Never dipped toast in hot chocolate, cowboy but it sounds like a winner. Especially cinnamon toast, I should think! I loved your statement about setting your sail for 55 or die trying! I'd say you are a man of action and it certainly works for you! You reminded me of one of my favorite poems which I'll post below.
I too thank you for a week of good quotes, Jude. Today's reminds me of how important and powerful our thoughts are. Ideas are just thoughts and yet they can lead us to where we want to be and where we ought to go! Most important part of the quote is that we can CHOOSE them!
Committing to another 24.
Here's the poem I mentioned:
One Ship Sails East
by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
But to every mind there openeth,
A way, and way, and away,
A high soul climbs the highway,
And the low soul gropes the low,
And in between on the misty flats,
The rest drift to and fro.
But to every man there openeth,
A high way and a low,
And every mind decideth,
The way his soul shall go.
One ship sails East,
And another West,
By the self-same winds that blow,
'Tis the set of the sails
And not the gales,
That tells the way we go.
Like the winds of the sea
Are the waves of time,
As we journey along through life,
'Tis the set of the soul,
That determines the goal,
And not the calm or the strife.
