I am just trying to make it to the promised land with my very special wife by my side.
Not talking about heaven or any other version of an afterlife.
Just looking for a little peace. A sense of accomplishment. A satisfaction related to the decades we have spent on this earth and the decades we have spent together.
Looking for some meaning. Some explanation.
A soul deep, earth shattering enlightenment revealing the justification for my birth and my life.
Life is on the attack high, hot and hard. Slinging knives at us, forcing us to sidestep and renegotiate.
Hard to settle into any sense of peace or love or satisfaction or meaning when life becomes so harsh.
The challenge is that this is precisely the time that that level of understanding is required.
I have an idea in my head of what the promised land would feel like for me.
I am not feeling it yet.
And I am afraid.
