We become who we are.
You can't judge a book by its cover but you can by its first few chapters and most certainly by it's last.
Revenge is too easy and over so quickly.
I would hope for more than that.
Have you ever sailed across an ocean? On a sailboat surrounded by sea with no land in sight? Without even the possibility of sighting land for days to come? Standing at the helm of destiny? I want that just one time. I want to be in the Piazza del Campo in Sienna feeling the surge as ten race horses go thundering by.
I want to experience a meal in Paris at the prestigious Lam Bosi In the Place des Vosges. I want a bottle of wine and then another. I want the warmth of a woman, the love of my life and a cool set of sheets. One night of Jazz at the Vanguard. I want to stand on summits like the King I am and smoke Cubans. The shimmer & warmth of the Sun on my face for as long as I can.
Walk on the Great Wall & marvel at its mysteries. Climb the Tower. Ride the River. Stare at the Frescos. I want to sit in the Garden and read one more good book. Most of all I want to sleep, I want to sleep like I did when I was a boy. Without a care in the world. Give me that just one time.
