For a moment, think about a meal that you really, really love. How do you eat it? Is it slow, taking in every wonder of the smells and sights and tastes? Or are you ravenous and can't get enough? If you can imagine the Tasmanian devil cartoon character after he's eaten through every tree, rock and house, when he stops spinning, his chest heaving up and down, looking around for more. Yup, that's me....but I can also be the deliberate, suave "peppe le pue", savoring and loving each tender morsel. Both ways are equally satisfying. What can we learn from "Taz" and "Peppe"? Sometimes you gotta go full tilt and carpe diem and other times, sit and wait for the special moments and absorb it all until you feel like your gonna burst....Life rambles on whether you want it to or not, just remember to enjoy the ride!

Ramblin on....
The flashing cursor shouts at me each time it blinks on and off, "Write! Write! Write!" and I shout back with "I will! I will! I will!" The cursor tormenting me into submission, I can no longer help myself...
Its almost July....where did June go? I know, in a few weeks I'll be asking where July went. Funny how that works...that's why 80 year olds will tell us young'ins that life goes by so quick but we won't believe them until were 80 yrs old telling the 30 somethin's to cherish each moment b/c life is too short. I know the sun will rise and it will set each and every day...its not like I can slow the sun down. We're not given any extra hours in any particular day. So what are we supposed to do?? Somehow, someway, it all goes back to food....
