Life wastes itself while we are preparing to live. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Each day my goal is to ask myself the question, Am I willing to trade this day of my life for what I am planning to do? At the end of the day, I reflect on the bargain that I made.
Today, with my grandson, I played checkers; planted pole beans; helped him learn how to operate a manual planter for seeding green beans; and we planted his speckled beans. We also followed the Kill Deer watching her 'wounded bird' ploy as she led us away from her nest and drank the cold water we carried in the knapsack. What a bargain and investment, not to mention the pleasure and satisfaction.
