Thursday Aug. 25, 2005 - Year 3, Day 158 - life moves pretty fast
dog & owner sprint to the park & back . . . the air is VERY fresh rain stopped, 7C, clearing up to be a great day
a work day with no work planned . . . a day off . . . what a switch
a day off . . . just taking it - KK is taking me golfing
KK is the hardest working smartest guy I know . . by a large margin; that he would take a day off to play is his just reward for countless hours of midnight oil; that he would give up a day of billable hours to play golf with a friend is a substantial investment . . . that he would want to spend it with me is a high honour . .
I was looking for an appropriate quotes to frame thise day . . many would do nicely, but these say it best of all:
"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."- Ferris Bueller
“If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z, X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut. “ - Albert Einstein
it seems Ferris & Albert recognized that play is critical !
connecting with friends/musers:
great lunch yesterday . . thanks BC for your hospitality & interest + saw GH on the way out; friends both new & old, it seems, are just around the corner; last night’s Toastmasters meeting was a great turnout on a rainy summer night, my speech rocked - we are still wrestling with the room set up in the new venue; MB’s retirement from REIX farewell this evening . . . I’m gone miss his calm steady hand on the tiller; smart guy, nice guy, take-it-slow guy, humble guy . . . a style to learn much from; KK is warming up on the range . . I think it’s been a year since we whacked the white dimpled ball together . . gotta run !
