This Is So True

“There are those of us who are always about to live. We are waiting until things change, until there is more time, until we are less tired, until we get a promotion, until we settle down — until, until, until. It always seems as if there is some major event that must occur in our lives before we begin living.” - George Sheehan

I'm going to start living right after I get one of these great College Degrees in 2 weeks!

Wow! I can hardly wait! PHD sounds good.

(good quote by the way...)

Very true. Sadly you can't wait until. . .

I think you need to fill in the living (the stuff that give meaning to our lives) into between life. I know there are seasons to everything, however we sometime take that as an excuse.

I have heard it's the journey not the destination that counts. We need to take those amazing detours on our journey, even if it is 5 minutes to read, draw, stop and look. Okay I am rambling. I am getting too old (not that old) to ignore the skills I want to try. I find it hard to fit it into my day, but try I do everyday.

I love your work BTW.
