Just today I winced as a menacing soreness in my back appeared on the side I don’t typically…and you’re right, we do need to become friends with aging.

I think you’re handling it like a pro—I’m highly annoyed by the impatient friends, but once again, you graciously excused them and placed some responsibility on you. I admire that—

But I also admire that you never try to cause others trouble—and you’re not.

You deserve time, kindness, love, patience-whether young or older, partly disabled or full—I think this world needs so much more patience.

Much love to you! Keep well Ellen
