Empty Nest, Full Life

When I get very old, if I’m lucky enough to reach that milestone, I will give up my struggles to be perfect. I will eat brownies for breakfast and have ice cream for dinner, if that’s what I really want.

I’ll stop trying to be thinner or stronger or smarter or more accomplished.

When I get very old, I’ll lounge around all day in my pajamas and read trashy novels while eating a bag of chips.

You might wonder what has inspired me to accept the blessings of very old age.

Well, it was the Wolf King that did it.

I’ll let him explain in his own words.

Only a week ago, I still needed my leash.

A light of love

I left the light on
Not sure if you noticed
It burned so bright
I thought it would start a fire
But still I left it on.
The light of love
Illuminating the space
Where love and time moves freely
Shining to the stars above
I left them all on
For you.
I lit each one with a wish
And set it in place
For you to blow out
One by one
Wishes to come true
And the only light to remain
From above
Moon and stars
Like a serenade
To harmonize with words
This love burning bright.
I left them all on
Then kept adding more,
Enough for the world
Till I ran out of fire,
So where ever you are,
If you can light one too,
With wishes of love
And leave them on
I will be coming back soon.
