It is a battle, fighting against your own enlightenment to do the things you once did. When I was a kid I would scoff at the "old people" admonishing me to be careful. I know what they mean now.
I could be in better shape than I am, maybe these things would happen less frequently. The days drift by like forgotten resolution about going to the track and walking. Labor Day has come and gone, the cooler days of autumn I anticipate with relish, which I understand they put on hot dogs insted of chilli where I am headed.
The maple leaves are already crumbling brown in my drive way, how does the stem of one always get wedged in something, flapping down the road to 45 mph when it crumbles or escapes. Would that some of the baggage of life fall always so easily, cares out run like the neighbors dog.
If I were there Jess, I would give you a boost on that horse, and would help you up when you fell off.

Mmmmm, your stories are like a little trip to the beach for all of us Truman! Thanks for bringing us in on it. :)

I know what you mean. I am 38 and I already have started to be fearful of things I use to do all the time. I have developed a horrible fear of hieghts that I never had before. I wake up in the night sometimes feeling like i'm falling .I always enjoyed amusement parks that had the tallest and fastest rollercoasters on the planet. Now I break out in a cold sweat thinking of them. I have also become a slower driver. I was never fearful on the highways before. I am always thinking of accidents now.i dont know maybe I have just grown up. But i do find it sad to do so sometimes.
this beautiful post has made feel depressed for some reason. Maybe because it is turning into Autumn once again. I always feel a loss at this time of year. I know it has a name; Seasonal Affective Disorder. It does feel Like something is over. gone. And that's something I didn't have when I was younger either. Its weird ,and I don't like the feeling at all.
