Preservation

This morning I was taking a walk on the Moon. It’s one of my favorite ways to exercise.

I suddenly came apon the place where Neil Armstrong took his first walk on the Moon. I was so excited to be there. I saw his footprints and I was in awe. I remembered my parents letting me stay up late so I could watch it live on TV.

I tried to be very careful and not step on the footprints, but it was hard because they were all over the place.

Finally I got frustrated and said, “What’s the point?!” and I stepped all over them.

Once you make something special, you can destroy your life trying to maintain it.
