The meeting I didn't attend

Written last night:
Dear Friends,
Yesterday I walked to a meeting about efforts to promote the arts in Sacramento. It was near where I live and I am interested in the subject. But I walked in and saw all these booths set up, and people in suits and with tired faces — it was 5:30 p.m., and they must have been working all day. This was a great meeting on a great topic  — and I didn’t have to be there. So I left. On the way home I walked through the rose garden, fully abloom in Capitol Park, and almost home I got a text inviting me to join my neighbor for a hamburger, and I said yes. That’s what being retired is.
Love,
k
