Fiat

Fiat!

There  is a turning point for most of us

A moment when after great thought and effort

It becomes clear that no effort or thought will change  as a result of our efforts

Personally  I have tried for many years to develop a plan or a method so that others would see solutions to issues they might have

Without realizing it allowed  me to be a leader or rejected or included in life’s choices for myself, and occasionally, for others

But like stalagmite dripping, endlessly, freezing membranes into brittle arthritis

Time’s progression  has been a blessing for me as it reveals the secrets of aging

It has taken its toll on my quick solutions or suggestions

Slowly, so slowly, my quick wit and feet have left me

More  time has meant  meditating, and reflecting

Quite clearly now I can see others much like myself

Always  kind of understood old guys sitting around a McDonald’s breakfast table

Chatting about what they found interesting that day

Or commenting on what others might be thinking

This is my life now!

No longer can I jump in and be the solution

More often, individuals are opening the door for me

Offering to hold my arm to prevent a fall

I don’t actually wanna see a mirror or a video of myself walking

I’m OK with my walking. I’m OK that I am walking. I’m glad that I am walking

I have a lot more people prompting me, directing me in case I can’t remember

The 10th time they’ve told me how to do something or how to get somewhere

Pretty  much I’m starting to  believe that at some point I will just fade away

As I don’t really quite understand how much I have faded away

Nonetheless

Truly now I am just so happy to be with you,yes I am taking to you!

And  finally now I am able to say that this is my new reality

Thus the Latin phrase “Fiat” “Let It Be”
