Exorcising the Dishonour of my Past

Memes aside, I was drilling earlier with my colleagues, and I felt a wave of … Pride? Relief Happiness? Fulfilment/Achievement?

Perhaps the Germans have a word for “The realisation that you have accomplished what you never had the chance to do properly before and attain a prestigious achievement that overshadows failures of your past”?

Perhaps one could call it a career based orgasm? Or more like the feeling of being whole once more.

I feel like a ghost who had unfinished business, and managed to see it resolved, confirming and affirming the promises made to a younger Me.

Not just what has happened in recent times, but also the perspective of everything that I managed to accomplish so far…

Auspicious, just in time for my 63th birthday next month.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank You.

You’re welcome.
