About this Author

* Arlene * helps shelters for abused women and children.

The older I get, the more I enjoy Saturday mornings. Perhaps it's the quiet solitude that comes with being the first to rise, or maybe it's the unbounded joy of not having to be at work. Either way, the first few hours of a Saturday morning are most enjoyable.

A few weeks ago, I was shuffling toward the basement shack with a steaming cup of coffee in one hand and the morning paper in the other. What began as a typical Saturday morning, turned into one of those lessons that life seems to hand you from time to time. Let me tell you about it.

Thank yo, Arlene for sharing this wonderful story! We all need to get clear and prioritize our lives and how we want to be living it so that at the end, we sigh with contentment over what we did, instead of groan with regret over what we didn't.
