Addicted to Life – by Ian McDonald
December 1, 2013 · By Ian McDonald
I find it hard to accept that old age has come upon me. Life still is sweet and might go on forever so far as I am concerned since there is so much more to experience and discover and enjoy. The fact is that I am addicted to life and its multitudinous attractions and have no particular wish to go into rehab to cure myself of this addiction.
Who would not want this journey lit by wonders and surprises to go on and on if only to see what new marvels wait beyond the next turn in the road and the next? Continue reading
And then …. It is winter!
And then …. It is winter!
I Believe:
The Happiest of People Don’t Necessarily Have the Best of Everything.

“Your birthday”? I asked. “Then you should be celebrating, why the tears”
She replied “I am getting old” and burst into a fresh round of tears and sobbing.
I was confused for a moment. She was attractive, had a great personality and was only in her early thirties, a single mother of two, and she was a regular customer of the store I then owned. I was wondering why it bothered her so much about getting older. Continue reading
OPINION: Life … And Then It Is Winter By Ed Meadows | The Reporter + 2 Videos
Time has a way of moving quickly and catching you unaware of the passing years. It seems just yesterday when I was young, just married and embarking on a new life with my mate. Yet, in a way, it seems like eons ago, and I wonder where all the years went.
I know I lived them all. I have photos and glimpses of how it was back then and of all my hopes and dreams. Continue reading →
