This year Alvin and Nalini have been married 9 years. So have Matt and Mel; though they have been together 15. 15 years in a life of 90+. A sixth of your life, that is not a lot, but it in the direction of significant. Numbers that we use to mark our lives, to measure where we are help direct us to where we should go.
When should we grow, jump on or stand aside. Allow the next generation to propel us; cultivate the next generation. Must it be a choice! Should we chose to end our contribution and settle for nurture those who shall. Why can we not do both.
Is it possible to do both? Are you able to make something of your life as well as making a life. There is a time limit for men as there is for women. Because both sexes are simple biology at the core.
Life must be as we take it. And after nine years of taking this life, I can only smile. So many more to look forward to. I love you Chica. You are my motivation, my power. Come back to me safely. Buena suenos.
