If I told you I had plans on one day traveling to
Nepal and my dream was to climb Mt. Everest.
And had you not heard from me over time, you may
then wonder how all that worked out. Did he make
it or not?
Or, on my bucket list I have added a raft trip down
the Amazon River from its source in the Andes
Mountains of Peru to an end in Brazil, emptying
into the Atlantic Ocean. Months may pass, and
upon hearing from me again, you may ask if had
accomplished my adventurous goal?
Most of you who know me would surmise that
I’m not the kind of guy who would likely make
perilous and venturesome treks such as those.
He’s a temperamental artist and writer, you say,
who tends to participate in less physical and more
ruminative activities.
Perhaps you were thinking that I may have played
Blackjack on a trip to Las Vegas and won $25. Well
actually it turned out to be more like $50. Either
way, that would seem to be more typical for the
likes of me.
Anyway, should my absence one day cause you
to wonder whatever became of me? And in the
event you were curious as to what I’ve been up
to, you needn’t worry. Irregardless of what came
between us back then, you and I have now man-
aged to wind up right here, reading the last line
of this piece on the very same page.
If it’s not you I’m talking to, so sorry, then it has
got to be someone else.
