Do you have at least one regret from this lifetime?
I would have loved to have been a dad. It would have been great to take a son on the same adventures my dad took me. I also would have taught him the kind of compassion and the willingness to spend time and energy rescuing abandoned cats very late at night. (At one time, he had 12 cats in his downstairs bedroom.)
Dad taught me to reach out and hug a poor derelict wino one moment, and a wealthy "movie star" in the next. (He had a store in the famous movie colony of Palm Springs.) Dad loved telling corny jokes and making people laugh.)
Even just months before he died he continued hiking the wilderness areas of our local National Park (Joshua Tree) He knew the park better than the rangers did and other than his cancer was probably in better physical shape than the rangers.
I miss you dad. RIP!
