my mother’s wisdom
December 29, 2018
She spent Christmas in Costa Rica with various calabash relatives.
Hit the ground running when she came home, calling everyone to schedule her January.
“I think 80 might be too old to go on a zip line through the rainforest.”
Which, of course, she did on this trip.
“Never look back,” she advised me, “Always have something to look forward to.”
As usual, I’m at least half a step behind her.
