Q-and-A


I am aging gracefully as is my faith like the gray replacing the brown in my beard pesky questions have been quietly replaced not with answers but the earned ease that comes with the confidence of blithely ignored uncertainty, There is grace in abandoned worry freedom in letting go the folly of life mastery comfort with embracing the mystery there are products I could buy to subdue hirsute hues but I am not that vain I could say I have found my questions answered but the need for that lie has long since waned The older I get the more confident I am the only thing ‘truth’ truly means s that today is today tomorrow will probably still be tomorrow and that whether I think I get it or not the questions don’t matter nearly as much as knowing the unanswered uncertainty has gone away forever and I never miss it
