I want to put this “aging” on hold for awhile now.
I don’t expect to be on the A team anymore;  but I want to play golf with you.  And I want to fish or throw shoes.  And I want to rejoice in your victories be they political, or business, or family happiness victories.  And I want to be there for you if you get a bad bounce in life, and no doubt you will for the seas do indeed get rough.  When I say “be there” I don’t mean just showing up — I mean in the game, in the lineup, viscerally involved in your lives even though I might be miles away.
