As I’ve aged I have become more cautious. Experience has given me good judgment. Good judgment often came as the result of bad judgment. My life has been in a very comfortable place for the past few years and continues to be in that space despite all that happened last year. It would be very easy to develop a “don’t rock the boat” philosophy. Still, the wisdom I’ve gained over the years tells me that I did not get to where I am by being overly cautious. The only time you are truly safe in a boat is when it’s in dry dock or beached like the one in the photo. Real boats rock.
Each of us has to figure out how much movement we can tolerate. I intend to keep rocking as long as I can. That’s where the enjoyment is.
