I am quite reflective tonight. I had an enjoyable day. I went to church this morning and that is always uplifting and I rested this afternoon, I didnt walk Mr. Jack today which is not good but I had a nose bleed--first one in a long time and I was afraid it might start back as I walked so I didnt go. I am very blessed for a huge number of reasons. I am happy despite living alone. I have adapted well after the loss of my Mom three years ago and live rather contentedly with my dog and cat. I am so very lucky that I still work when most of my contemporaries are retired and I have no desire or intention to quit until age and infirmary make it impossible to continue or I expire, whichever comes first. I look forward to getting up every work day and going to the college where life is such a joy and frankly I get a tug of regret when it is time to come home because I enjoy my work so much. My health has been good for quite a while and I take really good care of myself and do not allow myself to get stressed or pressured which is an anathema to me. It is ironic that at my age I really am at the top of my intellectual abilities and, of course, inevitably wise from the experience received from the rigors of life. I had a doctor tell me once that I have been where no one has ever been and lived. I feel so very blessed and fortunate to be alive and happy and productive and be able to actually make a difference in other peoples lives. I do not know how long I will live or what comes hereafter but I intend to make the most of it and leave this world feeling that I lived a life that was worth something and when the roll is called up yonder that I will get a thumbs up and a Well done my good and faithful servant.
