So says Roger Rosenblatt in a charming 10/26/25 article (https://bit.ly/47FMSIm)
He tells us that he used to always look ahead for whatever would befall him. No longer–now he looks at what he has.
Long-time English Professor, columnist and more, Rosenblatt reports that among other current activities, he plays the piano and recites poetry to his wife Ginny.
I don’t have a piano or a wife, but I can try even harder to be grateful for what I do have.
That wisdom is timeless.
This was a wonderful read. Thank you for sharing.
Good read and at a time I needed it. One,: I turn 85 on the 25th of this month, Two,: I lost my wife of 62+ years the end of July and Three: My children remind me to stay positive. I haven’t quite figured out what hobby to immerse myself in to keep from just sitting and thinking. So your timing is perfect for a read such as this. One day at a time. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks, Judy, enjoyed reading that. In return I’d like to share with you a video I recently enjoyed showing the daily morning routine of a 93-year-old woman in Japan, recorded by her grandson. He has recorded other ones about her previously. She has lots of little daily rituals and seems to have a very nice life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFN0frq1WhU
