John Y’s Musings from the Middle: Random Thoughts

I have. And would.

But when that feeling of self-disgust comes over me I can never figure out how to properly do it without a two-way mirror and one is never handy.

Whenever I get this question, I have to try very hard not to say, “Yes, I sure do! Thank you!”

Because I have learned– over time— that isn’t the correct answer. In fact, as it turns out, it’s not even a real or serious question.

On the other hand, I have never asked that question…..because I know already what the likely answer is going to be.

Poet Robert Frost famously wrote that he “took the road less traveled by” and said that had made “all the difference.”

But I wonder now if later in life he still felt the same way. Or wished he’d taken the more mainstream and conventional path that would have helped him prepare for retirment better.
