Parts of my life I likely won’t be doing again

For me, this stage of winding down, or at least refocusing, includes recognizing realities of aging and finances while living in a remote area of the country. Here are some things I’d say are in my past, no matter how actively I pursued them:

1. Hiking to the top of a mountain.
2. Climbing a ladder more than a few steps.
3. Hearing a full symphony orchestra in person.
4. Ditto for attending an opera.
5. Peyote, psilocybin, or acid. Not this far after taking up meditation.
6. Some of the easier hatha yoga positions. Forget even attempting the harder ones.
7. Writing and revising another novel.
8. Sending out resumes.
9. Camping in a tent or out in the open under the stars.
10. Prolific orgasms.
