It’s Harder Than I Thought

I have started and erased this entry about six times.  I never dreamed it would be so hard to write a blog.

I’m a writer, this should be easy, right?  No problem. . . just let the words flow out onto the page.  Piece of cake!

Nope, it’s harder than I thought.

I planned on writing something profound, like following your dreams. Growing older, living life without regrets.  So, this is what I decided to share.

I turn 52 on the 29th of this month.  I don’t feel anxious about my age.  I feel I’m entitled to few perks by now.  Like saying what I think without remorse.  Like getting the only seat left in the waiting area at a busy restaurant.  Getting a closer parking space at the grocery store or being allowed to dress comfortably without being judged.  Being able to take a long time finding the correct change in a check out without glaring stares from the people behind me.  Being able to fart in public (Well, maybe I’m not old enough for that one yet!)

What perks do you think you should be granted with each added year?

Thanks for your time.

Tami

   Hi Tami -

   I agree that blog writing is a lot more difficult than it seems. But you seem to be getting the hang of it. I’ll be stopping by periodically to see what’s new.

   Sunshine & Hugs!

     I’ve been called lots of things, but never ‘dude’. I’m glad you enjoyed the article. I don’t require people to subscribe. Just save the site as a favorite and return from time to time to read any new posts. I might in the future ask people to subscribe but don’t really see the need for it now. So relax, dude, there’s nothing wrong with the rss. Thank you and please stop by again.
