If you ever stepped outside your body; what did you see?
I saw a senior woman standing there, struggling to walk, careful to look where she stepped. She looked up, noticed me staring, and said, “Do I know you?”
I thought what a puzzle.

Since joining WordPress, I have been introduced to writing poetry and loving it something new in my life. I am also a grandmother to many.
I enjoy learning different skills but claim master to none.
My Faith is my life and everything I do comes second.
It has always given me peace of soul.

You really describe a lot of us who are moving on up in age. Loved the ending. I would say, “No don’t think I remember you!”

Oh yes! Just described me to a tee – and I have seen her. Puzzle is how did I get here so soon?

Interesting question ❤ If I were to step out I would probably see a half mad and passionate writer struggling to fit into society 😅

Ah….for me, this brought the idea of standing in front of the mirror some days and thinking, “How did you come along?”

I think this comes from time to time… seeing yourself as others do maybe.

That would be an interesting puzzle to contemplate!

It makes me imagine what might have transpired after that interaction. Everyone has a story. I think about how much we could learn from each other…we are all puzzles, I suppose.
