Heed the words before it's too late. "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." ---Mark Twain What are you waiting for Mooron, DSK, BB, Gaynzy, Katysails, Ole Thom, Ozone and all the rest of you who talk more than you sail? Respectfully, Capt. Neal ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

But the water around my mooring are constantly changing.
There are always new beer cans, turds floating and laying on the bottom, different arrangements of toilet paper on the bottom, luxurious growths of sea grass because of the fertilizer, schools of plump catfish swimming around, oil slicks, orange peels, banana peels, odd bits of old line, rusty anchor chain, tin cans, etc. to look at. There's even a manatee or two from time to time. Or is that Miss Mo'lissa stalking me? CN "Lady Pilot" wrote in message news:ZwQUd.16649$ds.4978@okepread07...

Scout And he was right. But that was from turning a love and desire into a profession and striving to reach the top, all the while aware of the care and duty involved. After the first decade at the top, one discovers that the joy, delight and wonder have fled. THe next two decades become wearying and an increasing source of cynicism. BEFORE that happens, I suspect people need to discover a new passion (or re-discover an old one). -- Flying Tadpole ------------------------- http://www.ace.net.au/schooner http://music.download.com/timfatchen http://music.download.com/internetopera |
