For 10 Years

A long-held debt is gone today. That balance got large because of personal mis-steps and unexplained avoidances.

I have been on hold since it was created, as making money was tough for a number of reasons before I retired.

I have had three financial breakdowns in my life. They have eaten up a third of my life.

But I'm debt-free now. I'm also old now.

The first thing I did was cry. For a lot of time gone by. And for the relief of finally being done with it.

At the same time I'm aware that I can't just pick up and resume as though nothing has changed. 

A LOT is changed. Some of it can't be recovered from.

Now, I'm trying to figure out what's supposed to come next.If there IS a next.
