Exactly, Lil. I was thinking of my father tonight...who died at 36...an age that I am rapidly approaching. I was wondering (1) what would he have done if he lived longer? and (2) what would I have wanted for myself when I was his age?
I think so many of us live inside our heads and not actively in the world around us....and I am guilty of that upon occasion.
