The Empty Nest Syndrome

The days flowed like a river into the ocean of years.
Each one of us have made our own lives and the three of us have retired from our teaching jobs.
The children as well are grown-ups now and most of them have their own families too.
The grandchildren did not take long in coming.
We are hoping that we will have the rest of our loves to spend enjoying their company.

In the latter years of marriage, as children began to leave home, there is the unselfconscious awareness that life together has been good and that marriage, in all its challenges and in all its pain, it's hard work and its exquisite joys is truly a wonderful way of life.

Have our lives truly come full circle?
