In reply to the discussion: Wild Turkey [View all]H2O Man
(73,506 posts)54. Thank you!
My brother lived a good life, lots of adventures. I find myself thinking of him and the good times we had. I think that we are born with a certain number of days in our hands. The separation we experience is tough -- there is no greater pain that I've seen that a parent losing a child -- but is part of the life cycle. The late boxing trainer Cus D'Amato used to say that nature is a great educator: when we hit a certain age, we begin losing family and friends, old friends from school and former co-workers. Then we recognize what the future holds for us, and begin to enjoy the littlest of things fully.

I had missed this, but I always thought Trumps Rally speeches sound like a hypnosis show.
