    Thanks Neil,
    Truly sage advise. And timely in my case. It seems I spend far too much time enjoying the wrong things in life.
    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.

    Neil,

    I really enjoyed this article and you make a good point on ending up with nothing but "stuff" if you are not careful. I am very happy for you and Dee and wish you both many, many years together and look forward to the articles you both post on FAOL.

    Thanks to both of you....

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.

    Default Well said

    Thanks. Too often we don't recognize the greater value of our sport and only count or measure to credit success.

    Don't mean to "hijack" this thread, but, welcome Pete, to FAOL.

    Theres alot more going on here that the reader may not fully grasp, I call that experience, someone who has been there done that and has the T-shirt, Thank you Sir for your write up on this, and I hope and pray that I am able to fully grasp it the way I should, because I want to live out the rest of this life the way I am supposed to, to get the most out of it. I have a gift, and thats today.
