It's My Birthday
 |
Life certainly has proceded far beyond my expectations and I wax solemn at this day I find myself farther down the road and having outlived the majority of my friends. It's also a time for me to remember family who have also departed. It's a sad notion that we must view the end of life as an important part of existence — but so it is as we endure those changes it brings to us all.
My pursuit of new friends to replace those who have passed has not gone as it should have ... primarily due to my failure at pursuing those social interactions which might have encouraged more of them and my diminished need for company in general.
However wanting I become I also hold value in that solitude which affords me the opportunity to pursue those emerging and evolving technologies which pay the bills and add interest to what otherwise could be quite the drab life.
Whatever the future holds for me down the road I am satisfied in the knowledge that I have been successful in life beyond my personal expectations and it's been quite a ride thus far as I proceed into the remaining unknown.
Happy Birthday to me !
