Man, I could tell you some stories...
In fact, I will.
I'm going to start a list here of stories I want to tell you.
I'll try to get around to telling them.
If any in particular strike you, let me know.

WOW!
There are just so many stories to tell.
If only I can tell them right, you can get so much from them.
Some of them are entrancing.
I spent many years hitchhiking all over north America, sometimes going places I'd never been, just because I'd never been there.
I often left for journeys of thousands of miles to someplace I'd never been and didn't know anyone, with only pennies in my pocket, just because I'd never been there before.
Why?
Because I want to try everything once, twice if I like it.
All of these stories make up the whole of me.
I've been happy, keeping busy doing new things still today.
And to quote some of my favorite lyrics:
"I don't know but I've been told,
If you never slow down you'll never grow old."
Tom Petty, Last Dance for Mary Jane.
Remember this, it's important:
In just a few more minutes, you are going to die.
How many minutes?
I don't know.
Does it matter?
NOW is all you've got.
Get busy.
Do something new with your life.
You can rest when you're dead.
