HIGHER and HIGHER

MISS RHEINGOLD CONCLUDES:

HIGHER and HIGHER!

When I was very young and had to swim(or wanted to) in deep waters, I chose to slow my pace at first, but soon realized it would be best to be faster, albeit with a steady stroke, but one that I could maintain.

My thoughts were to make the arrival more important than form, as well as to keep a steady pace by keeping my eyes both in front of me and alternating them in the direction of my landing.

These past months, and I expect the months to come as well, I have been calculating the far off shore to be nearer than I had supposed. My pace, therefore, has quickened. All right, if I must, the term "bucket list" does come in handy! Remember, an occasional cliché (from a past blog) is to be allowed!

I have hastened to organize both near and far term plans so as not to allow them too much space for the future! Horizons---ah that old time word----we used it so freely to dream, to wax poetic.

I have been reviewing occasions to be celebrated in the near future and am fixing ideas into plans

so as "to get it all in" before the final horizon! No, not macabre, just practical to keep an even stroke a bit faster, to reach the shore before I am to be swept away!

I am reading the books that have been on my list---not for too long now--- only ones by my favorite important authors.

Life has become brighter----more illuminated--- with keen recognition of details and duties.

Instead of being sad about it, all has become higher and higher---brighter and brighter.

Worth thinking over even if you are not yet at my stage!

Higher and higher-----worth the time and the climb-----whereto for you?

I have two major journeys planned for this year. They include visits.
