Jun 2018
I was born with health and the whole wide world at my feet.
As a child I began with a sparkle in my eye and a spring in my step.
As a young man I dreamt of the accomplishments to be and the love of my life to be.
As a mature man the pressures of modern life stole away my zest for life and the sparkle in my eye sparkled no more. The accomplishments became the impossible, the love of my life never to be.
My mind askew, close to accepting a monotone, solitary existence, fate smiled upon me like a sunray warming my face as you did when we met.
We met, we talked, we fell deeply and happily in love. Marriage ensued as did the pitter patter sound of our childrens' feet.
The dreams and accomplishments became simply achieved as the greatest accomplishment I had was meeting you.
Years passed, as an elderly man, I look back upon my life. The journey of life led me full circle back to realise the potential I had as a baby. The whole wide world was always at my feet.
