Tomorrow never comes. But there’s always tomorrow. In the big picture, those two sentences aren’t mutually exclusive. It’s why I say “ride the wind” when it’s windy…drink up when it rains. Sunbathe when others complain of the heat. Your days here on earth are very, very short. Don’t take yourself so seriously that you can’t sieze the moment with the enthusiasm of kids.

Maybe right now you’re in the middle of your weekend, and you just happened to take a break to see what sort of writing for kids Tony shared today. If so, thank you for that.
