Gents,


I recently turned 63.

I like this :

A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams. ~John Barrymore


I hesitate to use the word "can't". Most of us are capable of doing many things. However, the cost of doing some things are not worth the effort in time, money or upheaval of ones life, can border on being irresponsible, even fool-hardy.


Over the years I've watched many folk.

I decided a number of years ago to learn to take pleasure in the moment, whether things were grand or simple.

I say my goal is to become a "professional small boy"

Hopefully I can maintain the same sense of wonder and enthusiasm in regards to the world around me as my 6 yr. old grandson does.

No, I'll probably not go to Africa on Safari, or hunt Tahr in New Zealand. May never go to Argentina or Alaska to hunt.

But that does not mean one cannot make the most of each day.

I like what TR is supposed to have said........




Thanks to Saeed for a forum such as AR that allows me to express and share that enjoyment.


and thank "youse guys" for the kind words and sentiment.


JAPPF,

Just glad to have you here, Geedubya!

Amen Geedubya. Thanks for expressing what I lack the ability to articulate.
