as much as I can.

So I am learning new things every day. And if I have enough energy, it keeps me young.

Lots to be said for keeping on learning. *2 thumbs up*

Much better than the alternative, when taken in perspective!

That was the beautiful Max, his older brother, whom I lost the end of February. He was 18 when he went ahead, and had lived a long and mostly good life. This picture is the two of them waiting for a certain client to arrive. Merlyn was my massage therapy cat -- he felt it was his duty to greet everyone! (Since the very heavy client almost fell on him, he's been a little shyer about coming out to see people. "It was an earthquake, Mom!" he keeps telling me.)
