Today as I meandered along I crossed an aged man doing likewise contrary to my course.
"Find any valuable coins in your wanderings today?" he quipped congenially.
Pulling my chin upward using it to point progressively, I retorted somewhat presumptuously, "Rather, I'm taking in those outlying mountains, and the sites about me…"
Head lowered slightly, grey eyes now with less glimmer still affixed squarely on mine, his eyebrow arched incredulously as he riposted, "Don't be overly predisposed to fancies of futurity at the expense of treasure at your feet." - ME (anecdotal quote based on true event)
