Olympic Dreams
I have never really had a serious list of things I would like to do before I die, perhaps because I have irrationally exhausted immeasurable amounts of energy worrying about death and disease instead of thinking about how I would like to live my life. But the other night I started reading Sue Monk Kidd and Ann Kidd Taylor’s dual memoir Traveling with Pomegranates which opens with a mother/daughter trip to Greece. I want to travel among the Grecian aisles and study the country’s ancient history and mythology but I now long to run a lightning fast 400 meters on the ancient Olympic track!
