Things I’ll Never Do
Daily Life April 22nd, 2003There’s some things in life I won’t have time to do. I’ll never be able to bust perfect flares, halos, or a windmill (that’s breakdancing.) I doubt I’ll have time to build my own hotrod. It’s too late to be a ninja.
As a kid, I’d lay in the pastures of our little farm, dreaming about all the adventures I wanted to take, just like “The Little Koala” did on Nickelodeon.; Or the Hardee Boys and MacGyver. Those guys did all kinds of cool stuff. I can do all that, now. I am grown up. Adventures aren’t confined to the woods behind my house. I have more tools than a hammer and some roofing nails.
I’m not really MacGyver, but I do cool stuff. I travel around the world, meet all kinds of crazy cool people. You could hand me a map of the U.S.A., and I’d tell you of the adventures I’ve had from ocean to ocean.; When you are grown up, I’ll tell you the full stories of what happened in some of those places. The Apostles didn’t just skip around from one PG adventure to the next. I’ve flown in helicopters, driven WAY TO FAST IN cool cars. I’ve been on safaris. Five of them, actually.
Though part of me is disappointed that I’ll never do some things, that washes away when I think about what I AM doing.
