Self in the Spotlight

A Sunday evening drink with old school friends is a lovely way to give some perspective on life. A chance to reflect on forgotten goals and aspirations.
The two people I spent the evening with are both living their dreams - more so than anyone else I have ever known. How can anyone be anything but envious of that?
But then again I had no such dreams. Instead I sought enlightenment and contentment - and have solidly found the latter even if the former is an ongoing life challenge.
20-odd years on… No regrets, life turned out good! It’s always nice to realise that!
