Things that I tell myself.

I’d rather live than die.  That’s my conclusion. Every time I visit a dying person. I leave. With a greater resolve. To make the most of my remaining days. Which means. Finding ways to be reasonably happy and content. With life.  Also. I tell myself to not be in a hurry.  To slow down. To take my time. To proceed at a leisurely pace. In accomplishing my goals. As a romantic idealist, a spiritual free-thinker, a political liberal, a lover and a dreamer. --Jim Broede
