#PoetryPosts – The Autumn of Life: Growing Old is Scary

I took this photo in New Zealand. The elderly couple were casually chatting and looking out over the water. It was a lovely snapshot of old age, the kind people hope to see in their own lives. But the snapshot doesn’t show the troubles of getting old. Maybe it gets harder and harder to walk to the bench each day or to get up from sitting down too long. I don’t want to turn this pleasant memory…

I forgot I had a tumblr...

And it’s pretty interesting reading about my thoughts and concerns from four years ago.  I forgot how worried and scared I was.  It was definitely intense to move to a new environment and to have my image of Japan being this magical fun place be shattered and rebuilt.  I wouldn’t say I have a negative image of Japan, but it’s certainly not all magical or fun and I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life here.  However, I’m grateful for the friends I’ve made here, and I love my job and current life, so I wanna enjoy it for as long as I can.    For some reasons, I had no desire to draw or make anything outside of my job for about two years, but I recently felt that itch again.  Hoping I can share something soon ^^

things that use to really scare me but now aren’t so scary

the elderly

talking about Jesus

meeting new people

Running activities like the Climbing Tower or one of the three zip lines on camp (be safe. super safe. lives in my hands. ahhhh) 

hugging

teaching a group of 8 year olds to fish                                                                     (still scary, so many hooks, so many places to hook)
