Let me reintroduce myself. It has been a while since my last post.
How to make myself sound interesting, and not bitter. That is my first goal. It is a tough job, but I think I can do it.
I am a man born in the middle of the baby boom years, looking forward to retirement and all the peace and quiet that I hope it will bring. I don't have any illusions that it will really be the golden years, but I have hopes of days spent only doing things that I like to do. What a concept.
I also want to do more with my life. I find the greatest joy and fulfillment I get is when I do something for other people. Maybe it is the strong Lutheran upbringing that makes me want to give back to society. Maybe it is being a child of the sixties. That was an era when all right-thinking men and women wanted to do nothing but make the world a better place (and maybe get high).
I don't necessarily expect to do great things, but I would like to do good things (or good works as they are sometimes called). Now I just have to decide what these good things should be. If you have any ideas for me, feel free to post them in the comments section.
I can't save the world in a day, but I can sure try to do my little bit every day. Maybe I'll volunteer at a shelter or at the Salvation Army? Maybe I will work at the local community center??? Maybe I could even work on one of the presidential campaigns? So many choices.
Maybe I can decide all this tomorrow. That sounds like my best idea yet!
