Thought for the Day


Life is not a journey to the grave
with the intention of arriving safely
 in a pretty and well-preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out and
loudly proclaiming
 "Wow....What a ride!"

I saw this years ago, laughed and thought not a bad sentiment.  When I saw it again today, it had much more resonance.  Because I'm older? it's fall? I've just finished a grueling 5 days of drastic diet?  Probably the last.

  1. Drastic diet?
    That does not sound fun.
    Is it followed by 5 days of dreamy dessert?
