Midday AARP Roundup: "Lonely Is A Freedom"

By Beth Carpenter, August 13, 2010 03:30 PM


Take a few minutes to watch this lovely poem made into a video... and as we go into the weekend, take some time to be alone. That's my plan, anyhow. Enjoy the present, right? Our really fantastic Facebook commenters reminded me of this the other day, when I just wanted it to be Friday and the week to be over.
Midday headlines... Lots more firepower headed to the U.S.-Mexico border; that BP well... still not completely plugged; and retail sales numbers are up, mostly on the strength of quite a few automobile purchases.
Because if you're happy in your head, then solitude is blessed, and alone is okay. Watch the video. Happy Friday.
