Hello Mo,

Wonderful piece of pondering! As I read, I started to giggle....my goodness, girl, you are so much like myself at your age! Now, some may say you need a 'focus', but my experience (hindsight is 20/20) is that those 'squirrelly' days are priceless; those times are teaching! You are learning.....about everything you are looking for in life. So, learn!!! With that, what your father may be trying to impart: Just don't fly so fast that you miss where you've been (you'll want those moments to reflect on later) and not everything needs to be accomplished all at once. No reinventing the wheel--what happens in life happens, whether we are chasing it or not. Go with the flow, like a river....enjoy those smooth parts, but take heed of the rapids, they can knock you out of the boat and change your float. (Hope that makes sense...my eyes are tired today.) Like me, you will come to an age soon enough to 'sit your butt down' and all your experience chasing...will make THE BEST stories for your grandkids! For always, take it all in, know that not everything can be orchestrated, and what is meant for you will come whether you are chasing it or not! Love you and blessings, ~Wendy💜
