    Life means you've ALREADY won the lottery. It shouldn't be wasted..  Look.  YOU were a 300,000,000 to ONE shot in your very first race, and you WON..

    Great answer!!  And great music.  You failed to mention great music.  Beethoven, for example.

    You're right.  Music is a big one.  An evening out at the symphony, a concert, a play,.... I know I failed to mention many more, i.e. reading a great book, seeing a great movie, finding something that you thought you lost,... the list just goes on.

    Thanks for a great question Flip.

  • Someone to share your ups and down.
    And *big grin* somebody to laugh at your jokes.

    In the worst of times, the saddest of times, the most mundane of times, I have never questioned that life is worth living.
