No Regrets
Having spent some time here in the world of Steem, we have been discussing a lot of things. One of which is if we are too late in life to be taking on this adventure. Scott wanted to talk a bit about what his thoughts were on living our life with no regrets. Too often we decide something can't be done because we are too old, but Scott and I aren't about to allow that to happen to us.
While we may wish that we could have started sooner, we can’t. We can only start where we are. We cannot change the things that we regret from our past, we can only try to live our lives so that our future selves do not look back and regret the choices we make today. None of us know how many days we have left, so we cannot afford to waste any of them. Figure out your purpose in life and start doing it now because now is all you truly have.
Tulsa Arboretum
We visited Woodward Park in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for the backdrop of this heart to heart discussion. You can find this park at the 21st and Peoria intersection. This 45-acre park was once owned by one of the first Tulsans, Helen Woodward, and was named in her honor. Here you will find the Tulsa Rose Gardens, Tulsa Historical Society, and the statue Appeal to the Great Spirit by Cyrus Dallin.

Want to have your post on the map too?
Have a deep look in your hearts. There should be a tiny sparkle there. This is you when you were a child. A famous writer once stated in his book "Yo-ho-ho"
Here is this girl who reminds me of me when I was 12. She reminds me of me as I am nowadays.
Precisely! I make gum bubbles and I throw the chewing gum when there is no sauce left.
In other words, if it is not too early, it can't be too late.
To Life!
Oh, that is a great quote and photo! I love her spirit! The funny thing is, Scott chews gum all the time. It drives me crazy sometimes. He also spits it out when there is "no sauce left." Sillies. Just love you both! As for being childish, I am a huge swing lover! I love to get on swings and get my feet off the ground. It reminds me of being a kid.

Maybe Steven Tyler /Aerosmith/ makes the worst chewing gum spitter. He shoots miles away. Hahaha.
Ooooh, I also love swing music. Welcome to the club.
Oh, he makes me cringe when I see him chewing gum!

Hhaahahhahah. Crazy!
Hhaahahhahah. Crazy!
I absolutely love this post. We are wanting to travel, but are wondering if we are "too young" instead of too old. We do not want regrets, but we do still have two teens at home to finish raising. Working on getting things in place to financially allow for freedom of location. Hope your day is great and I look forward to reading more of your adventures.
Traveling with kids is tougher. You have to put their needs first, and sometimes your needs have to wait.
Certainly we couldn't have started this till the kids were on their own.
