We always seem to be looking for the way.          .          .

or at least a new way,

A R E N ‘ T     W E ?

A path.          .          .

 In search of some wild and promiseful destinations.          .        .

And what do we find?

Just exactly  W H E R E   do our searches take us.          .          ?

What discoveries have we made when we set off for such a destination?

Could it be true

Is it even vastly possible

That maybe the greatest destinations

The greatest journeys

Are not those that we’ve set out for;

not those that we have tried to be in search of;

P E R H A P S

J U S T     M A Y B E

P O S S I B L Y

The ones that took us to a place

we absolutely had no idea

we had no way of knowing

we had no intention of going

And  yet  F O U N D

r       e       c       e       i       v       e       d

what we could’ve never gotten

 any other way

from any other place

or any other person.          .          .

Now that’s the

A          D          V          E          N          T          U          R          E

of life

and living

if it teaches us nothing else

it most surely must educate us to the possibility

that some of our best lessons

are those we never signed up

 and learned anyway just by going

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm   of  the  DAY:

Why  expect  the  unexpected  when  you  don’t  do  the  un-do-able.          .          .

Time   to

done

gone

fishing

where  the  fish  have  never  bitten

because they’ve never been fished

.          .          .even one who’s never

line-in-the-water-fished

can’t  much  expect  a  nibble

from  a  line  that  never  gets  near  the

w     a     t     e     r

.            .            .the  impossible  rarely  gets  done

not  because  of  failure

but  just  because  of  zero  attempt (s)

Great   Day   for   E X T R E M E   Fishing

Join   me

(No bait necessary)

You’ll  come  away

with  a
