Time and other Strangers
Wow, it has been a very long time since I blogged...a very long time. I guess time has gotten away from me. It seems, as time marches on, its passages has gone from snail slow to slow and steady to quick paced to OMG where did the time go.
My birthday approaches and I somewhat conflicted. First of all the date is 9/11...a significant date in history as of 10 years ago (my how quickly time passes you say). That alone makes me wonder about celebrating my birthday. I will also be just that much closer to 60 (still a bit to go but closer all the same). I wonder if I should still be doing the things I do. I still belly dance..I still play with fire..I love to try new and unusual things..Should I still be doing crazy stuff..
After much thought I reflected on one of first blog comments....why must people obsess about age? Age is irrelevant to life. So on my 57th birthday I am taking flying trapeze classes..You read it right..I am off to join the circus. I am filled with fear and dread...excitement and anticipation. My life will be reflected in this freewheeling activity. I am pushing the limits ..but what else is new.! So I had shoulder surgery..so what...So I am afraid of height..There is a net..so I am 57 WHO GIVES A RATS ASS...Life is what you make it and I intend to make the most out of my life...and any one else who wants to join the circus with me...!!
