I confessed recently to an old friend,
"I realized I was looking at you,
in your visit, through old glasses.
Speaking old words.
Telling old stories.
I realize that in my life I've made so many
physical changes and I need to give my spirit time to catch up."

through the new glasses of current life experiences.

in the currentness of life experiences
and not relegated to the past in which they once lived.
