No end to discovery.

I've known a particular neighbor for years and years. A long time. But really don't know her. In many ways. Because I keep discovering things. Such as, she's an accomplished swimmer. Swims across Forest Lake and in and out of a three-lake chain. Yes, literally swims miles. Non-stop. Her husband often follows her. In a pontoon boat. He's not much of a swimmer. Maybe can stay afloat for a couple hundred yards. All this is unimportant tidbit in the grand scheme of life, I suppose. But to me, it's interesting. I like to know things. Little things. About the people around me. Even about strangers. I like to discover something new. Every day. Maybe every minute. There's no end to discovery. --Jim Broede
