Perfection! More than just words in this piece. I had often viewed my pre-teen self, off in the distance, bare feet, on my haunches, picking dandelions or watching ants in the yard.

Amazingly, when I received my lung cancer diagnosis, I was ready to push through the fence to get closer to my younger self, to pursue paths previously unattainable, or so I thought. At 73 I am on the precipice of realizing who and why I am. The journey is amazing! Enjoy!

There is so much truth in here. Truth and memories I recognize and can almost taste.

Thank for your wonderful writing. 🤗😘
