IT WAS VERY EARLY in the morning, and we were on the road trailering horses to a show. Rain was falling as we pulled into a gas station at 5 a.m. to fill up. "Where are you going with those horses?" the man at the next pump queried. "To a show," I answered. "You horse people must be crazy, going to something like that in this kind of weather," he commented. "What brings you out so early on such a nasty day?" I asked. "I'm going fishing," the man replied.

We either want more than we need or settle for less than we deserve, and we never seem to understand what we're doing wrong at the time. - John Gierach
