There are times in my life when I realize that I have taken a bull by the horns and loved every minute of it. I realize that I have put myself in a spot where I have few regrets and firmly enjoy my life.
My step great-grandmother was an amazing woman. She lived to be 92 years old and was really the only great-grandparent I knew. She was held a job as a church secretary and drove herself everywhere until almost the end of her life. She collected spoons and had traveled to Africa. When we went to go visit her on Palm Sunday, she had already made all 8 of us a meal at home because the lines were too long at the restaurants. She was 85. Her twin died right before their 90th birthday, which ceased a scheduled Today Show appearance.
I only hope that I can be like if I live that long.
