Days off in solitude are still difficult, this time of year does not help. Usually I have many errands to complete, places to visit, tasks to accomplish. Today I do not, today I'm on my own, well I guess I'm never truly on my own, you're always with me one way or another, my thoughts, my smiles, my tears.
This morning I went to mass, I got there a bit early and the chapel was full of senior citizens, they were praying the rosary. Something I learned and long forgotten, sorry Sister Mary Potter. It me thinking, some day I will be one of those senior citizens, well at least I hope I will I've learned in this life the future is not a given. I digress, some day if I have the fortune to be on this earth in my eighties and those around me going to a daily mass, we may not know the prayers of the rosary, well at least with out the aid of a prayer book. What is our world shaping into? This is a true question, not meant to be pessimistic by any means, just an honest curiosity of the unknown future I may or may not share in.
I will retire to my day of solitude and complete my chores of laundry and continue to contemplate the future.
take care
love you my handsome man and my dear
