A fine write Gold.
Yes, this psychological stuff of \'Who am I?\' etc. Dunno why all the fuss. The answer is \'Me!!\' lol.
Doh! a course got a bit patronising. It said \'People over 70 are considered old, can\'t learn much new stuff, become less intelligent\'. Then described them as somewhat decrepit. Maybe someone young wrote the course?

We Have Memories.
Bobby O said:
For fun and exploration of etymology I read this poem out loud twice with an opposite voice each time. First was a winsome whisper , and the phrases danced eagerly with shy optimism that this HOPE will be reached , skipping roads that traveled through doubt and it was a satisfying belief, a mantra sent to serve for more and many days. Then opposite and starkly different was the VOICE OF A COMMAND. AN IMAGINED Authoritative figure delivered loudly each phrase, it unloaded with a Practiced certainty as if this metaphorical Roadmap was critical to follow The underlying suggestive “other “,, a corralled distasteful failure, much like a visit to Dante’s regions of hell. “Win One For The Gipper” as Rockne desperatelly Cajoled, imminent destruction a General’s pleas to leap from the abyss , from this VOICE we listened and achieved.

Great news Gold.
I\'m becoming tired of job-seeking. Why should I stress so much over it? I\'m due to retire in less than a year. I\'m semi-retired now already virtually. Doh!

The text of the poem conveys a positive and hopeful outlook towards a new day. The writer\'s appreciation for music, nature, and social interactions, along with their loving relationship, all contribute to the overall uplifting message of the text.

Here in my state of Missouri (I pronounce it Misery) you\'ve come very close to the 10 day weather forecast with this delightful poem. Topped off with a classic Marx Brothers routine, it is my big smile of the day. Thank you dear friend!

Did we meet the Grand Old Duke of York? He went up and down a hill. Didn\'t know if he was coming or going! lol.
Yes, so in a way, being \'over the hill\' is useful - not that we\'re useless or past it.

Your words are golden dear friend. There is nothing like an early morning walk, when all is quiet, except for nature; chorus of birdsong, squirrels rustling leaves, wind in the trees, it is glorious. Thank you for this beautiful, heartfelt poem, as well as the increcible video it is all truly an Ode To Joy!
