Another Look at Mid-Life

Is the glass half-full,

or half-empty?

Look closer,

you will find,

there is a middle place,

a place of procrastination,

hesitation,

looking down,

while reaching up,

standing still,

putting everything on hold,

lack of direction.

There is also,

satisfaction,

in this place,

peace and calm,

no worries,

rest,

ability to see both sides.

The middle ground.

This is me.
