one of my resons for retiring was to have time with my "older" relatives and friends. after Easter i will take the train to north dakota. my aunt agnes will be 94 this month and my aunt mary will be 92 this summer. my local friends range in ages from mid-twenties to mid-nineties. quite a range! now is the time to reach out and garner all the wisdom those aunts can afford me.
friendships require time and lots of care. in my life i have been enriched a hundredfold by my relationships. men and women who take from 'where i am and lead me to 'new insights and understanding'. i count the time i spend with them as a blessing.
