Background Image
There was a good deal to be said, hilary decided, for middle age and infirmity. the years in which one demanded much of life were left behind, together with the bitterness of not getting what one wanted. one's values, too, were altered. gifts that once one took for granted, sunshine and birdsong, freedom from pain, sleep and one's daily bread, seemed now so extraordinarily precious.
