Strange life

If I look honestly at my life, I have to admit to its strangeness. My guess is that if others did the same, they would come to the same conclusion. In essence, I think normal is the new abnormal.

Normal to me means ruts and routines and always expectations met. Normal is like driving down a super highway with McDonald’s at every stop.

We have to recognize that life, at its most vigorous, keeps us off balance and is full of quirky and unexpected events and relationships. Yes, and pain and disappointment, too.

It’s not a question of why life’s that way. We just have to be open to the challenges and delights of our own strange adventure.
