I woke up to the thoughts that because I am older ... should I forget my dreams, wishes, hopes?
Should I just lay down, die as soon as possible because there's no room for an older person's dreams, wishes, hopes.
Am I too old to accomplish anything in the rest of my life? Should I sit like a piece of furniture without thoughts until I take my last breath?
I sat, thought about this. Hell no! I'm not letting go of any of my dreams, hopes, wishes. Even if they don't come true ... they drive me to be the best I can be while I live each day of my life ... to the end.
Maybe ... there will be one or two people to remember me, think that I was a good person while I lived. Better yet, somehow touching their life in a positive way.
I will keep dreaming ... I'm not too old. I will wish for things I hope will come true in life for Skip and I ... our Pups.
What drives me to be that way? I love life, I wish for good in my life ... my world, my loved ones. What drives me is ... pure Hope.

I will keep dreaming, wishing and hoping for all the days of my life ... no matter how old. I do know dreams can come true ... miracles can/will happen.
You have definitely left a wonderful and remarkable impression on me! You have made such a difference in my life. My life would not be the same without you in it. So-----no you do not need to be on a shelf the rest of your life!!!! Love, Ms. Nancy
