The Truth Hurts Sometimes

The girl I crushed on in High School just became a grandmother for the first time. Makes me think of the life that could have been. Family and children the real prize to achieve in this world. I regret I didn't have the right stuff to make it happen for myself.

The grass is always greener my friend, you can't get caught up on what may have been.

I think we all yearn for what we don't have. I have a lot to be thankful for, beautiful spouse, six kids, one grandkid (so far). But I miss just plain free time, with sports,appointments and meals it seems I can never just take a day to enjoy little things. Smoke of my pipe, a book cover to cover, or a simple televison show with out some one needing me or interruptions every five minutes.

Yeh, that would annoy the hell out of me just knowing myself and how much I treasure all the ME time that I have. Like I said. Boat has sailed. It's for the best.

It's never too late to find the love of your life. You never know what the future holds.

I sometimes regret never having kids, but the woman I married at 35..?

She made black coffee look relaxed.

Now at 51 I'm SOOOOOO happy to be single again. I would have liked to have procreated. But soooo happy I didn't.

Now that I FINALLY found a crazy, yet mature 'love of my life'.., I am at peace. Ohh, don't think I don't love my solitude and being by myself, I really, really do. I enjoy it alot.

But, once you find 'that person'..

You never want to breathe alone again.

Trust me, sir.

No kids for me either and I don't give a good goddamn.

No kids here either and at 64, ain't gonna be any. I was lucky enough to find someone that would put up with me. My mom was disappointed we didn't have any kids but that's the way the ball bounces. Hope you find some happiness. It's always mixed with problems but worth the journey. Life is weird at best.
