Today at work a co-worker shared with me that her Dad had recently purchased a motorcycle. It was his lifelong dream, and at 64, he made it come true. Hearing this made my heart smile as she spoke of how it inspired her to never give up on your dreams. I responded, beaming, that it’s never too late, and if he sent her photos, I’d love to see them.
This brief moment made my whole day. I could just imagine his joy, not just the joy of riding, but of accomplishment, and I saw how it impacted my colleague. It reminded me of my own goals, and perhaps it was just what I needed to hear. When I check out I want to know that I lived life as full as I could. My bucket list won’t be complete, since I add things as fast as I check them off, but I’ll know I gave it a hell of a try.
So what is it that you want to look back on and be proud of? It’s never too late!
Kathleen – funny that your photo is an old VW packed to explore. The dream of the 60s, and I still think it would be fun if I could just find a way to pack the motorcycle on the back of it (Hauling a trailer – not my dream.)

Install some hooks and get a ramp and you have a mini toy hauler! 🙂
