I I received a birthday card that stood somewhere between comical and serij ous. It stated: “Sorry this is late. Guess you knew that sooner or later I'd send you a card - but gee whiz. Pm Sorrv that sooner is what it ain't and later is ! what it jsT That will hold you for a while! And pinch you awake as you remember all those things you promised yourself you would do: that trip "down home" to visit the kin: a long overdue letter still unwritten, that kindly phone call not yet dialed. “Sooner is what it ain't.’’ W hat about those things you promised yourself? The unread “good book?" The lazy day and walk through the park? Sometimes we discover that we live life in the land of “later is what it is." Gone are those precious persons who could have lighted our lives, and we theirs. Gone are the golden opportunities to touch and be touched by hosts of ! persons standing at our door knocking. “l ater is what it is." and we stand over the stone markers of unseized privi- j leges and weep, knowing that s^h markers could have been monuments to j achieved-moments hut instead they are tombstones to failed causes.
