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


I rather firmly believe that in at least a few cases the only reason I'm around today after some of the idiotic stunts of my youth was that God was far too busy laughing at my stupidity to be distracted by such trivial matters as deciding that it was my time. Nowadays at my age I figure he'll think I should know better - so I show a little more discretion <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
