Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

by my favorite poet, Mary Oliver

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

“If you are losing faith in human nature, go out and watch a marathon.” ― Kathrine Switzer, 26.2: Marathon Stories

 I’m older now but still running against the wind.

     I just read a recent study about international participation in marathons. The highest growth in participation in 2015 was in the age group 90-99 at 41.36 %.  The age group 90-99 also had the highest overall growth in participation from 2014-2017 with an increase of 34.74%.  
     That is incredible!  Go seniors.  It gives me so much hope.
