This too shall pass.
Those of us of a certain age might remember long road trips with friends, all of whom were expected to pitch in for gas. And maybe push the car to compression start it when the old battery went dead. And napping as best you could on a hot summer afternoon in the back seat of a car without air-conditioning. And any number of other hardships that were hardly hardships.
We’ve gone soft.

The beauty of traveling was ruined for me by the fact that I have all the money I could need, but no time to go anywhere with it.

Ran into an elegant old gentleman in my travels who said something that I keep thinking about. He said “As I continue to travel, I now find myself in a race to see which runs out first, my money or my time. I fear it will be my time.”
