The Attic of My Life

What's a life?  Mine's gone.  I now have something better, which is happiness.
-A. N. Wilson, A Watch in the Night.

The only thing there is to say,
Every silver lining's got a
Touch of grey.
-Robert Hunter, Touch of Grey.

Housebound by cold weather and sickness, my planned week of annual leave has been an interior moving picture show.  I've read how episodes of one's life return vividly in old age, and now at 56, I begin to understand.
