[QUOTE="fwdoz, post: 628603, member: 18597"] They can be quite similar in a lot of ways. Gold & fish can not be in todays spot, but move a tad the next day & you hit paydirt. Weather can help your odds, fish with an erratic barometer & rain uncovering enough soil to enable a find. Some days are donuts, and other days you bag out. but the important one for me is: People say "you did not catch any fish or find any gold this time...god thats boring". To them I say "what is boring about fresh air, beautiful views like snow capped mountains & standing in a gushing stream inches away from catching a wild Trout, or in our unique Australian bush with native animals knowing I may be inches from the nugget of a lifetime. Life is not about always getting everything that you want every time, but at least I am living & enjoying my life & stopping to take notice of the beauty that surrounds us, rather than whingeing about not getting what I wanted" Here endeth the lesson.
