Everything about aging in my experience so far has been a plus. Except the death part!

Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children.

SISTERS
Said the adolescent to her older sister
?Why am I so gangly and you are so pretty??
Said the older Sister
? To everything there is a season .. and you are still wet behind the ears!?

Sister is probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once the sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship.

Margaret Mead

FROM ZERO to WHOLESOMENESS ON THE WAVES OF TIME

? a poem

From nothing to wholesomeness
And then to nothing again
From zero to all the numbers
From the empty womb to new life
From the round seed to the wholesome tree
And then to recede And then to seed again
And we cycle and cycle .. and cycle
With repeated spiraling of bonded zeroes till eternity
While time moves on its unstoppable wheels
And we are given a present to be present in the present
To understand the holy void and holy wholesomeness

Waste does not exist in nature because ecosystems reuse everything that grows in a never-ending cycle of efficiency and purpose.

The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.
