In the fine tradition of college students everywhere, Ann and I spent a lovely day walking by the beach and shopping at Fashion Island. Despite setting off the Forever 21 security alarms twice, we had a lovely time. Earlier as walked along Newport Avenue we discussed our plans to build life goals and plans for ourselves, my new job, Ann's life pursuing her seminary degree and I made the comment, "Isn't it amazing that we don't need to do all that to get to retirement so we can relax? We are talking a long walk and enjoying the outdoors on a Wednesday afternoon when the rest of the world is toiling away to get ahead. I think we're already ahead."
Why should I stress myself out to get where I already am? Amen.
