I Don't Want To Die Without Knowing

I Believe People Have Different Ways Of Approaching The Word. For Me, It's Metaphor, Written By People A Long Time After Christ Died And Interpreted By Specific Groups. I Read The Gospels That Aren't Included In The Bible. These Make Me Feel Good About Calling Myself A Christian.

I Have Always Been With Men Who Were Type A, Alpha Males. I Must Exist Because I'm With Him, I'd Think. But What Made Them What They Were Also Often Meant They Were Lacking Empathy Genes. And Now I Know I Don't Need An Alpha Male; I Need Somebody Who's Interesting. I'm Not Pretending That I'm 100 Percent Healed, So I Might Not Know If A Man Is Right For Me Right Away, But It Wouldn't Take Me Seven Years To Figure It Out. Maybe A Month Or Two.

I Like To Think Both - It's Not Either/or. It's And.

I Think I Look Good For My Age. I've Always Looked Younger Than I Really Am. I'm 67 And I Look About, Maybe 62 Or Something Like That. And I Think My Healthy Lifestyle Has Paid Off. I Suffer From Osteoarthritis. That's Genetic And There's Nothing I Can Do About That, Except To Try And Not Jump Up And Down, But Rather Swim And Bike, Instead Of Jumping Up And Down.

I'd Like To Think That I Have Integrity.
