How much do we have left?
Time.
I haven’t really thought about how long I will live; in fact, I may have been a bit careless about my life at certain times in the past.
As I age, feeling the effects of time more and more in my puny little human body, I do think about the fact that the time I have experienced is more than the time I have ahead of me here on earth. The reality of the passing of time comes home to us in different ways depending on our view of death and what happens after death.
How do you view aging?

Happy New Year!
Warm and pleasant greetings from our community to yours. No longer alive is 2025, so we’ve got this for 2026.
We have learned a lot, believe it or not. As we begin the new year, I am grateful for the privilege to write the Blue Cane Little Hubbard News article. It’s not always about the community, per se, mostly because the community organization is no longer active. When the group would gather each month, happy to greet and sometimes eat (brunch), we shared family and community notes.

Opinions of President Trump’s decision to capture the president of Venezuela and bring him to the United States to face drug charges will vary. Those who support the president will think he’s doing right for America, and those who oppose him will question the legality of the overnight military operation.
