Keep all the Joy you can get!

Keep all the Joy you can get!

A while back I went to our local transfer station. It has a give and take area where you can leave things you're fairly sure someone else might want.   As luck should have it, I saw an old ECX AMP Crush monster truck! I grabbed it, and headed off to my next stop.
When I got there an older lady walked by and gave me a weird look (probably because I was playing with a toy car) 

I asked her "whats up" and she said her nephew plays with " those things" and "she just doesn't understand it".
I thought about it a moment and said. "Well, Quads are toys. Ski doo's are toys, trucks cars, boats, planes, guns, guitars, drums... all toys. I guess mine just keeps me honest about it." She looked at me. Smiled and said "We do own a lot of fishing rods" ....
When most things we tackle everyday take us out of the moment . Out of that place where you remember what it was like before things " got complicated ".

Its important to remember life's to short to worry what others think.
We all started this life care free and full of wonder and I say.
Keep all the joy you can get.

The Tinker.
