There have been many animals in my life, from when I was a child, to now, as a middle-aged adult. OK, maybe a retired adult is more truthful. I’m currently 58, getting closer and closer to 59. Wow, how did that happen?

Oh, it happened, wrinkle by wrinkle, white hair by white hair, but slowly … Anyway, age is just a number, you’re only as old as you feel, etc, etc. The truth of it is that my life feels like an interesting platter of life and death, procreation, games, different ways of being, and lessons to be learnt for my benefit if I pay proper attention.
