Subject: [Homestead] Go gentle into that good night

I suppose it's inevitable that I'd add this to the thread, but do
you all
intend to "go gentle into that good night"??
Dylan's exhortation was to fulfill one's passions. He apparently did
not foresee that one might run out of passions. Seems to me the issue
is of energy and habit formed by long purposeful activity.
I have always had more interests, more passions, than I have time to
fulfill. My intention is to continue living as long as I am enjoying
life by pursuing those passions. I expect to run out of time before I
run out of passions. I expect that as physical strength wanes I will
change activity focus. My last days may well be a return to writing
what might be useful to others.
