"Take only memories;
leave only footprints."
The Modern Day Hippie
I've heard tell we spend
the first half of our lives in
accumulation and the second
half in ridding.
It occurs to me that I could
have traveled the world over
with the shekels I've spent
on acquisition. Rather breaks
my heart to think of it.
These thoughts are nothing
new. Bet every oldster in the
world feels the same. Naught
can be done about it now. And,
it may be a lesson that each of
us needs to learn.
So, where do I go from here?
Going to spend some time in
the memories arena, that's for
certain!
And here's hoping there will
be a few good footprints to
leave behind . . .
