#InkTober #InkTober2025 #InkTober2025Day8 #InkTober2025Day8Reckless

InkTober 2025 31 Day Drawing Challenge prompt Reckless. Drawing depicts scene from the 1988 movie Big where a kid makes a wish on a Zoltar fortune telling machine to be Big. This fits the prompt of “reckless” because only when you are older do you realize how fast time goes by. To wish away one’s own youth to be a grown up is kinda reckless.

Sitting in the theater with my best friend, both of us oldest daughters, this song caught us off guard and we both sat there crying like fools.

I call it Oldest Child Syndrome. You are example for the others. Must do your best at all times. Be a good example. Be perfect. Don't act up or act out.

Cadenza Music - ask for Scott Mims and let him know you were sent by Andy and I.

Especially for woodwinds repair, other music store shops are lacking repair technician chops.

Dilly Dally!!! I haven't heard that one in a long while. Need to say this more often and bring it back. What an adorable term!

With respect, we can survive bad people.

We've done it before, many times.

We can do it again.

YES! Years ago I had a friend that wanted forgiveness for their past mistakes as a bigot. My words were that some masks you don't just get to try on and after a couple of decades say, "whoopsie daisy" and think that all burned bridges are repairable. The world is big. Make new friends and do better.
