You may find this odd, but here it is. Yesterday morning in the darkness of the church, I had this calm, but very clear vision/sensation/feeling -- and I even mentioned it to Mom in the evening -- that I was going to live to be a healthy and productive 100-years old. Maybe it's because the narrator of my new manuscript is 100. Regardless, when I got up this morning, Brad sent me an email with a quote from the book he's currently reading.
"...this 95 year old man came hiking twenty five miles over the mountain. Know why he could do it? Because no one ever told him he couldn't. No one ever told him he oughta be off dying somewhere in an old age home."
from Born to Run by Christopher McDougall
