In the mean time I have been living. My life has been revealed to me as a poem; each stanza a surprise. It has been an adventure. You might call me Odysseus or Percival or Skywalker but I don't think I would answer you, if you did.

Percival |
Skywalker about to start his adventure |
As things turned out, I wasn't rich when I turned sixteen. Nor was I famous soon after. I stopped playing the lottery. I still have a goal of becoming a great photographer. I'm not sure how that will fit into my life before the last line is written.
As for now, I am off to London for 10 days to visit my eldest princess and her new prince. A grand adventure. I've planned to bring my camera. I wish I could stay longer to look for the golden grail. My goal is to slay my dragon "Thou-shalt" with the spirit of my lion "I will."
I wonder if I am more the Don Quixote type?
