I was typing in Stillwater's thread about the influence of social media and now I'm crying. Why? Because I was talking about my Great Uncle who's gone, his wife my beloved great Aunt Susie is also gone. Earlier on here I was talking about my Grandparents who are all gone and my Dad is gone too.
I'm 43 and will be 44 next month. I don't want to be 44, I don't want to be dead but I don't want to get older. I want my kids to stay young and I want to stay middle aged. I know it's so unrealistic but i've had these thoughts in my head lately. I'm not going through a mid life crisis, I'm going through a sad life crisis. I usually take life one day at a time, but I've been over thinking everything lately.
God help me snap out of it and realize life is what it is.
This is not metal. It's actually quite pleasant.
Be glad I'm communicating through song and not interpretive dance. Also, be glad I'm not doing the singing.

But yeah. We wonder if there is more to life sometimes. That answer is that there is Christ.
Age is a good thing, if we have fond memories to look back at, so you're doing pretty well. You're married, you have children, and you have Christ. Until that day when every tear is dried, hold on to what you do have.
Also, think about how many Dirty Harry jokes you get to make this year!
