I'd rather be me than Caesar.

I feel more privileged and more blessed than Julius Caesar. In that I will move in less than 20 hours on Saturday from Italy to Minnesota. That’s something Caesar never dreamed of doing. Just to plod a few miles or to hop a ride across town in a chariot  took more time than that. And every year I keep going back and forth. To be able to live with my Italian true love in two different countries on two different continents and across an ocean. Caesar also never had an aerial view of Rome. Like l do. Another thing. Caesar is dead. And I’m alive. I have absolutely no desire to change places with Caesar. –Jim Broede
