Well, to some extent I'd agree with you Brum. But I also like to thing you learn more from your mistakes than from your successes <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Today I scoot through skyline in a day less than I did then, even though I'm a lot older and a lot heavier. I probably carry 1/3 what I carried on my back than I did then. I ain't 16 anymore, but there's something to be said for the wisdom of experience <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

All true, my friend, looking back I recognize the amelioration that experience as allowed me, but I can't help but miss the innocence of those days. With all of my mistakes, bad decisions, and very poor choices of my youth, I guess God graded me on a scale of effort, and not result. I suppose the proof in that is that I'm still here, and I for one, am immensely thankful to Him. I give no credit to myself. If it were left up to me, even with all of my wisdom, I could not even cause my own heart to continue beating, no matter how hard I would try. Brum
