The burdens of life become greater and greater as we become less
and less able to bear them. The older I get
the more I have to bear up under. Not only
are there more people who I love more than my own life; the progression, my
wife; my four children; their three spouses; six grandchildren and counting; and each coming with their own set of burdens that bear heavily upon me. There are also life issues that must be
solved, retirement, health, and aging parent.
And all the while I am getting older and much less physically able to
carry loads, either physical or emotional.
At times I feel like an old donkey under a heavy load, just standing on
the trail, lopped eared and hanged headed.
One of the greatest secrets in life is finding the right yoke to help
haul the load. Ergonomics for the aging
was invented in a carpenters shop in Nazareth.
