I changed my profile picture today at work
so I'd look young, engaged and energetic
as I prepared for retirement in less than 5 months.
I want to be remembered this way even as I
feel my motivation and enthusiasm dipping,
as my heart moves towards babies that will
inherit this broken world, who don't deserve
what we have made,
I can at least love them and guide them to
change the world for the better, just as I hoped
I had done with my own.
I still have a long road, to look out with
eagerness and energy to make the world a better
place, in a broader way than helping us find
the stars when our earth needs us more.
