The Road to Forever

At what point did time start moving so fast? I've neglected this site so badly that my one or two readers are probably off reading something else at this point...

I'll pause a moment for them to come back...

Hmmmm... just a moment more, then I gotta move on with this.

Hello? Okay, well, I guess we're the only ones here now.

So my life these days has been consumed by the bike, Gilda's Club and the job that I really don't like. And because summer nights always get me in a contemplative mood, here I am contemplating things...

I met an amazing woman Saturday - Heidi Adams, the brains behind www.planetcancer.com. Although we have communicated via e-mail on occasion (mostly my saying that she really needed to have my book for sale on her website!), she probably didn't recognize me or my name. Nonetheless, she asked me what I was up to, and I told her about the job and the Gilda's Riders event. Her response - so you're still feeding your soul - nailed where I seem to be right now.

I feel like I am momentarily caught in a job that nurtures mediocrity. And my destiny is far from simple mediocrity - I truly feel that I am destined for greatness... but I need to find that greatness and let it out.

Gilda's Riders is a good step in that direction, and I try to keep that in mind.

Yep. Greatness is within my grasp... I just need to quit flailing about and grab the damn thing!

In the meantime, I'll bide my time, enjoy each day for what it is worth and watch the cosmos for opportunities of brilliance...
