Intuition has a mind of her own,
and a single line song running through her life
and ours:
"If you knew what you were doing
you'd be listening to me
instead of you, honey."

And the entire audiance
shouts a loud, AMEN TO THAT!

We know what we know too late
to avoid all the wrong turns and dead ends,
but. 

Here we are with what we have left
of the life to be lived,
why not give her a chance
to show her stuff
while the light lasts?

Now is a great time to say,
"Show me what you got,
I'm on your side at last!"

And get out of the way.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
