Oh, and I really like jawjaw's thoughts on this. The eternal optimist!

May all of us remember to have a life as we grow older...and think happy thoughts and share them with our loved ones.

Yes people get sick and have surgeries but we have to rise above all the mess in life and continue to see the blessings.

I'd also like to share that there are people who live with life threatening diseases and you'd mever know it.

My husband is one of those people because he lives every single day with Type I diabetes. Many of our friends don't even know he does shots, let alone as many as 4 a day. He very quietly disappears and does blood tests and injections and people don't even know.

I admire hin...what can I say?
