Clarification

The older I get,  the clearer becomes the view.

I was nothing more than a basement band drummer. 

I was never an original photographer.

I was only a mildly innovative marketer, showing an occasional flash of genius. 

I always have been an extraordinarily regular guy. 

I'm no leader, but rather a dispassionate follower.

I'm comfortable being alone. 

I love the woods.

I'm ordinarily lazy and have to push myself to get going. 

I'll never have accomplished anything remarkable. 

My 40s were wasted chasing pushy. My 30s wasted trying to be an adult.  My 20s were divided  - first partying - then trying to be married... a choice that I regretfully made because I was asked when I would marry her. My 50s were turbulent,  first with the decline of my relationship with Diana,  then death of mom, then re-entry of Cheryl and then her death,  and ending with the worst decision of my life... Jude. My 60s brought me back to a simpler life,  drumming and my life changing stroke.

Next!!!??!
