Christopher Hoctor: Inspiration
When we were young, every 'next day' held a promise of new light, new adventures, new hope. For us old folks there may be few remaining, but tomorrow is still the next day and it seems an even greater thing. The idea of tomorrow still holds the promise it did 40 years ago, but so much has changed, all the worries, the drama, the injuries of youth are now behind. The old bones and muscles are shot but the head is full of memories, the heart is filled with loved ones. Memories allow us to live the best parts of life again. Every day the memories ferment into something more rich. I wouldn't trade that for anything. Tomorrow is MY day. Older is not closer to death, it's closer to new life for all!
