Taking a slow walk in the neighborhood for errands can really make one think.

Sometimes it might be the right thing to do to pause and carefully examine what you have going on in your life and decide if they are, have become, or should be unobtainable, and to set those aside.

This applies to me because I have been at full speed for years to address many medical issues and conditions whilst my memory is rapidly declining. Does it really add enough value to my life to address some of these medical things, or would quality of life be enhanced by tightening down to what makes sense given the memory loss, and making peace with the decision?

Not shutting down by any means; just being practical.

Sometimes Life gives you more than you feel you can handle,
but somehow you always pull through.
It feels as though someone has lit both ends of your candle,
and you're waiting for Life to drop the other shoe.
