Why do I have such a hard time believing this? Experience you say? I doubt that I have ever before experienced what is to come for this coming year. More like common sense, mixed with age and pessimism. I anticipate another of Tennyson’s poems; “The Charge of the Light Brigade”. ~~dru~~
So they say in all my meetings, including AA. ~~dru~~

‘It’s fun, once You understand How to fall”
Backwards I fell
I never knew enough
For the ones who knew
yet I knew someday
I know enough
I took patience by the hand
And waited till time
And life were ready
Not everyone waits
To laugh,yet I did
I wasn’t a fool
Just foolish enough
Not to listen till
I was ready
To count all the
Change in my pocket
To know what change
I had,and
what was about
to happen that
would change
My life forever
Funny thing
About falling
Backwards
It’s fun once
You understand
How to fall
There is no pleasure worth forgoing just for an extra three years in the geriatric ward. —John Mortimer

The love of one’s country is a splendid thing. But why should love stop at the border. -Pablo Casals, cellist, conductor, and composer (29 Dec 1876-1973)
