Retiree Journal

Inspired by artist Steven Reddy (see his new kickstarter here), who does a visual journal sketch every single day I actually sketched my day yesterday, which is included below. That sort of made me confront some things. Like, when I first started this blog, I figured it would be obvious in a couple of months what it was about (but it still doesn’t seem that obvious). And sometimes when you watch a movie and you get impatient when you can’t figure out what it is about is sort of how my life in retirement seems to be going. I’ve been kind of vacillating between wanting it to have more meaning and being glad it is so unstructured. After all, as the soothing voice in the guided meditation that I have been listening to in the morning says at the end, “All you have to do is breathe”. So far so good!
