Prose

As I was going through my morning email and news, I came across the following: Mark Twain so brilliantly reminds us: "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things 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." I agree. That is precisely what I have done. I have disappointments- but not by my doing. I've done everything I wanted to do, and have no regrets. I've done things in the last 20 years some never get to do in a life time. I've been on a mission to experience as much as I can, to go as many places and do things that were once only a dream. Longevity does not run in my family. That being said, I will continue to follow my dreams. I've Explored, Dreamt and Discovered. Now I am left me with a longing to do more- for others. My heart is full. I would like to spend the rest of my days/years giving back what has graciously been given to me.
