In my forties I fully expect to loose one or both of my parents to advanced age. It’s something I realize is inevitable as is probably me settling down and traveling less. It’s sad to think of the coming loss and change ahead but I should try to enjoy as many memories as possible before it’s forever gone.
At the same time I’m going to be moving into my second decade with my company, and God willing, I will continue to move forward and upward with a six figure income which with inflation these days doesn’t seem like what it once was. But it’s wonderful having gotten the private corner office, a division to oversee with all those responsibilities and the ability to participate in management decisions.
Every day I see the age creeping into my face, the gray in my hair both from experience and years of worry and struggle. No life follows a perfectly straight path upwards, I’ve had my downs too. Yet thanks to my healthier lifestyle in a physical sense I feel younger than I have in years.
