My dad has coffee (or a diet Pepsi in his case) every morning at the local Dairy Queen. Recently, one of them said, "J.D. You are 83 years old. You just planted 2 pecan trees, new grape vines and got a puppy. You are the most optimistic person I know." (He also just bought 2 pair of peacock/peahens!)
Daddy replied, "Well, if someone hadn't planted a pecan tree, I wouldn't have had one. If someone hadn't planted grapes, I wouldn't have been able to enjoy them and if I die, someone will take care of the dog."
That's my dad! Hope I grow up to be just like him! He's awesome!!!!
(By the way, I'm 54 years old. That comment about DRASTICALLY different ages in the "Who We Are" box....well, I represent that remark!)
