Someone I know told me once : “There is nothing wrong with the way you do things. You need to practice. Practice is never lost or in vain, you always learn and you always improve and it is never a waste of time.”
I spend lots of time remembering that. James Taylor says the secret to life is enjoying the passage of time. Now, add that to my life’s study and stir.
Yep, happiness.
I didn’t have the chance to tell him that when I met him last year, but he already knew it – he wrote it.
