A Tribute to Pooh …<br />
Part 03: The Meaning of Life<br />
& <strong>the</strong> Meaning in Living<br />
(01/18/2015)<br />
Winnie <strong>the</strong> Pooh's ―fa<strong>the</strong>r‖ -- A. A. Milne -- was born 133 years ago today,<br />
and I honor both him & his creations with this third tribute: a reminder that <strong>the</strong><br />
Meaning of Life is already waiting to be found within all our everyday lives; that<br />
each & every one of us can<br />
simply sit and watch a river<br />
flow by and remember<br />
everything we need to know.<br />
Of course, <strong>the</strong> ―catch‖<br />
here is a large one -- namely,<br />
that <strong>the</strong> great <strong>Wisdoms</strong> we<br />
remember in this way will<br />
mean absolutely nothing to us<br />
unless we get up, grab <strong>the</strong> hand<br />
of our nearest Friend, and set<br />
forth to put <strong>the</strong>m in motion.<br />
―Sometimes, if you stand on <strong>the</strong> bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to<br />
watch <strong>the</strong> river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know<br />
everything <strong>the</strong>re is to be known.‖ ~ inspired by A. A. Milne<br />
―Before beginning a Great Quest, it is wise to ask someone what you are<br />
looking for before you begin looking for it.‖ ~ inspired by A. A. Milne<br />
