By the time I
reached the sea,
I knew I could do far worse than
to live life like the Yukon:
keep moving but find places to slow down.
Don't go straight at the expense of
meandering.
Nurture others; accommodate
both change and attrition.
Savor the element
of
surprise. Be gracious,
accepting, resilient.
- Jill Fredston, Rowing
to Latitude
