Still very impatient, I wanted the whole deal right away.
That's why I related so well to the story
about a wide-eyed new person and an oldtimer.
When the newcomer approached the oldtimer,
envying his accomplishments and many years of sobriety,
the oldtimer slapped down his hand like a gavel and said,
"I'll trade you even!
My thirty years for your thirty days--right now!"
He knew what the newcomer had yet to find out:
that true happiness is found in the journey,
not the destination.

Thought to Ponder....

The joy is in the journey, so enjoy the ride.
