Life Is Shorter Than You Think!

pic of tweet

Life is short, like a tweet; your days, like characters, are all used up, almost before you click TWEET.

Starting to realize how little time I have left. The multiple dreams of my youth laugh at me. Well, yes, I could have achieved THAT, if I had a 400 year lifespan and an unlimited supply of beta-blocker pills.

Please women in bed? Well, no, time or penis size or tongue agility doesn't seem to be a factor here for me: ain't gonna happen! Ever!

But most people's dreams are limited by time, and by personal application, by focus, by dedication, by nose to the grindstone. Or, in my case, by my addictions, my compulsions and the occasional perverse whim that becomes a habit.

Sometimes I feel like MY LIFE is drifting, falling, like a soon-to-be-dead leaf separated from my tree.

P.S. -- What's your pleasure? Rake? Or leaf blower?

Cathy DuPont Very clever post, Harv.

Too many words to Tweet in its entirety though. Too bad.

Rake.

Harv Griffin Thanks, Cathy!

Well, that's what started this GoodReads blog: "the extra spice that didn't fit into the tweet." My GoodReads blog doesn't go to my GoodReads timeline anymore, so I've started spewing it over to AREA 47 and HOW NOT TO SELL eBOOKS.

@hg47

P.S. -- You're so cute when you rake me into a pile.

And you're so cute when you're in that pile! No blowing for me...oops, I could expand on that but then would be getting into uncharted territory on your blog.

Glad you discovered GR and glad we're friends! Goodreads offers you an opportunity to make a bigger pile of leaves.
