BLAST FROM THE PAST — by Steve Nadis
A friend forwarded a note to me from a woman who’d been our housemate in 1981. Though I always thought she was nice, I didn’t know her very well at the time and was pleased and surprised to hear she’d gone on to live a life of travel and adventure, even chronicling her experiences in a recently-published book. If I were to have guessed 27 years ago, I would have assumed that I’d have been the one to have traveled more. But I would have guessed wrong as she’s definitely seen more of the world than I have. And she’s now the wiser for it.
On the other hand, I have legitimate reasons for my sedentary lifestyle. After all, somebody’s got to sit here and type idle thoughts into my computer. For if I don’t do it, who will?
