I’ve got to that interesting stage in my life in many ways amazing. The wisdom that lets itself in is quite something.
I’m sure most of us have heard someone say ‘ knowing what I know now’ in respect to having the ability to go back in time and relive some of those years.
Yeah, if only in hindsight, we could live those lives differently. I may have chosen to be less generous. But hey.
And yet it wouldn’t have brought me to where I am now. And if we’re comfortable in our skins, we can be grateful for those experiences that led us to this point. Can’t we?
Funding our lives is a bit of a challenge, it has to be said…admitted at some stage. If I am going to be transparent and authentic with you.
Patch and his needs cost me the earth. But what he gives me on return is truly priceless.
If push came to shove, I’d sell my soul for him.
Money cannot buy true humbleness. Can it?
To be honest I think money is a true friendship/relationship test. I too think that had I been less generous I would have known who my real people are x

What a beautiful reflection. It’s true, isn’t it? Hindsight can tempt us to rewrite the past, but every twist and stumble is what carved the wisdom we carry now. Feeling comfortable in our own skin feels like a real treasure, one earned the hard way.
And as for Patches, ah, the price of love measured in vet bills and devotion! But you’re right, what they give us back can’t be weighed in money. That kind of loyalty and humbleness is the richest wealth of all. 🧡
