Wow! I know, That's not the correct way to begin a story, but, it's how this one begins.
I'M NOT "old" I'm a middle aged woman, in my family, a little beyond middle I guess, 65-72, seems to be the "range", so, at 41, I'm over Mid-Way. And, I'm Still learning basic fundamentals of life.
Forgive those who hurt you, not for them, but, for you. Do Not judge others. Sounds easy enough, right? Something taught to children as Soon as they can start to understand. Something, everyone deals with Every Single Day. Yet, closer to death than life, I've found, I Still don't get it... until Now.
Sound crazy? That's ok, I Am crazy, according to "modern medicine". I have a disorder called Graves Disease. It effects your brain, causing stroke like lesions, and other issues. Something that, a person who is an Actual genius by i.q. has a hard time swallowing. However, Knowledge can be Very Dangerous. Knowing Too much, having a memory that works Too well, is Actually a curse, in most cases. It means, no matter who did what, you never forget. I am becoming "an airhead" and, it's difficult to accept, However, there's a certain amount of happiness that comes with my failing rollodex in my head.
