About Me
- CowboyBob
- I am known by many names and epithets. I answer to all of them if I hear and know you want me. I look down and wonder. The costume I wear changes without my permission and becomes less functional daily. It is not me. I am a story teller, seeker, trailblazer (in more ways than imagined), lover, teacher, and friend of the Lord. I love mornings, evenings, babies, and old folks. I love youth, energy, faith, and optimism. I love experience, wisdom, and adventure. I love change most of the time, though I do not like aging. I love the outdoors in all seasons in all places. I hate apathy, fear, and all forms of narrow mindedness and judgment. I love love. And light. I love sharing. I love learning. My best teachers are my family. My single best teacher and lover is Dreampacker. I have special yearnings I hope someday to share with others as they become fulfilled. I often feel no one knows me, not the deep, inside, real me. Many see me only as they used to, or expect to, or in the role they think I'm playing. I am more.

Well, just because.
Unfortunately I think they call it...human nature!
Or, like, waiting to back-up files until it's 10 min. too late [Grr. Stupid malware.] Yeah. I hear ya.
The Greeks had it nailed with their word metanoeo (trans. in Eng. as "repent"). It literally means "to think about after-the-fact," as in, "I think I should have done this earlier/not done this at all."
Because there are so many other necessary tasks that needed doing first.
I am one of those that the quote was made for... "If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done!"
I am glad that Judy is all right and your hearing aid was found - good luck with the stove top!!
I recently ran across a quote I'm 99% sure you've read before:
"Eventually, though, awareness must also lead to action. Often we hear our subconscious voices warning us to put a quart of antifreeze in the car or to re-roof the house, but we keep putting it off. Then we are dismayed when the car won't start or the plaster is ruined."
