Peter's Story
Okay, I guess this is where we're supposed to talk about ourselves; where we were, where we're going and who we've become. Never been good at that, but as the Grateful Dead once said "what a long strange trip it's been".
Some wins, some losses, some regrets and some "Rosebud" moments. Thanks Citizen Kane. You were over rated, but I'll always remember my red flexi flyer.
For me it was the adventure. Cowhippie 101. Always another mountain to climb, another sunset to see, another journey to take. Different roads for different days. Nothing better than a dusty someplace in the middle of nowhere. Capraesque. Another "lost Horizon", another Xanadu.
I'll never forget my years in Colorado and Wyoming, or for that matter the Eastern Sierra; hiked all over ...Expand for more
the map. Even the ticks and no-see-ums had their moments. To stand where others stood a thousand years ago and see the same sunrise, the same sunsets and walk the same trails. A gift. Thanks Ed (Abbey). You showed me the way.
This is what stays with you, the adventures, the life lived.
It was and never has been the money, the status or the power. Even when Orson owned Nepenthe he couldn't buy Rita's love.
Carpe diem.
Life's a journey. Make yours a good one. When it's all over may you have your "Rosebud", no regrets, no looking back, no living in the past. Choose what's real to you and as Picard said "make it so".
Move on, move forward and hang on for the ride.
The rest is crap.
Walk in balance. It's the hardest dance you will ever do.
Peace.
