No More Calls

When our kids were young, a favorite sport was pestering each other. When they got to the end of their latest clever repartee they would cap it with "no more calls" or if a physical pestering: "no tap backs." I would guess this was to insure there would not be an instant change in their status.

As they matured and put on their "grown up shoes," in order to step into responsible adulthood (or at least wander off in that direction,) I am sure some have noticed this talisman against a reversal of fortune has become even less effective than it was in childhood.

Life does not come with a rewind button.
Not even a pause.
Stay tuned to your life today. It's what is happening to you while you make other plans. Love more. Laugh more. Worry less. Enjoy what you have. You might lose. But more important, you might win.

Dad
