That's a good way to describe it AMN, getting rid of the JUNK we don't need to be dragging around with us anymore.  I said this to my sister a few years ago. She is 13 years older than me. I did ask her if the things you used to care about are changing and she said yes too. |
It is junk. A lot of junk. I'm facing increased disability with MS and my priorities are very different from what I ever imagined, so much so, that I'm in a sea of confusion as to what actually matters to me. The only real decision I've made lately is that my brakes are due for maintenance, and I guess I should do it. Sheesh, it took all my mental energy to arrive at the obvious conclusion!
My friendships are changing, some are slipping away and I feel like it's because I just have nothing interesting to say anymore. I dunno, I've always been the energy source among my people, and I'm plumb wore out.
I still make plans and everything, it just seems like this is someone else's life.
