15/365

January 15th
POTD:

WOTD:

eager : Excited by desire in the pursuit of any object; ardent to pursue, perform, or obtain.
Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday.
~Thomas Arnold (I've found this credited to Eleanor Roosevelt too)

No, I don't consider myself middle-aged yet, but I'm rounding the base. I'll probably find myself waist-deep in the middle of it before I know it hit me. :)
