Hello Friends,
Yes, I chose to write a blog entry today. Lately, I have been feeling that at my age, I should not have a future outlook. Many well-known people and some not-so-well-known people have passed away at 76, my age: Jimmie Buffet, Melonie, Richard Tandy, Richard Lewis, OJ Simpson, et al. On the other hand, many of my family members lived into their 90's. So. If I want to adopt a positive attitude as a close friend encourages me to and admonishes me for negative vibes, this is a start:
"Yes, I am an older guy, and I have had an uncountable number of sexual encounters of many variations. I am settling into a pattern despite age related challenges: I desire a soft-spoken, affectionate woman who grows into a friendship, and once we know and trust each other, have sex from easygoing to whipped-up extremely passionate lovemaking as we learn to be lovers for each other. This takes time. Should I be in a hurry? No, I must not because the quality of both the friendship and the sex depend upon taking time to develop a relationship that can meet this goal."
My wife has a terminal disease, and its progression can not enable an accurate prognosis. What shall I do? I need to find the most profound amount of wisdom that I can summon to help guide me into such an ambiguous future.
The opinions are abundant, but the wisdom has yet to emerge.
