My sister died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. I can't remember how many times I was refused when I called her to go to lunch. She would say to me: “I can't. I have clothes on the line.”“My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday.” “I had a late breakfast.” “It looks like rain.” Only after her death did I choose to be a little more flexible (机敏的).
Life is not made up of things that you do at a particular time, but it demands variety and adventure. As we grow older, the list of promises made to ourselves may get longer. Perhaps one morning, when we awaken,we will find to our surprise that our life is full of “I'm going to”,“I plan to” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”
My seizethemoment friend is open to adventure and ready at any moment to make a new start. She keeps an open mind about new ideas. Her great interest in life is contagious. With her around you, you may trade your bad feet for good shoes.
