NFR Life is for the Living, not the Existing.

I'm much more cautious than when young, and even more so since my swim a couple winters ago. Nice to be able to just be there. This one and her mom had a go yesterday evening. Papa's here.

Not having kids, gives me a little more freedom to push it. And I'm not gonna do anything rash.. as far as parachuting, it's not the fall that kills you.. it's that sudden stop at the bottom! Or when the guy seeing a guy falling off of a building, and shouts "How's it going?"

"So far, so good!" (he must be a winter steelheader)

Get busy living, or get busy dying! Ranger's lead the way! (no I wasn't in the military!}

Don't wait. Make plans for yourself and do "stuff" for as long as you can and as much as you can while you're young, middle aged and after you reach geezerhood...
I'm glad I did.

You never know when you might get to a point where for whatever reason, you can't.

Ram Das wrote a thoughtful book in 71' called 'Be Here Now', about creating a consciousness that maintains a full appreciation of the moment, l.e. no matter if you're mid-stream casting or just mowing the lawn, appreciate every moment possible while you are still here to do so.

I am more of a Kahlil Gibran follower. They are shorter and easier to memorize.

 

[Peyton00]

A man who dares to waste one hour of time, has not discovered the value of life.

The time you enjoy wasting, is not wasted time.

Sometimes there is a clarity that can only be had by continually failing.

When we were married in 1976 we did so in a court house and writing our own vows. And a poem addition:
“Love is a volcano, on whose top never grows the grass of hesitation.


Well it lasted 37 years sort of…

I beg to differ I am anal retentive

I meant to say constipated.

Just remember the Jimmy V speech.

And make the plans early enough for things.... or learn to be more spontaneous.
