We all do this, don't we!

We wake up, our babies are gone, and we suddenly realise that time is against us.

Yet it's not.

We are still here, with work to do, with scores to settle, and battles to win.

Sure we can no longer do what once seemed easy, the marathons, the open-all-hour days when we could survive with minimal sleep. I mean who goes to bed at ten o'clock when young?

And yet bed, and sleep and rest are where we all find comfort and renewal.

And tomorrow comes and we are still here, planning, encouraging, and still finding our selves. Old age be damned. 🤣😄🤣
