When I was thinking about all of the wonderful things there are to do and see and how little time I have to cram in as many good things as possible, I wondered if I could be happy if I couldn't DO things. I like to do things. I like to feel like I am accomplishing something. What if I was not able to move? I mean, two weeks on crutches was kind of depressing for me. It's hard to do things with your hands occupied! (I plan on living a long healthy life -- in case you were wondering).
I decided that if that ever happens, and I can't move much or accomplish the things I regularly do, I would have to get good at being like Dan -- getting lost in my imagination. Of course, my imagination wouldn't have me creating awesome animations or video games like Dan's does. I would create a vision of me doing things that I wish I could do -- like flying, or dancing in the clouds. Hopefully, while doing that, I would be able to pull up some gratitude for the things I can "do" without moving.
