Walking and reading. At the same time. I like to do it. Because it gives me a sense of accomplishment. Both physical and mental. Better than doing two activities separately. When they can be combined. Of course, I could chew gum, too. While walking and reading. Also, nothing would stop me. From  donning my earphones and tuning in soothing classical music as I walk and read and chew.  Four simultaneous pursuits. More proof of a wondrous multi-track approach to life. --Jim

I enjoy being alive. What more can I ask of life? Than to feel a vibrant pulse beat.  I’m up now. Watching the coming of dawn. Yes, sunset in reverse. I’ve watched many more sunsets than sunrises. I can’t remember my first sunset. But I remember a sunrise. I must have been 3 or 4 years old. In bed. When darkness suddenly became light. In the snap of the fingers. And I was astounded. Telling my mother. That I had seen the actual coming of a new day.  For the first time.  With my eyes wide open. --Jim
