Good morning, hope you are well.

The older we get, the less leverage we have in life....unfortunately. Try walking into a store. If you are the oldest customer, chances are you will be ignored. Perhaps half empty....but still going strong. Lydi**

one can read more that one thing in these brilliantly written words, boredom, routine, desperation, and yet again emptiness can make You feel like this, but what I can sense also here, when someone is living in isolation, when they, live/think/feel not like all people, they will at some point feels that the wrong is within them, their life is not as the life of others. and I say there is nothing wrong with You Mr. Jacob, You are a true poet and a special human being that's all.
