Energy
















My granddaughter Cassie came over today after I finished playing golf and taking a nap. With her was her son Kameron who is almost three. He is almost two in the picture to the left and has grown so much in a year. He has so much energy it is exhausting. It is a logical question to ask why so much energy is wasted on the young. Perhaps in an earlier time we humans needed to quickly train our bodies so we could survive but today less physical energy might be more helpful so we could sit still and learn. Perhaps the world has changed faster than our ability to adapt. I was sitting in my gravity recliner beach chair aching from some entertaining exercise and he was non stop motion. I haven't seen him since last summer and you can see the change from one picture to the next. He loves sports already and can really hit a baseball. I guess somethings do come naturally. Yesterday he was hitting a golf ball and chasing it, then he decided he would fetch the ball when we through it like the dog retrieves a stick, also using his mouth mind you. He is a cute kid but I am exhausted this morning just thinking about it. He wore me out so much I may not play golf this morning until later.
