aging

December 8, 2025, marks my 77 rotations around the sun.

The number 7   7
An angel number, I read it somewhere
A powerful sign, I read it somewhere
A spiritual awakening
And 
Divine guidance, I read it somewhere

I read it
On the internet

It must be true

Looking backwards 
Through the backend
Of a telescope

The world will be very small
upside down
and mirror-reversed 
(flipped horizontally and vertically)

A life lived seems so far away

The years falling like dominoes 
Behind me

And
They are gone

Evaporated memories
Of a complicated
Life

There was 
Joy Terror
Laughter Drama
Love Hate
Light Darkness

Did I mention
Laughter

Smiles Frowns
Success Failures
aging
photographer unknown
What did I expect

7 7 years
Of a
Complicated life

Can someone please
Explain

(why do I need
An explanation)

How did this all
Happen Why

Does it even matter

I am here 
In a good place
At least for today

Bathe in it
Swallow it whole

The divine guidance
The completion
The awakening

Halfway between
7 5
And
8 0

Be grateful
You can see
This far back

And hope
You can see far forward
(at least for now)

There’s no time to lose
No time to worry
How I got here
I am here

Live today

While I can
