Life as it was feels like it's beginning to blossom, each petal unfolding with another adventure, new knowledge, new friends. The past is merging with the future and it creates my present. Here I am happy. The challenges I face slowly die away as more and more effort is taken. I should realize that guilt will only inhibit progress. Satisfaction results when something challenging becomes second nature. Easy. One more wilted petal drifting to the earth.
