We are still sorting through boxes that were quickly stacked in our rush to move this past January. That led me to the basement over the weekend to sort through a few odds and ends that seemed to be better off at Goodwill than our basement. But then there were a few items that seemed better to be packed into my "trunk" which is a virtual time capsule of my high school and college days.
Now-where did I put the trunk? I just found that while cleaning out the closet. So this morning I pulled out the trunk and once I opened it, realized that everything became a jumbled mess in the move. So I began to pull out the relics, and ruins, from my past and came across something I wrote in October of 1985....25 years ago when I was a naive 17 year old.
"only when I live my life at its very best will it be a benefit to others, only a life lived to benefit others is a life worth living"
The words stung.
Then I came across the picture above (that's PNW on the right) and remembered who it was that wrote those words. I think that helped reset my compass so to speak.

Is that Bobby Darren??? 50's teen heart throb???
funny word verification on this last post "bunreer"
I really should spell check more often "Darin"
ok-I had to go looking for a picture of Bobby Darin, 'cause I didn't have a clue. I don't see the resemblance...nor can I understand how that guy was a heart throb.
