obvious to everyone
except to me


i was getting older

i still think i'm
what i always be


finally a clue
plain to even me


all my family senior
to me had been set free.

A touchy subject. I think most seniors feel this way at one time or another. But to enjoy life is the thing to do now. I'm so glad you have so much talents in the computer field to keep your life filled with so much enjoyable excitement. You are so talented!!!
