Pleased to Meet You?

But...
Who are you?
Are you living your dreams?
Are you stuck in a job you hate and too afraid to take a chance on making your dreams real? Have you forgotten desire and passion? Who stole that from you? Worse? Why did you let that happen? If you've lost touch with who you are, you have, plain and simple. You are selling out.
Who are you? Are you lying to your friends, your kids, your parents, your wife, yourself? Is what you say true? Are you consumed by having your cake and eating it too? Do you care? Can you tell the difference? Do you ever tell the truth? If not, then you're a liar. Don't kid yourself.
Who are you? Are you a good friend? Generous with your time, not selfish? Not cruel? Do you use people? Do you ever actually listen? Do you make promises you don't keep? Ignore people in need? Yes? Then you're not a good friend. Do it different.
Who are you? Do you know how to love? Yourself? Others? The planet? People who don't "mean" anything to you? Things that are not relevant to you, but to others, to the greater good?
Who will you be when you are 80? If you're not being true to yourself now-change it, or when you're 80 you'll still be a liar, someone who gave up on dreams, a poor friend, a human who lost touch with love. Only you'll be slower and sicker and wondering what on earth you were thinking.
Who are you? For the love of all that is good, answer the question. The sun will set on your life, as it will mine.

Brilliant stuff here, too. I'd never have thought to write a post that's almost all questions. Probably because it takes a long attention span to come up with a list like this one.
Cheers!

As big as they are, they still move around their pens silently and smoothly. Beautiful, but kind of unnerving to watch.
Nice kitty.

It was quite an honor as most people are not even allowed in the outter cage.

It beats the experience my brother had when we were 6-8 years old. A male lion stood about 30 feet away and pissed across his cage, across the females cage next to it and hit my brother on the shoe, it stunk for a long time. Damn funny though.
