I see the confused look of concern and agreement on the faces of my friends. Those who are staying - the majority - would have me change my mind. Understandable.
As I get older, the cold fact of running out of time to do the things I want to do, has become a source of constant anxiety.
I realize time waits for no one and is a finite resource.
Time is the greatest asset of all and like any asset, the more we have the more the comfort.
I do not wish to waste time, although I know time is wasting me with its subtle and unstoppable countdown.
:(
Are you leaving for good, or a short visit? Would be tough to leave such a beautiful place but only you can decide for "you."
ReplyDeleteI intend to return for good, although I'll always visit Madeira as often as possible.I can't get used to being away from my kids - my number one priority. I'll let you know when I'm in your neighbourhod and maybe we can have a pint and a chat :)
