Thoughts on Turning 50
Itâs like when youâre in the shower and canât remember if you already shampooed your hair, so you do it again anyway and as youâre doing it you feel a bit of dĂŠjĂ vu, but you canât tell if itâs because you already did just shampoo your hair or if itâs because youâve shampooed your hair a thousandâor a hundred thousand!âtimes before, or if itâs because you have forgotten just as many times before whether or not you shampooed your hair,  then shampooing (perhaps again) just in case, because what difference does it make and itâs always better to be safe (with clean hair) then sorry (with possibly dirty hair)âwhich inevitably leads to the realization that youâre giving all this shampooed/ not shampooed business way too much thought. But at least it passes the time in the shower while you forget (perhaps again?) whether or not you just shampooed your hair.
Itâs like that.Â
