Joy in the Journey


I warmly hugged Seth Macon, an energetic 90 year old, and said hello. "How are you?" "Well, I'm taking it one half day at a time --- it is just a bit bold at my age to attempt an entire day." That sense of humor is why he is the youngest 90 year old I know.
We walked into their apartment to greet his still-beautiful wife, Hazel. "Oh, Hazel, you look wonderful." Without missing a beat she said, "Brenda, you know there are three stages of life, don't you? Youth, middle age, and 'my, you look good.'" I laughed and laughed.
Joy in their journey and much joy on mine.
