One of my dreams over the past 20 years has been to ride a BMW R 1250 GS Adventure motorcycle. When I retired a few years ago, I bought my motorcycle and began to ride. Nearly a year ago, I ordered a new leather jacket to reward myself for improving my riding. My life and priorities have changed a bit these days.
John, I love where you took this article. To see how you refined it into so many powerful life lessons, all wonderfully brought together, is really impressive. Great work.
My favorite parts were the reflections on knowing ourselves, and the discussion of how we change in online creative groups. Those really hit home.
Loved this. Such a great topic. Several lights went off as I read:
As humans we change second by second, so what grabs our attention or the things we seek also change. Media consumption should be a balance of walking into familiar and new ice cream stores and going with familiar or new and inspiring flavors depending on our mood, need?

Michael, thank you for my first comment and subscription! I just learned about avacados from your SubStack. I am quite interested in avacados; ate one yesterday as a matter of fact.
John, I love this! The analogies you use are perfect. It's a fun read and makes you think about life and your life choices. Can't wait to read more!
Thank you, Rose. I am glad you liked it.

Thank you, Latham. Really appreciate your kind words.
And thank you for the helpful input as well.
After all these years I am still trying to figure myself out.
WOP has been very helpful.

See you in the forums. 👋🏻
I recently over-indexed on avacados in Mexico. Gained 5 lbs. Beware!
5...FIVE!! pounds. Wow. I will be careful. Got to get some rest, but I will read more of your stuff tomorrow. In the meantime check this out...
