to front only the essential facts of life,
and see if I could not learn what it had to teach,
and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
– Walden, Henry David Thoreau
PB, you Crusty Old Sea Dog, in the last year you've switched from surfing to SUP, given up espressos for weak soy lattes (?!) and more recently gone vego. But man, nobody could call you soft. I'm so relieved that since having a family you're (apparently) more cautious in the big waves.

the surf has been insane lately, glad he's been taking it easy! ;)

Go PB, go! Walden sounds amazing. Is this the book you're reading at the moment? Inspiring? Don't go moving bush seeking life's answers too soon. We all still need you here in blog land. Kellie xx
ReplyDeleteI'm actually Reading Circle of Simplicity, by Cecile Andrews, but she quotes Thoreau throughout the book – it's definitely next on my list! x
