The wisdom of the Cherokees (part 21)

"How many…rewards we have missed because we resisted something that looked like too much responsibility."

The wisdom of the Sequichie of the Cherokees

I am slowly learning to live closer to the edge.

I don't mean bungee jumping, or cocaine, or speed dating, or anything like that….

I mean saying "Yes" to an unexpected plan, or accepting a new volunteer task on the spur of the moment, or moving to another state, or stuff like that….

For most of my life, I didn't realize that the edge is so interesting.
