I have been at death's door more because of a situation where I was hit by an oncoming car and not hurt, or fell down many feet before reaching the ground and lived to tell about it.
That kind of thing. I never had some illness that could have wiped me out. I think life is a gift. It is not one I would necessarily have accepted were I given a choice from what I can see from this vantage point. Life is precious, but it is more precious to me when it is another's life. I really feel like it doesn't matter to me either way concerning my own.
I generally live out my days trying to make them pleasant and it doesn't have a 100 percent success rate. I wish I could be one of those people who loves everything and appreciates everything, because that is a true gift.
I just do the best I can and try to survive without begging in the streets.
