Decision

Today I decided to stop growing up and acting my age. Acting one's age is such a bore, not to mention a metaphysically spurious occupation. After all, what is age? It is rather like asking, "what is the Real?", which leads to an endless regression of questions stretching out into infinity and beyond (unless you answer simply "God" - but that might sound pantheistic). Anyway, you could spend your life asking such questions, and then you die. And what will you have to show for it? A life lived 'acting one's age', that's what. I would prefer my epitaph to say, "A trifle silly, but fun (in a serious sort of way)." I imagine that most epitaphs read something ghastly like, "he was dead while he was alive, and then his body agreed to join in."

I'm though acting my age: it is time to frolic.
