  • Description

    I had an old friend who was having severe health issues - I asked him gently, "How's it going Dave?" He said, "Oh God please let's not talk about our problems - Before you know it, it'll turn into an organ recital!" I got a good laugh out of that one, but more importantly I heard the wisdom - There is more to life than complaining, grousing about the unfairness of it - I will rage against the dying light, make jest of it, make music of the soul and hope I might be remembered as one with them, the - Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight.
