Longing

TL

I snagged this picture from a social media site. Perhaps it’s just that it’s late and I’m longing for bed. Perhaps it’s that I’ve given a lot of thought to this sort of thing lately. Whatever the reason I was struck when I read this that it was far more accurate than it had any right to be and that I needed to get out and read more of what this man had to say.

The longer I go, the more I find there are so many topics I should have studied or things I really should have remembered. Perhaps if I’d seen this sentiment earlier in my life it would have changed things? Is that something a person really wants – to go back and change things? I seem to recall a quote about pulling away one thread unraveling the entire tapestry that is your life – you would lose part of what makes you the person you are today.

I have no idea what I’ll think of Mr. Leary after a little reading time. I’ll at least learn something, and that in and of itself isn’t a bad thing.
