Re: Rip Van Winkle

Thank you Ross. It's always a pleasure to read your columns. This one is very positive. It reminded me somehow of The Highwayman by Johnny Cash.

Quote:
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again, and again.
By the way there is a Rip Van WInkle figure in Japanese legend. Urashima Taro.

we can make our minds so like still water, and so live for a moment with a clearer, perhaps even with a fiercer life
