Lives and a dream...


I don't know if we all think about the fact that there are activities we won't be participating in during this lifetime... and lives we won't be leading. This illustration reminds me that I will not ever be yachting... nor playing golf. That's just not me.

And last night I dreamed that Mrs. Bear and I were visiting New York City, using the elevator to get to the top of the Empire State Building. As we rose, people asked us why we had our cat Munchy with us and I responded, "Oh, he goes EVERYWHERE with us!"

Munchy says YRRRRROORRW! - which means you can bet on that.
