Been Around


Age gaps sure are noticeable when it comes to the “I” generation.
Every conversation gets interrupted with, “Oh I did this or I did that.”
Bragging rights or a big ego? A bit of both perhaps.
I keep quiet.
A past family member I recalled today used to make conversations circle around her with her constant inappropriate anecdotal reminiscing.
Which made me think. Years ago after reading Eckart Tolle’s, A New Earth, Awakening to Your Life's Purpose I realized “I” don’t need to be “I’ing all that me, me, me, stuff anymore.
The time is now. Time now for the listening. 
I've already been around.

Suppose you can look at it that way. Also to accept what is and around you and to be content so no matter what anyone else says you're ok with who you are. No competition for acceptance anotherwards...
