Wow! I haven't posted on this little blog in over a year. I really haven't felt I had anything to say to anyone in my little cubicle of the internet. Then, God brought this blog to mind this past week. I don't know how often or what I'll post, but when the mood hits me, I'll be back.
As the first post in over a year, I was wondering if anyone out there feels like I do: There has to be more to this life. My life has changed drastically since I retired in 2017. Six months ago I became the full-time caregiver to my soon-to-be 91 year-old dad (November 9). I would not trade that for anything, but before he came to live with me, I was already feeling like there had to be more. I felt like I was wasting my life and was no good to anyone.
Now, I know my job at present is to take care of Dad, but I still wonder, "Why am I here?" I am not one of those retired people who wants to travel every few months or play golf (YUCK!), but I want to do something meaningful with whatever time I have left. My problem now is discovering what is meaningful and if there is a place for me.
