We get older, and if we're lucky... we get wiser.

But we never stop learning.

(at least we shouldn't).


Today, I came to a sinking realization that I am going to be alone a lot more often than I'd like to be.
It doesn't bother me as much as I thought it would. And it's hard to explain why. But my lesson is learned regardless.

Less for everybody else. More for me and *mine*. Time and effort. Where it belonged all along.
(And I'm just now realizing this?)
