Donny what a blessing to have a dad that is still with you. I am not putting you down but your dad looks great; and judging from the last picture of you he is a lot pretty. (smile)

We were there with open arms to except our younger years. Now we find it difficult to accept our latter years. I have tried my best to accept life as one whole story. The running across an open field with arms flying and leaning on a cane to help you to walk is all one story. I look at my life in this manner.
My job is to embrace today and keep focused on my many blessings.
I have 8 guitars, 3 keyboards, a piano, a house that is paid off, a new car, 4 children, 11 grandchildren, and a bunch of great grandchildren. I never had any of that stuff earlier in my life.

Live each day as if it were your last day, John C (Life is good)

PS, I read a book called “Battlefields of the Mind”. What did I learn? If you spend the beginning of your day with negatives, you have just told your mind to mess up the rest of your day. You programed your mind to fail.

Our friend Gary will tell you about the negatives in his life but he always ends his story with a positive. When I saw the picture of his flowers I knew he was going to be alright.

When I decided/accepted that I was going to die; like everyone else, I began to enjoy my life, John C.
