First Trolley-pulling After the Fall
This is an image of 2012.
My straw hat now tattered
And backpack worn.
The me 5 years younger
Could climb any mountain,
But last-night me feared even a fall.

Heartbreakingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks, dear Miriam, I am 85% okay now. 😉
The picture reminds me of Zhu Ziqing’s essay “Retreating Figure” (Image of the Back). I still remember that article.
Ah yes …
That essay did not evoke that much sentiment in me back then. I can feel it more now, having witnessed Dad growing frail and me feeling on the gradual onset of old age. 😉
It did when he was walking to the departure gate with a limp some decades ago.
New find! The picture is linked to a never watched interview.🙃
Yes, there are 3 episodes altogether. An excellent production, by HKSTV. At 1:44, you can see the photo you took of me at Death Valley, in 1998? 🙂
Unfortunately no time to add English sub-titles. 😦
Excellent videos. We found four. We watched and downloaded.🙂
We saw Doggie. 🐾🐾
