the inBetween

 Though I have been sober for twenty-eight years I still awake with the hair of the dog

Some say that we must be in constant motion trying new things and exotic places or we will stagnate and die and I suppose in my younger days I followed that path to an extent. Now I am content to travel the same well worn trails and, since Nature is in constant flux,observe the changes that happen around me. Even a bog with no outlet for the rainwater it collects maintains Life within its stagnancy. The trick then is to stay observant. Be in tune with your surroundings no matter how familiar they may be and see the subtle changes that are happening slowly, daily, and as your remaining years go by,Life will be worthwhile.
