Wish I still had time with my sister. She was killed in a car accident a year and a half ago. She was always smiling and never had a harsh word to say about anyone. She left behind 3 small children. I keep her (their) two horses at my place now and call them up for the kids to pet. I'm not one to get teared up over much but when I see those kids having such a good time around those horses and saying, "Mama told us that..." Well, you can imagine. Why can't we choke down the urge to get gone when right now is the most important.

Hey B.O., let your words to the wise suffice. If you guys out there are squabbling with your Brothers or Sisters about silly nonsense, knock it off right away. Life is way too short.
