GIVE UP: The older I get the more life feels like it knows what it's doing. Sure, day to day, life is a mess. Even week to week. Hell, maybe even year to year. But somehow this mystical "grand scheme of things" you hear people talking about...well, the older I get, the more I buy into it. And the nice thing about feeling this way is I get to just sort of give up, to lay back in life's big arms and enjoy the ride. At least that's how I feel today.
