It happens sometimes,
Reality stumbles and falls.
Survival claws its way back,
Thinking,
Jeez! Gotta watch that first step.

Yes, my friend it can be a doozie. Funny thing about reality, it can change with perspective. ~L

You are so right about reality can change our perspective, big time, Lori. Age had a tendency to do that for you.

Those were the times when many life lessons were learned. Stumbling, and stumbling again Mr. Bolton. These many days, my stumbling is more premeditated. This way there is a better chance of seeing 'it' coming. I can appreciate your learned ways.    

Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me!

"These many days, my stumbling is more premeditated"

Good that you can see your stumbling before they happen these days, I'm still stumbling and bumbling along life's highway.

Thank you . . . for your insightful comment . . .
