However I have so much that is new to learn which is slowing my progress ... after reading your post, I don't feel so negative about that anymore. :) "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven" (Ecclesiastes 3:1 KJV).

Your message is spot on in our day and age. I appreciate how your cameos from the past and present confirm that message. Life passes in a flash, so we might as well enjoy it with plenty of reflection as we go. Your cruise sounds great. Paula Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02079952414990463270noreply@blogger.com
